DAVID BUSH, a prominent citizen, was born in Washington County, Ind., on
the 1st of June, 1831, being the fifth of a family of twelve children,
born to Daniel and Franey (Sears) Bush.  His father was a native of
Virginia, from which Sate he immigrated to Indiana at a very early day. 
His mother was a native of Kentucky.  She came to Indiana in 1812,
settling in Harrison County.  David was reared on the farm, and had very
poor advantages of schools; owning to the want of early public funds and
schoolhouses, he secured only the rudiments.  He remained at home with his
parents until their deaths, that of the father occurring in 1845, and that
of the mother in 1884.  In 1865 he married Jane Porter, and to these
paents have been born two children, both living:  Oliver and Enoch.  Mr.
Bush is a member of the Christian Church, and contributes liberally to its
support, and to all enterprises to benefit the public.  In politics he is
a Republican, but is not radical in his views.  He is a farmer and
stock-raiser, which pursuits he has followed during his life.  The county
has no better people than his family, and no citizen whose name is freer
from reproach.
