Kentucky History
Capt. William Bush was one of Daniel Boone's crew that helped blaze the Wilderness Trail into Kentucky from the Cumberland Gap. The road crew rendezvoused at the Long Island of Holston which was North Carolina, but now east Tennessee. Capt. William Bush joined the rescue party to save Jemima Boone, Elizabeth and Frances Callaway who were captured by the Indians. Bush's Station was located across the Kentucky River in Clark County, Kentucky. Bush replaced the log house with the first brick house in the area. Ambrose, John, and William Bush were early Kentucky settlers.
