Annie Bush Ace



Annie Bush Ace. We stopped at the Analomink U.M. Church.  They have just finished rebuilding the front of the church. I don’t know how I missed the news, someone actually ran their car into it, and it looks like they kept going into the fence on the other side. (shaking my head) So, Annie has a lovely spot in the cemetery. I wanted to remember and honor her this week. My research has turned up very little about her, or her family. She was born 17 September 1850,She could be the daughter of Jacob & Anna Labar Bush from Middle Smithfield Twp., Joseph & Catherine Bush from Paradise Twp. Or I Like Annie Bush from Pocono Twp. She married William T Ace 1843-1927,I found a record in Scranton, Lackawanna Co., Pa 19 Nov 1870. The marriage record say she was from Hyde Park Ny but it also says he was to. He could have moved their after the war (civil), but he and his family where definitely from Bartonsville, Pa. She died after Christmas on the 30th in 1872, she was 22 years old. William remarried a few years later to a Susan Lake 1847-1905, they had a few kids and lived in Scranton, Lackawanna Co., Pa where he was a conductor for the rail road. He and Susan are both buried in Washburn Street Cemetery in Scranton.
