Collection: Ohio Marriages, 1800-1958. August 7 1850 living with father and mother in Riley, Putnam County, Ohio. Mary Hazel Clover Bushong Day
2 Feb. 1833 – 25 Sept 1918
by Damon Smith Hostetler 3rd great-grandson

Mary Hazel Clover was born in Franklin County Ohio, the daughter of Jacob Clover, 29 November 1791 to 9 June 1840, and Experience “Azy” Hazel. She moved with her family to Putnam County in 1834. The Histories of Riley township, Putnam County, lists some of the early settlers as George Bushong, Thomas Lake, James Bunn, J.D. Wamsley and Jacob Clover.
1850 Putnam County, OH Riley Twp, Axy Clover 56; Sally Clover 20; Mary Clover 18; William Clover 15; Edward Clover 13; and Martha Clover 12.
The same census lists George Bushong 63; Lydia Bushong 59; George Bushong 23; as well as 4 younger siblings.
The younger George’s linage is; son of George (war of 1812) and Lydia Rush Bushong, son of John Bushong (Revolutionary War under Gen George Rogers Clark) and Jennett Summers Bushong; son of Andreas Boschung (signer of the Cumberland Compact 1780) and Catherine Buschung/Bushong.
On 19 October 1850, Mary Clover and George Bushong Jr. were married by Samuel Cooper J.P, in Putnam County as attested to by Probate Judge John Kuhns on 15 August 1865 for paperwork Mary needed to apply for a widow’s pension. Over the next several years George and Mary bought and sold land around Columbus Grove, Ohio, where they lived and worked.
On 23 September 1862 Mary gave birth to Edward DeWalt Bushong. Just two years later George Jr. enlisted in Company K, 14th Ohio Volunteers. He was listed as 5’ 9” tall, blue eyes, Dark hair, and fair complexion. Company K was sent to Ringgold, Ga. to prepare for the spring offensive along with 60,000 other men. Here he got sick. After the Army could not heal him they sent him home where he died in Columbus Grove days after arriving home. He is buried on the eleventh row of the old Pandora City Cemetery. His grave is marked with a Military stone.
Mary went on to sell their land and applied for a widow’s pension and put in for Edward’s government support. Four and a half years later, 24 November 1868, Mary married Dr. Hiram Day, 29 January 1816 to 23 April 1890. When they were married Dr. Day still had three children living at home, Hiram, aged 19; Edward M. aged 11; and William, aged 8. These boys were his sons with his first wife, Harriet Pierce, 28 January 1844 to ca. 1866.
Dr. Day took over the guardianship of Edward Bushong, but did not change his name and applied for Edward’s Civil War for pension. Mary gave Dr. Day a daughter, Electa Day, in 1871. Edward was nine years old when his half sister was born. Electa’s life was short and tragic. She married Thomas Grafton in 1890 and they both died in 1897. They are both buried in the old Pandora Cemetery.
Mary Clover Bushong Day would go on to survive her second husband and her daughter. When she died, 24 Sept 1918, she was drawing a Civil War widow’s pension of $75.
The first marriage of Edward DeWalt Bushong ended when Catherine died in 1886 and both of their children died. His second marriage was to Mary Elizabeth Ransom, 14 July 1862 to 30 June 1919. Their marriage produced Mabel Grace Bushong, 7 January 1892 to 6 January 1949, and Norman D. Bushong, 23 January 1895 to 18 April 1980. Both children married and had children. Mabel is the author’s grandmother.
Mabel Grace Bushong married Harry S. Hoschtetler (Hostetler), 15 March 1890 to 10 April 1983. Their middle child was Robert Edward Hostetler, 1 March 1920 to 30 March 1988 who married Bette Jane Smith, born 1920, and their middle child is Damon Smith Hostetler, born 1949.

Mary Hazel3 Clover (Jacob2, Henry1) was born 2 February 1833, died 25 September 1918, buried Pandora Cemetery. Her tombstone reads: Wife of George and Hiram.(1) Her death record states that Mary Day died 24 September 1918, aged 85 years 7 months 23 days. The informant, E. D. Bushong of Pandora, Ohio, stated that she was a widow, born Ohio and the daughter of [blank] Clover, who was “forein” born. The mother’s name was not included.(2) Mary married (first) 19 October 1850, Putnam County, Ohio, by Samuel Hooper, J. P., George Bushong.(3) George was born 1828, Ohio. He died 27 July 1864, at Columbus Grove, Putnam County, Ohio, of chronic diarrhea while still in the military. He was mustered in as a private in K Company 14th Ohio Volunteer Infantry on 25 February 1864. He was given a 30 day furlough because of his sickness, during which he died. After his death, his widow applied for a pension. She listed Edward D. Bushong, born 23 September 1862, as the son of George and herself.(4)
Newspaper notice dated 1 June 1865: Administrators Sale of Real Estate. At John B. Fruchey Hotel in Columbus Grove, 1 July 1865. Northwest quarter, northeast quarter, Section 23, township 1 south range 7 east, 40 acres. Mary Bushong, administrator for George Bushong, deceased. David I. Brown, attorney for petitioner. 25 May 1865.(5)
Mary married (second) 26 November 1868, Putnam County, Ohio, Hiram Day.(6) Hiram was born 29 January 1816, died 23 April 1890, buried in Pandora Cemetery, Riley Township, Putnam County, Ohio. His tombstone reads: Dr. Hiram Day, Husband of Harriet Pierce and Mary Clover.(7) Hiram Day married (first) 28 January 1844, Putnam County, Ohio, Harriet Pierce.(8) Harriet was born 4 January 1822, Kent County, England, daughter of Wm. and Ruth (Stevenson) Pierce. Hiram was born in Wayne County, Ohio, the son of Elam and Almira (Mansfield) Day. He had 3 brothers in the Civil War. Children by his first wife: Almira Ruth, born 8 February 1845; Mary C., born 22 December 1846; Lacy Ann, born 17 August 1849; Hiram Marshall, 11 March 1854; Edward Mansfield, born 19 February 1857; William Oliver, 22 July 1860. Dr. Day had a long and successful practice as a physician and a surgeon at Pendleton. He married second to Mrs. Mary Bushong, daughter of Jacob Clover and Axy Hazel, who came here in 1834. By the second marriage, he had a daughter, Electa May, born 22 September 1871.(9)
The IGI lists a child born ca. 1852 to George Bushong, Jr. and Mary Clover, but no name is given. If this child existed, it probably died before 1860, because there are no children with her in the 1860 census. In the 1900 census, Mary is listed as having born one child, with one child living. However, in the 1910 census, she was listed as having born 3 children with 1 child living. The living child was Edward Bushong and one of the deceased children must have been Electa Day Grafton.

Mary Hazel Clover Bushong Day
2 Feb. 1833 – 25 Sept 1918
by Damon Smith Hostetler 3rd great-grandson

Mary Hazel Clover was born in Franklin County Ohio, the daughter of Jacob Clover, 29 November 1791 to 9 June 1840, and Experience “Azy” Hazel. She moved with her family to Putnam County in 1834. The Histories of Riley township, Putnam County, lists some of the early settlers as George Bushong, Thomas Lake, James Bunn, J.D. Wamsley and Jacob Clover.

1850 Putnam County, OH Riley Twp, Axy Clover 56; Sally Clover 20; Mary Clover 18; William Clover 15; Edward Clover 13; and Martha Clover 12.

The same census lists George Bushong 63; Lydia Bushong 59; George Bushong 23; as well as 4 younger siblings.

The younger George’s linage is; son of George (war of 1812) and Lydia Rush Bushong, son of John Bushong (Revolutionary War under Gen George Rogers Clark) and Jennett Summers Bushong; son of Andreas Boschung (signer of the Cumberland Compact 1780) and Catherine Buschung/Bushong.
On 19 October 1850, Mary Clover and George Bushong Jr. were married by Samuel Cooper J.P, in Putnam County as attested to by Probate Judge John Kuhns on 15 August 1865 for paperwork Mary needed to apply for a widow’s pension.

Mabel Grace Bushong married Harry S. Hoschtetler (Hostetler), 15 March 1890 to 10 April 1983. Their middle child was Robert Edward Hostetler, 1 March 1920 to 30 March 1988 who married Bette Jane Smith, born 1920, and their middle child is Damon Smith Hostetler, born 1949.

Damon has pointed out to me that there are some problems with the cemetery book that I used for the descendants of Jacob Clover in Riley Township, Putnam County. Apparently, the person who wrote the book added information from other sources. I did not realize that when I did the book. Therefore I am putting some corrections here:

Electa May Day, born 2 September 1871, died 25 July 1897, married Thomas D. Grafton, born 4 April 1853, died 12 August 1897, buried Pandora.
TS actually reads: Thomas Grafton 1853-1897 Electa his wife 1871-1897

You list Edward's first wife and again quote Herbert Probst. His quote is wrong The one I know is there not only list her as wife of E. D. Bushong DD, Yrs and days but also her two young children. I have the picture.


Herbert Probst, Riley Township Cemeteries, Putnam County, Ohio, (Bluffton, Ohio: Privately Printed, 1997), 31.
Thomas D. Grafton, 4 April 1853 to 12 August 1897, buried Pandora Cemetery, tombstone reads, husband of Electa. Electa May Grafton, 22 September 1871, to 5 July 1897, wife of Thomas, buried Pandora Cemetery.
I used this cemetery book in publishing Clovers of Franklin County, Ohio. Since Jacob was the son of Henry Clover, I wanted as much on this family as possible. However, Damon has alerted me to a problem with this cemetery book. There is much information in the book which is not on the tombstones, but was added by the author in a misguided attempt to aid the reader. Damon tells me that some of what I quoted from the book is not actually on the tombstone itself. Apparently, in some cases, only the year is on the tombstone and the full dates were added by the author. Also, there are some relationship comments that were not on the stones. I am grateful to Damon for clarifying the situation.
This was a common problem a few years ago with cemetery books, but this one was just published in 1997, and I did not realize what was going on. I apologize to my readers.

Rachel Bushong was born in 1839 in Ohio.¹ She died about 1840, at age ~1, in.

Rachel is not found with father, George and mother Lydia in the 1840 or 1850 census in Riley, Putnam County, Ohio. She would have been about 11 years old. Nor is she found anywhere else. There is a Rachel born about 1838 (as calculated) in the 1860 census and later, but this is the wife of Jefferson Bushong, Rachel Johnson.

From this, it is assumed that our Rachel died before 1840

In 1840, there is no female child her age. Record was viewed read Rachel Bushong

Collection: United States Census, 1850. Obituary of George W. Bushong, son of John and Rachel Van Voorhis Bushong,
taken from the April 29, 1909 issue of the Herington Times, a Kansas newspaper:

"George W. Bushong was born at Greenfield, Logan County, Ohio, June 15,
1834, and died at the home of his son, Wm. Bushong, in Council Grove, Kansas,
April 23, 1909, being 74 years, 10 months and 8 days old at the time of his
death. With the exception of seven years during his youth, which was spent in
Illinois, he grew to manhood in the state of his birth. He was married on March
9, 1856 to Elizabeth Phillips and soon after, moved with his bride to Iowa. He
remained there for some time and then moved to Kansas, thence to Nebraska,
and thence to Iowa again. Finally he moved again to Kansas in which state he
continued to reside until the time of his death. Twelve years of his life was
spent in Herington. About nine years ago he moved to Council Grove, where he
continued to reside for about two years, during which time his wife died.
Since that time he has made his home with his six children. He was the father of
six children, three sons and three daughters, -- one son and two daughters
of whom are still living. He was a true, loyal and brave soldier during the
dark days of the civil strife, enlisting on August 19, 1861 in Co. F., 10th.
Iowa Infantry and serving until the close of the war. He was mustered out and
honorably discharged on the 11th. day of October, 1864. He was one of God's
soldiers, also, was converted and united with the church when a young man and
never regretted the consecration of himself thus made. He is gone but not
forgotten, his suffering is over, the disappointments are past and his glory life
has begun.

Funeral services were held in the cemetery ground at Herington last Sabbath
afternoon, conducted by Rev. Reed, pastor of M. E. Church of Council Grove,

Bushong, Elizabeth Frances DIED: At her home, near Meredith, Kan., Elizabeth Frances, wife of Peter Bushong, January 8, ’84, in the 49th year of her age. By her departure, Peter loses a beloved companion; the children a fond mother; the church, a sister dearly beloved by all; the S. S. class, of which she was a teacher one year, a noble teacher. It appeared that her class could not get their lessons good enough nor do enough for her. It was composed of boys and girls 11 to 13 years in age and about 15 of them. She went to the S. S. as long as she was able, was not confined to her bed at all; sat up in her arm-chair most of the time; and went out riding nearly every few days. Dispatched for B. Elliott, Cawker city, Kan. And to her only sister in Nebraka, and Rilla Jount also of Nebraska; but all failed to come. Elder Stamp preached the funeral in the afternoon of the 11th to a large and sympathizing congregation; after which her remains were laid in the Union cemetery in Oakland township about a mile from her home.

OBITUARY

John D. Bushong, son of John and Rachel Bushong was born Feb., 10 1838 near East Liberty Logan Co. Ohio and departed this life at the home of his son Hugh near Barnes City, Iowa, Aug. 29 1912. He moved with his parents to Poweshiek county, Ia, in the fall of 1856. Was married to Mary E. Lawton at Oskaloosa in June 1864. To this union were born six sons and two daughters. The mother and three sons and two daughters preceeded him in death. Three sons and one daughter survive, A. B. Bushong of Oskaloosa, J. M. Bushong of Montezuma, Lina Rakeshaw (sic) of Horton, Mo. And Hugh L. of Barnes City. The children were all present except Lina who was unable to attend. He leaves also two brothers and one sister of Cloud Co. Kans. Eleven grandchildren and a host of friends.

While he never made a profession of Christianity, he lived a horrible (sic) life dealing honestly with everybody. He has lived most of his life in Jasper and Poweshiek counties. Four years were spent in Decatur county and one and a half years in Vernon Co. Mo. from which place he returned last spring. His health began to fail rapidly after his turn and he was taken from the home of his son Bert in Oskaloosa to the home of Hugh where he died. The children feel the loss keenly but hope it is his eternal gain. His two brothers from Kansas were present at the funeral which was held at Forest Home and was conducted by Wm. Robertson. The body was laid to rest in the Forest Home cemetery beside that of his wife and one son.

The 1900 Census for Jasper Co., Iowa, Lynn Grove Twp., Lynnville Town, Dist. 24, pg. 1A, shows John D. Bushong living in the home of son-in-law Frank Rakestraw. He was widowed and age 62, working as a liveryman. Also living in the household was John's son Hugh.


The 1910 Census for Jasper Co., Iowa, Lynn Grove Twp. En. Dist. 27, pg. 2B, shows John D. Bushong, widowed, age 73, living in the household of his son, Hugh L. Bushong.

Her sufferings for three years had been seemingly without a parallel, but all was borne with Christian fortitude.

She, with her father and mother and three sisters, came to Iowa in 1855. January 22, 1864, she was united in marriage with John D. Bushong. To them were born eight children, four of them with the bereaved father survive. She made a public profession of faith in Christ and was baptised when about eighteen years of age. Her upright walk and chaste conversation were expressive of the purity of her character. She was a faithful wife and loving mother, and leaves a large vacancy in the home circle. John D Bushong
