The seventh Bush Family Reunion returned again to Greendale Church, Dalton NSW on Saturday 3rd October 2015.
Descendants, family and friends came from near and far to share stories, recount old times or just enjoy the atmosphere of the historical Greendale Church and surrounds.
The highlight of the day was the launching of the book, Pioneer Bush Brothers A Bush Family Genealogy 1765 – 2015, written by Sally-Ann Twardochleb. The book at 900 pages is the first update to the Bush Family tree since 1995. It records 10 generations of descendants from Arthur and Jeremiah.
The book is currently sold out as hard copy, however an e-book version is available on Amazon.
