Joshua Rush, 1832-? 

Joshua Rush is Margaret (Stout) and Henson’s 4th son. 

Here’s another mystery! Did Joshua die in Adair County, KY before his mom, brothers and sister moved to Missouri in the late 1850’s? Or did he stay in Kentucky or move somewhere beyond Missouri and his family lose touch with him? The 1850’s through to the 1870’s were turbulent times in US history. We just don’t know. We found him in the 1850 census with his mother and brother, but then after that he dropped off the map.
