Notes
Birth
Some records say that Malvina was born in Canada, some that she was born in Michigan or Wisconsin. The solution may be in the 1940 Census record for her daughter, Lillian Andrews. There, in the supplemental questions, it is reported that Lillian's mother was born at sea!Marriage
Witnesses were Andrew LeBlanc and Virginia Cusson.Census (family)
Enumerated with this family were:-- L. Joseph Bush, age 30, a barber, born March 1870 in Wisconsin
-- his wife, Alvina Bush, age 29, born Oct 1871 in Canada
and children:
-- Libbie, age 10, born November 1889
-- Henery, age 10, born March 1890
-- Beatrice, age 7, born November 1892
-- Lillian, age 7, born November 1892

(Note: I copied the information as I found it, but some of the information is obviously wrong. Joseph was born in Canada. Also, the birthdates of some of the children are too close together to be possible.)
Joseph and Alma had been married for 12 years. She had had nine children, all of whom were still living.
