My sources are the writings of R.W. Buss, which I possess (both handwritten and printed sources); a book by his brother Dr. Henry Buss, "Eighty Years Experience of Life", voluminous notes, diaries and journals by his family, numerous press cuttings and a number of secondary sources which discuss, in particular, the now infamous Pickwick affair.

To get this in perspective, Robert William Buss is my great, great Grandfather.

He is the three greats Grandfather of Alison and Jonathan and the four greats Grandfather of Gemma and Stephen, who are now 8 and 5 years old. Kids - be impressed! The youngest Busses are Jessica and Suzanne (below).

Of course, R.W. Buss is not the oldest Buss ancestor of whom we have information for Dr. Henry Buss opens his own book with all that he knew about R.W.'s father, William Church Buss, and his grandfather, Robert Buss. But Robert will probably be the limit of our knowledge until such time as we manage to forge other links to other Busses who have cross-over or supplementary information.
