Bishop Paul Bushe 1490- 1558 Bristol Cathedral
Bishop Bushe was the first Bishop of Bristol Cathedral appointed by Henry 8th in 1542. He lasted 12 years before getting married in 1553 and then being thrown out for being a married priest in 1554. Nonetheless he has a decent tomb inside Bristol Cathedral. My interest in all this is that I am descended from him. He wrote some poetry and other small itesm that include, according to Wikipaidia ” ‘Certayne Gostly Medycynes necessary to be used among well disposed people, to eschew and avoid the comen plage of pestilence’ (Redman, no date). This is a small trac containing prayers and conjurations against the plague.”

I note your comment about being a descendant of Bishop Paul Bush, (or Bushe), the first Bishop of Bristol. This is interesting as I am a direct descendant of the Bishop Paul Bush. If you read this I’d like to e-mail you and exchange information with you, please, should this be possible. Andrew D’A. E. Bush.
Hello. Indeed one of my uncle’s researched the family lineage back to 1100. And we are directly descended from Bishop Bushe. Feel free to email me of course.
