Cliff Bushong was born the youngest son of Virginia Adventurer, true cowboy, and early Texas settler L.D. Bushong and his wife Martha Jane CRAWFORD Bushong. He grew up with his siblings along the banks of the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, TX.

Family history published in: Wagons, Ho!
A History of Real County, Texas p. 398.

"...Cliff and Jewett married Mar. 13, 1917 in Leakey and moved to the ranch they purchased on Cypress Creek, 7 miles northeast of Leakey. In the early years on the ranch they grew most of their own food. Garden produce and meat were canned or dried for storage. Milk from the milk cow was put in a glass jar and lowered into the spring to keep it cool. Until the 1950's, Cliff still plowed the fields with horse-drawn equipment. Angora goats were the main income-producing livestock on the ranch.

Cliff and Jewett had two children. Luther Clifford Bushong married Lois Hanson. Martha Lucille Bushong married 'Red' Luxton and had a son Jesse. After Red was killed in WWII, Lucille married 'Doc' Barnes and had two daughters, Patricia and Sarah."
