Son of Stephen Bules and his wife Mary Matsaco. Tracing Stephen's genealogy has been difficult, primarily due to uncertainty about his surname. Following is a chronology of surnames found in various records:

1883 - Bules
1886 - Bules, Bullezs
1892 - Bulesh
1894 - Bulish
1899 - Boorish
1900 - Boyrish
1902 - Borish, Bules

All his children used the surname BOISH and the family cemetery plot has a marker BOISH and all buried there have headstones BOISH. The earliest records, a ship manifest and his marriage records use BULES. Additionally he was originally buried in 1902 as BULES and reinterned in 1920 as BULES, and this is considered to be, at this time, the most likely correct spelling and usage. His 1886 marriage license names his parents.

Children of Stephen and Elizabeth Boish:

Mary Boish Hoodrick (1887-1943)
Michael E. Boisch (1888-1978)
Anne E. Boish Golden (abt 1890-1974)
