Hello Jessiikahh69 What type of information are you looking for? There are a number of Bux entries, but none with Buddha. Information that would help in the search would be: 1. Full name (as written on his birth certificate, driver’s licence, legal documents, etc). 2. Where he was born, e.g., Town, State, Country. 3. Parent’s names. ---

Buddah Dean BUX was buried in Mooroopna Cemetery on 8 Jun 2016 and his funeral service took place in Shepparton), so I think that we can assume that Buddah might have been from North Victoria/South NSW? Location and Time period make me suspect that he is mentioned an article regarding Cummerajunja Aboriginal School in the early sixties: [https://cdn.csu.edu.au/\_\_data/assets/pdf\_file/0013/920101/talkabout-nov-2006.pdf](https://cdn.csu.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0013/920101/talkabout-nov-2006.pdf) (page#11) ---

What a great Story. Have you done any research on Ancestry? There is a Buddha Bux in the 1980 electoral role in Shepparton. There are a number of people on ancestry who are researching the name Bux too. Gladys Naby Muriel Bux was born 1906 in Cummerajunja, married, and had a daughter Nora Nicholls in 1928 at the same place. Gladys’ father was Meera Naby Bux, mother was Alice Emma Campbell. Whilst there is not a direct link to your Buddha, they may be family, and it gives you a place to start. Hope this helps. Cheers
