I have a will and homestead patent that was in Smith Center Ks. Smith County court house. It was Hiram Clinton Buck's will. It states that he left his farm to James Oliver Buck, a piece of land in Portis KS to Morgan F. Buck and the rest of his belongings and proceeds from them to his two daughters Rachel Ann Jones and Alice M. Jones provided that his wife Adelia Abigal was not living. She was however alive when he passed away 1 Dec 1897. I know that my great grand father (James Oliver Buck) left KS with his mother (Abigal) and moved to Kiowa county, Eads CO. James Oliver, Adelia and his sons homesteaded there. I have a lot of information on that line, however I know nothing about Morgan F. Buck. I am not sure if he was ever in KS or not. I have email from a cousin that he lived in Pennsylvania with his mother Harriet Ann (Atkins) Buck and later in CA. Supposably he made a fortune in oil. Supposably he had a sister! named Sylvia. Any possible leads on Morgan or Sylvia would be greatly appreciated

Daniel Azro Ashley BUCK 19 Apr 1789 in VT? to 22 Dec 1841. He died in Washington, D.C. I have no wife listed for him but I have seen it listed as Philomelia DODGE. He apparently had at least a son Daniel who did not marry, an unmarried daughter, and another son and another daughter. The names you list sound like they may be his descendants. I believe his parents are Hon. Daniel Buck and Content ASHLEY. Grandparents are Thomas Buck, Jr. and Jane PEASE. The generations preceding are problematic and have not been proved. I have proposed Thomas Jr.'s father is Thomas BUCK, son of Emmanuel /Enoch BUCK & Mary KIRBY, but I don't know his wife's name. Several Thomas BUCKs of that generation are confused. Someone needs to get the deeds from Middletown, CT and see if they can sort out the various Thomas Bucks since I believe at least two contemporaries lived there. Perhaps the multiple Thomas Buck families will never be sorted out, but I do have hopes. My discussion on some of these related families is at: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=mscheffler&I11.x=26&I11.y=12 Do you know the father of Daniel BUCK the inventor?

I've partially answered my own question. This Robert Buck wasn't "just" a pilot, he was quite famous for his flying career, which began at age 16 by setting the junior transcontinental air speed record, and he was the youngest pilot ever licensed in the US. The middle initial was, indeed, an N, for Nietzel. Still looking for the Orion middle name, perhaps it has a flying connotation. Doubtful the link will work, but if you Google Robert Nietzel Buck, I'm sure you'll come up with the widipedia article. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Nietzel_Buck ----- Original Message ----- From: Gary Richardson<mailto:gar3131@msn.com> To: BUCK-L@rootsweb.com<mailto:BUCK-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2006 12:13 PM Subject: [BUCK-L] Robert Buck, NJ and VT Turns out I do have some Buck family relatives, after all.

Jean was born in 1912, in New Jersey, not sure if the move to Vermont was due to Robert's family, or just preference. At the time of her death in 04, Robert was apparently still alive. I'd also be interested in finding out more about the origin of the Orion middle name. I have some Mason ancestors who used Orion as a first name, mostly in Massachusetts.

MArgaret, Thanks again for those census listings......... My beloved Aunt had died in Dec 2000 and left me all kinds of material on our long-ago Buck forebears...... She was a Clayton who never married......... Your listing included the fact that her grandmother Rosa Buck.......had married a Mr. Robert Clayton, owner of a barber "tonsorial" parlor in Roanoke, Va........ He died in Aug 1901... Would you believe that I found a small piece of the cardboard obit/program of his funeral.. All it said was that he was 34 and had died in 01....... His wife, Rosa, lived to be a ripe old age of 90...........and died as late as July 31, 1958........ Her oldest daughter Lugie Buck died at the age of 98.........as late as Mar 1988........and is buried in the "Old City" cemetery in Lynchburg, Va..........supposedly, the last person buried there before it closed to become a National landmark in 1989.......or 1990. So i guess that's history for you right?? Anyway, thanks again...... and keep in touch. Tim P.S. I think I once heard that we were distantly related to Frank Buck, author of "Bring 'em back alive." I'll have to check on that....... Also.........I have some very old saved letters of C.C. Buck writing his sisters back in Maine. C'elia, Octavia, and Capitolia......... they're very old, going back to the 1880's

It is interesting that Jim Herring mentioned Argyle in one of his posts, since I did find a some info regarding a Solomon Buck in that area (Argyle) who married one Hellenor/Eleanor/Elinor Mount, d.o. James Mount of Argyle, NY.....James had three daughters: Eleanor, Elizabeth, and Mary. Two sisters sold their 1/3 farm lot inherited from their father James to Solomon Buck and then he and Eleanor sold the whole deal to Isaac Hanks in 1801. Apparently, this Solomon was in Cambridge, NY in the late 1700's and sold some land to Isaac Clapp. There is no evidence of Solomon or Eleanor as being in Washington County after the farm lot was sold to Hanks in 1801. I followed some other Buck families in that area around a bit...some move to Michigan and then Ohio. There is some interesting history in regard to Washington County (where Argyle and Cambridge are), especially Fort Edwards which was began by a man who had married a full blooded Native American woman. Fort Edwards was at the beginning of a place the Iroquois referred to as the "big carry", a portage place from Lake George to Lake Champlain. A lot of fur trading was done here and subsequently intermarrying between whites and Native peoples occurred. This really interested me, since I strongly suspect Native ancestry in my Buck line, but have not been able to follow this particular Solomon's (the one from Argyle, nor my gr-gr-gr grandfather's) trail. There certainly are a lot of Buck families in and around Lewis County, NY in the early 1800's. There is even a Solomon Buck who appears as a Captain in the 1805 militia for Lewis County. There is also a Solomon Buck listed in the Harrisburg(h) 1807 census. I found references also to the following Bucks in the History of Lewis County book by Hough: Chester in Lowville, Azro H., Daniel T., Amos, Elijah and Simpson (implicated in a murder of one Henry Waggoner). However, whether or not these Buck families are related to my Solomon, or to Jim Buck's line, or to Cynthia Buck Nielsen's line for that matter is still an absolute mystery as far as I'm concerned. I tried contacting the Lewis County Historical Society, but they aren't real happy doing genealogical research and sent me information I could already access through Heritage Quest. I got the name of the Historian for Harrisburg...Charlotte Wheeler...gave her a ring, but have not heard back. I have tried the St. Lawerence Cou! nty Historical Society and also the historian for Hammond, NY to get anything I could on Solomon to no avail. I believe my problems tracing this line stem from the fact that this line is Native or partly Native.

Be very careful of the 1850 Buckfield, ME census. This family is confusing from the 1850 census. Mahala and Octavia are not his but are by his wife Mahala and her first husband Henry Buck. Cynthia and Diantha are his children by his first wife Betsy Cushman and Celia is the daughter of Samuel and Mahala. His wife Mahala is NOT PRESENT in the 1850 census. It is her daughter Mahala that is there. Margaret Scheffler

Hello Margaret, Yes I remember the valued assistance you gave me a few years ago when I was researching my Buck forebears......... You even found a census entry from 1850 Va re: the woman he married.......A Mariah Harrison Buck.......who was my gr gr grandmother.......supposedly she was 1 of the "outside" children of 1 of the sons of William Henry Harrison who owned the plantation where she worked.......I think it was called Berkeley..... I do know that it was very large.......and had hundreds of slaves...... Misegenation was rife on these plantations from what I was told....... If you could somehow find that citation census entry from 1850 Margaret, I'd really appreciate it........ You sent it to me once........but I think I lost it when my pc crashed last Dec... As for C.C. Buck.......I think his Maine forebears go all the way back to an English ship that landed in America in the 1600's....... I think it was called HMS Increase..... the first Buck being either a Abidijah (something like that) or Jonathan Buck........ OK...........thanks again, Tim

You know, Tim, when I saw that CSA military record, I really thought he may have been forced to join. I thought that, having come from Maine, he just "didn't have a dog in that fight," as we say in Texas. Or at least he didn't have a CSA dog in that fight. But he did manage to get a discharge early----again, he was resourceful! Donna
