Buck of Ellsworth Takes His Life, Ill Health the Cause C. C. Buck, one of the most prominent farmers and retired business men in this locality, committed suicide at his home two and one-half miles west of the village, in Ellsworth township, by shooting himself through the heart, Monday evening at 6:35. Mr. Buck had been in town Monday afternoon on business and returned home in time for the evening meal. He went up stairs, presumable to change clothes, and a few minutes later the family were startled by hearing three shots in rapid succession. Rushing up stairs they found the unfortunate man, clad only in his under clothing, lying upon the floor unconscious with two bullet wounds in his breast. Drs. Coy and Coy were hurriedly summoned, but Mr. Buck was dead before their arrival. The first shot fired had gone wild and lodged in a dresser in the corner of the room and a small clock upon it was stopped at 6:35. Of the two remaining bullets one entered directly over the heart while the other penetrated about three inches below. Both bullets, following a slightly downward course, passed clear through the body, coming out about an inch apart beneath the left shoulder blade. The unfortunate man had been in ill health for several years and it is thought that this fact lead to his tragic end. The rumors that he was distressed financially are entirely without foundation. His house, one of the most palatial in the township, had just been completed and the entire surroundings denoted unusual prosperity. For a number of years the deceased conducted a general store in Austintown, later moving to Youngstown he entered into partnership with Edward Foulk, and under the firm name of Buck & Foulk opened a large department store on East Federal street. However, after a few years the partnership was dissolved, Mr. Buck retiring. He then moved to the site of his late residence, where he devoted his attention to agriculture. In 1896 Mr. Buck was a candidate for the nomination for county treasurer on the republican ticket but defeated by the late James Hiney. Mr. Buck was forty-four years of age. He was born in Austintown Township in 1861 and was the youngest son of the late Michael Buck of that place. In 1893 he married Miss Louie [sic Aulurah/Lulu] Harding the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Harding of Ellsworth, late of this place. He leaves the bereaved widow, a daughter, Bernice age 9 and two brothers, Jefferson of Austintown and John of North Jackson. Funeral services were held at the residence Wednesday at 2 pm and were conducted by Rev. J. P. Hutchison pastor of the Ellsworth Presbyterian church, J. R. Tabor, C. H. Hine, I. A. Manchester, Dr. H. T. Hawkins of Canfield, Alva Ohl of Warren and C. F. Kistler of Youngstown acted as pall-bearers. Interment was made in Ellsworth cemetery.

In the 1820 Census it has him as age 38 which was 10 years off along with his wife. In 1930 Census he is with his Daughter Gertrude Morgan and her husbnad Charles Morgan.

There are some letters on line from Jonathan "John" Buck to some family members at Rootsweb.com posted by Kaye Hooey at kaeh@comcast.net Aug 2004. ) Letters dated March 6, 1875 from John Buck, Bedford Co., PA to Elizabeth Buck and Sarah Garlick Kerswell. David Buck Jr. was son of David Buck Sr. bn abt 1745, Providence Twp., Bedford, PA died 26 Feb 1816, Providence Twp., Bedford, PA and his wife Catherine Cashman bn abt 1767. I noticed that several people have this David as son of Thomas Buck and Sarah Judd but do not think so. None of that made any sense. That would need a lot of work to prove. On Kaye Hooey information she only had two of the 7 children of John Buck. The Census should help prove that since they where born from 1855 to 1872. Also you need to search Providence, Bedford, PA for Land records since his father Jonathan "John" Buck owned property which he was having a hard time selling. So there has to be records there. You need when he bought it and when he sold it. Look for any church records in the area. I hope this helps.

Surnames: Buck Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VYG.2ACIB/1549 Message Board Post: Looking for information about John (M or N, depending on obituary or death certificate, I have both) Buck. Born 1872 in Pennsylvania, died 8/11/1938 in Dayton, Ohio. Buried in Columbus, Ohio. Was married to Laura Belle Keller(?) from Circleville Ohio. Children were Sherman, Baldwin, Belford, Eva, Marie, Rosanna, Kathleen, Isabelle and Gertrude. Have some information on Sherman, Baldwin and Belford. Sherman was my father in laws father. Found John in 1920 Census in Gallipolis, Ohio, but nothing beyond that. Thanks for any help!

This is Sebastian Boston "Boss" Buck, he is of the German Buck family originally starting out in Bucks County, PA. Since I lived near Clarion County and all my hubby's folks are from the Clarion County area I am well aware of ole Boss. Hubby has been down in the cave where he kept all his stolen horses until he painted them and sold them. I am also in contact with a few of his descendents, both living out in the Western states now. One of them thought he was from the English Buck family until I was able to get information on one of his ancestors for him, to prove that he was indeed of the German Buck family. He ran a horse thief ring from Maine to TN, lived out his last days in Venango County, PA. There is a book about him for sale at the Clarion County Historical Society Web Site. There is also each year in Knox, PA (Clarion Cty) a "Horse Thief Days" celebration. Knox is a very small town and thats about the only thing that ever happened there that was exciting. One of his descendents living now in WA state tells me they go back for the Horse Thief days and are treated like royalty. There was also a "Horse Thief" vigilante group formed to catch him, and then it became a club, Dwight D. Eisenhower was a member of it.
