Good Afternoon, There has never been any concrete proof that Isaac Buck was the father of Jonathan Buck, except where it is mentioned in the book by Katherine Raines Buck. As best I remember (as I don't have a copy of this book, but have seen it and copied portions from the Library), it does not cite her source for this information. The only record I've ever found regarding Isaac Buck and Hannah Hicks being married was in 1775, not 1755, in Philadelphia, PA. So I believe that it possibly a transcription error. Listed below is the marriage record of Isaac Buck and Hannah Hicks. Names of Persons for whom Marriage Licenses Were Issued in the Province of Pennsylvania Previous to 1790. Comp. John B. Linn and William H. Egle. (Originally published as Volume II, Second Series, Pennsylvania Archives) Harrisburg, Penn.,1890. Pennsylvania Marriages Prior to 1790 Pennsylvania Marriages 1775, May 7. Buck, Isaac, and Hannah Hicks. Mrs. Buck was in the process of revising her book, but she passed away a few years ago, right after Christmas. I am descended through Jonathan and Zuriah Buck's youngest son, Isaac Buck, born 1800. The notation below is the first I've seen where Jonathan has a middle name of "Taylor". Jonathan is buried in Putnam County, TN.

Hi Cynthia, I am also a decendant of Jonathan thru Thomas. I visited the grave site of Jonathan and have pictures somewhere. It is a very pretty place. Good luck on finding Jonathan's father.
