I don't know if this will help or hurt some of the discussions about the "Jonathan" name who married Zuriah, but I have him as "Jonathon Taylor Buck, Sr.". And his son, Jonathan Taylor Buck, Jr. married Glaphy Denton. Thought I would toss that out for everyone to ponder. -----Original Message----- From: buck-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:buck-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of mscheffl@twcny.rr.com Sent: Sunday, November 12, 2006 9:55 AM To: BUCK-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [BUCK] Morgan Buck This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VYG.2ACIB/1604.1.1.1.3.1.2.1.1 Message Board Post: Diane, my last attempted response disappeared from the screen, so my apologies if it shows up incomplete. You and others are reporting useful information on the John or Jonathan Buck families using C or Cornelius as the middle name. Perhaps, even more Buck researchers will be reading these messages or find them later that have additional information on possible ancestral links for Morgan and Martin. I have been in contact with some long time researchers of the Jonathan Buck & Zuriah Covalt line and no one reports ever having seen reference to the name Cornelius in this line. If proven descendants of this line have, perhaps they will be willing to weigh in. The fact that the name Cornelius is so long in showing up does not necessarily rule out that the Jonathan who married Elizabeth Barnett was a Jonathan Cornelius Buck. But, as of today, it seems no one has proof to rule either in or out the connection of your Jonathan Cornelius Buck to the Jonathan Buck & Zuriah Covalt through his son Jonathan. I personally find interesting that this new thread of messages introduces a new name Cornelius not earlier referenced. To explain my interest and connection, my own line is from the Bucks of Wethersfield, CT and I have been trying to extend the lines of the several early Buck families who early were in New England. There were so many similar names used in some of these families that it is sometimes quite difficult to prove which families go together. Cornelius is a German sounding name and there were Buck families of German origin in PA so I suppose it is possible there could have been more than one Jonathan Buck line that went from PA to NC and TN and AR as your families did. I am puzzled by the fact also that some people talk interchanbably of John Cornelius Buck and Jonathan Cornelius Buck. While John and Jonathan are similar, these names were both used in the same families quite frequently in New England. Hopefully more descendants of this line will turn up that can rule in or out some of the present theories. Has any one checked land records or wills that might shed some light on the ancestry of those who went first to NC? I could have missed references, but I don't believe anyone has mentioned legal documents that have surfaced. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BUCK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
Others have also added the middle name of Taylor to Jonathan BUCK. Do you have any theory as to its origin? Dianne who posted to the message boards gave a pretty detailed outline of the children of John Cornelius BUCK. It seems as if this is a completely different family from the Jonathan Buck, son of Jonathan Sr. & Zuriah who married Elizabeth Barnett.
