This was reply to my message dated 7/21/03 11:56:52 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: "Is this the WILLIAM BUCK (at age 50) who left England in April 1635 and arrived in Boston, Mass., with his son ROGER (age 18) on the ship "Increase," Capt. Robert Lee, master? I believe this William could be the father of EMANUEL (ENOCH) b. 1623" and the possible son of a JAMES BUCK, b. 1555, somewhere in England; and not the WILLIAM BUCK who died in Sudbury, Buckshire, England; another part of the ongoing mystery. CONFLICTING DATA in WFT, ICI, etc.: There seems to be reported 2 WILLIAM BUCKs who came to NE abt 1635, or thereabouts, on the H.M.S. Increase, landing in Boston. Both seem to have come with a son ROGER BUCK. One William seems to have been born in Wethersfield, Suffolk, Eng., d. in Cambridge, MS, He is bur. at Old Cemetery in Cambridge, document in probate records. Some report that a (or another?) William died in Sudbury, Buckshire, England. I haven't seen any documented proof of this person. If your WILLIAM and ROGER, who went to MA, then VA, were a very different branch of BUCK, the key would be birthplace and date; and father/mother's data. Your information may answer questions of why so many submissions to LDS, etc., have mixed information. I've had problems with other surnames; 2 Jared Terrills, 2 Ruben Caldwells, living in same area, in same time frame, but totally unrelated parentage and birth place. It took time to get to the bottom of it all. I look forward to hearing from you again.
