Buck, age 41, listed as watch maker. Daughter Nettie, 14 and son Arthur A., age 8, plus Mary S., age 73 listed as mother and a housekeeper, Isabel M. Carlson, age 28. This census has the kids and Daniel born in MA, with Mary S. from VT. 1860 Census for Clinton, MA has Daniel A. Buck, age 21, living with family named Green, who appear to be jewelers. Daniel is listed as a Clerk, and born in VT. Watch making and jewelry seem to go together. No other census records for Daniel A. Buck, but a Daniel Buck, born about 1820 in VT appears in a census for Washington, DC.
