Hello Everyone: I would like to recommend a powerful search engine that you may have overlooked. The people at SNAP has a great one and is excellent for genealogical searches. Their URL is; http://home.snap.com/main/channel/item/0,4,-8889,00.html?st.sn.fdts.0.cp-8889 which takes you directly to their genealogy page and the search engine. Great tip here is to enter the name you are searching as "William Buckner" rather than just William Buckner and it will zero in on the genealogical aspect. Another search tip that will be helpful with any engine is to also search through your ancestor's wife as you will find much information on your primary line through the wife. This works well when you start running into brick walls with your male lines. In fact I can state that in most cases while working lines I have found that most of the information located has come from sources or researchers NOT working the line in question!! Otherwise from the wife's lineage or the female lines. Don't neglect this angle.
