Hi Carla, Do you have a Joseph E. Tuck who married Caroline E. Boggs? I have no dates for him but she was born December 21, 1846 and died October 06, 1908 and is buried at Bethany Methodist Church in Jackson County, Georgia. You can see all of my Boggs family information here: http://www.xlncfeatheredfriends.com/sandy/ then click on Our Family History and from there you will find everything. Thanks!
