Anyone out there have any information on the name Buckley or Proffitt in Madison County? Around 1844, John Buckley came from Kentucky to Madison County. His son, Zack, married Susan Proffitt. She is the daughter of Jeremiah Proffitt and Elmira Thurston. I know John owned land just northwest of Edwardsville. I have a copy of his will and a few other items about all of these people in Madison County. One of my problems is John's death. He died around 1868, but I have not been able to locate exact death information or a grave. Jeremiah died in 1881 - same deal, no death or grave info. I recently visited Madison County and went through many cemetery books, and other records at the Historical Society, but many dead-ends. Do any of these names ring a bell with anyone out there? Please let me know. Thanks.
