Hello list. I am researching the family of John Hickman BUCK, born in TN ca 1825. I am trying to decipher his Civil War serrvice. According to several trees I have found, he died on March 9 1862. According to one tree, this was at the Battle of Mill Springs in KY. However, I have researched a very detailed casualty list from that battle and cannot seem to find him. Some say he died in KY, some say Overton TN. I hae even seen trees that claim he died in the Civil War IN 1860, BEFORE the war even started! I have found 2 pension index cards for John BUCk that I believe belong to him. One has the actual names of the widow and minor child, and listed is Ruhamey BUCK (his wife was Ruhama) and child Julian "et al" I don't have a Julian, but I do have a daughter, JULIA ANN. This index card lists his service as:G 12 KY INF andD 2 TEN INF In researching the order of battle, I don't even see these 2 units at Mill Springs, unless he served in the 12th KY UNION SIDE. I did some more digging at Fold3 and have not been able to find a John BUCK who died in 1862. I DID find a John BUCK who died at Chicamauga in 1863, however. Both pension index cards have the widow's claim as July 5 1864. Is anyone researching these BUCKS or have more insight into Civil War research issues? Thanks for reading!
