Carol, The Samuel Tucker you speak of is a brother to John Sr who died in 1800. I am trying to learn about this family too. I descend from John Sr, through his son John Jr. John Sr. also named a son Samuel so looking at all these Sams and Johns it is hard to decide which is which. If I find anything to indicate relationship to Clinton, I will let you know.. I now live right on the SC/NC border and am digging through old records now. I got Land grants for John and Samuel and trying to decide which is which.. Samuel and John Jr. were chain bearers for John Sr. land grants. but not sure which Samuel. (son or brother)...
