There are four Buckley marriages between 1793 and 1805 listed in Virginia Marriages
1740-1800. You will find this in Ancestry. Tom > Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2008 14:53:02

almost a year. Possibly some new member of the list may be able to help me or someone
might have some new information.> > My great grandfather was Alpha Buckley
(1813-1875). He was born in Virginia and married Elizabeth (1817-1893) in 1843 probably
somewhere in Ohio. They had eight children. Martha (1835-?) and Joseph (1837-1911) were
born in Ohio. Milton (1842-?), Benjamin (1847-?), Laura (1853-?), Oscar (1858-1917), my
grandfather Edgar Allen (1860-1947) , and Andrew Jackson (1870-?) were born in
Indiana.> > Alpha was a member of the first city council of Peru, IN (2nd ward) and
was elected again in 1874. > > Alpha is my brick wall. Obviously his family
immigrated sometime before his Virginia birth in 1813. I know that he died in 1875 based
on a footnote in the list of Peru councilmen, but I can find no other information on his
death. I also can't find a marriage record. I requested a death certificate for
Elizabeth, but what I received has only her name and date of death--no other information.
She was born in Kentucky, and died in Logansport, IN.> > I'm planning a trip to
Ireland in the fall and I would live to find out where the family originated. I don't
want to end up like the father and son in the credit card commercial. The budget
doesn't allow for a side trip to Sweden. :-)> > Any information would be greatly
appreciated.> > Mike Buckley> > -------------------------------> To
