Biography

Research Notes

This is probably based on information related to Edward Buckner, q.v., of Surry Co. Virginia (m. Isabella Burrow, d. 1767), but the facts stated are so weirdly distorted that it's unclear whether a merge is advisable or who this person is supposed to be for sure. The sources cited are themselves unsourced and largely worthless.

Just to explain some background, there was a person named Buckner Caudill who lived in North Carolina around 1800, and Caudill researchers tend to assume that he was named Buckner because his mother or grandmother was a Buckner. This profile is probably one of various attempts to figure out where the Buckners came into the line, but it seems to be based on some rather extreme assumptions. Because of this, I'm not sure whether to treat it as the real Edward Buckner or to treat it as the hypothetical Buckner who may have been Elizabeth Caudill's father (who certainly could not have been Edward Buckner d. 1767, since she is unmentioned in Edward's will, not to mention the chronological problems with the idea.)
