Goals
This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about one surname and the variants of that name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join our study to help make it a valuable reference point for people studying lines that cross or intersect. Current varriants included Buckell
Task List
Currently adding profiles to the Study and setting up categories.

While I was researching the Wateridge branch of my family I discovered a connection to the Buckle family. Henrietta Wild (Wild-3348) married into the Wateridge family in 1773 and her mother was Henrietta Buckle (Buckle-1201) who was born about 1714. I know very little about Henrietta and was hoping you may be able to provide some background.
Cheers, Alan.
Please be informed I have added many of my wife Buckle family members to the "Buckle Name Study". This branch was started when Thomas Buckle was sent to the VOC refreshment station at the Cape of Good Hope as a Horticulturalist. He established farms in the Swartland district to the north of Cape Town; the area these days is known as Malmesbury. He is therefore the progenitor of the South African Buckles; I also took the liberty of creating a category titled "South African Buckles" to avoid muddling them with your English Buckles. best wishes Paul Snook
I lead this study and my family is also English. Having a category for each country is great but if you find someone who emigrated you need to add them to both so the link to their origins is established.
Anyway... my ancestors on that line start with Thomas BUCKLE (6th gt. grandfather) who was buried in All Saint's Churchyard in Great Oakley, Essex, in 1768, having married more than once, in the same parish. I'm not so worried about the DNA Matching of Descendants on that line, as we do have an unbroken line of parish records to support the family (NPEs notwithstanding).
