  • Notes 
    • Brothers Charles, Joseph, Francis and Clement Buckman were members of St. Mary's County, Maryland Militia in 1794.
      Francis served with the Kentucky Militia. Dec 1803 he was fined five shillings on a charge of delinquency.

      April 27, 1796 left for Kentucky. Moved with family to Washington County, Kentucky with Buckman Clan and William Hayden around 1796, going overland by way of Pittsburg. At Pittsburg, they continued by flatboat down the Ohio River to Limestone (now Maysville), Kentucky where the journey again continued by land. Lived in Rolling Fork.

      In the 1797 tax list of Washington County, Kentucky, Francis Buckman is residing on the Rolling Fork and possesses two slaves and two horses. Francis served with the Kentucky militia.

      Without moving, the Buckman families lived in Nelson County, Virginia, Washington County, Kentucky and Marion County, Kentucky.

      When they arrived in this area, they settled in what was then called Nelson County, Virginia. When Kentucky became the fifteenth state of the United States, the area that was Nelson County, Virginia was divided into Nelson County and Washington County. Washington County was further divided in 1834 to create Marion County.

      In the 1812 tax list Francis Buckman owned 333 acres on the Rolling Fork, four slaves and six horses.

      In 1806 Francis, his wife Elizabeth, and their two oldest daughters Ann and Susanna, were members of Rev. Charles Nerinckx' Church of the Holy Rosary at Holy Mary, Calvary, Kentucky.

      Francis Buckman died in 1814. He and his wife were probably buried at Holy Mary Cemetery, Calvary, Marion County, Kentucky. (Marion County was formed out of Washington County in 1834).
