Methodist

From Township Histories from Pioneers of Marion Co., Iowa, 1872: "Dallas post office was established in 1855, and was first kept by John Parrett, in a little log house still standing, but unoccupied. Present P.M., P. Buckalew... Mr. Parker Buckalew, the P.M. and lone merchant of Dallas, relates to us a hunting expedition of his, with which we will close this history. In December, 1853, being then on a visit to the country, he was ambitious of the distinction that might be accorded to any young man for killing a deer before returning to the east. Accordingly, he one day occompanied by Simon Thomas, an experienced hunter, on a hunting expedition. Having separated from his companion, and seeted himself on a rise of ground in the timber for the purpose of ambushing the game that was expected to come that way on its accustomed round, he had the good luck to spy two large deers passing about 25 yards distant. Taking aim as well as he could through the timber, he fired, and had the glorious satisfaction of seeing one of them, a large, withered buck, drop. He ran to it with the utmost speed, and found the animal only wounded by a graze of the bullet across the back, and already getting upon its fore feet. Here, in the midst of his excitement, Parker threw his gun away, and bravely laid hold of the creatures horns. With this the latter made a violent surge, threw his assailant headlong down the hill and fell upon him. Still Parker held fast, and a rough and tumble struggle ensued, during which the buck hooked his sharp, hind hoofs in P.'s pants and, with one violent jerk, sundered the lower half of the youthful Nimrod, leaving only the waist band of his pants and a few shreds belonging to the legs thereof. The possibility of having his hide served in the same way now presented itself to the excited imagination of the desperate hunter with such force that he instinctively placed a big tree between himself and the flying heels of the buck, still maintaining his hold upon the horns. In this condition the deer's head was drawn around the tree, and Parker had an opportunity to get his knife and cut its throat, thus ending an adventure that, for having the quality of being at once exciting, critical and comical, is surpassed by few of its like on record."

1870 Marion Co., Iowa, Census: Farmer.

1905, Marion Co., IA, Obit.: "Park Bucklew Dead -- Passed Away at Dallas Yesterday After a Long Illness -- Park Bucklew died yesterday at his home in Dallas, after a protracted illness. Desulted from old age and a complication of disorders. He was an old citizen, and leaves a considerable family, Mrs. A.O. Anderson, of this city, being a daughter.

"Arrangements for the funeral had not been completed yesterday afternoon.

"Park Bucklew, an honored pioneer citizen of Dallas township, died at his home in the village of Dallas, on Tuesday, February 28, 1905, aged 72 years and 3 days. Death resulted from rheumatism of the heart and chest, and other complications incident to old age.

"He was born in Coshocton Co., OH, Feb. 25, 1833, and was a worthy representative of one of the honored pioneer families of that section.

"Shortly after reaching manhood's estate, in the year 1854, he was united in marriage with Miss Mahala E. Salyards. Mr. and Mrs. Bucklew removed to this county in the year 1858 and located in Dallas township when many of the prairie sections were still in their virgin state and when but few of the forest tracts along the streams had never resounded to the woodsman's ax, and lived there long enough to witness their transformation into fertile fields and farms, dotted with many prosperous and happy homes.

"In the year 1871, they left Iowa with ther family of young children and settled in Logan Co., KS, where the wife and mother passed from earth in the year 1884.

"To the subject of this sketch and his worthy wife seven children were born, six of whom are still living; one died in infancy. The names of the surviving members of the family and their present place of residence are as follows: Lizzie A. and W. L. Bucklew, near Knoxville, IA; Isaac J. Bucklew, Hays, KS; Mary I, now Mrs. A.O. Anderson, of this city, and Sherman P. and Eugene L. Bucklew, on a farm near Knoxville, IA.

"In the year 1886, in Logan Co., KS, occurred Mr. Bucklew's second marriage, the bride of his latter years being Mrs. Eliza Hansacker. She and their son Arby(?) still survive and are residents of Dallas. The near relatives, other than those previously mentioned are 12 grandchildren.

"Mr. Bucklew was born on a farm and devoted the energies of his early life to the agricultural pursuits. For ten years prior to his removal to KS, in 1871, he was engaged in the merchantile business in Dallas. In KS his principal business was that of stock dealer. After a residence of almost exactly 30 years in KS he returned to Dallas in the spring of 1901 and has been in the hotel business a portion of the time since that date.

"His old friends and neighbors are our authority for the statement that he was a Christian gentleman, pious in manner, chase (sic) [chaste?] in conversation and upright in his daily life and dealings with men. He was converted and joined the Methodist church nearly fifty years ago and during all the half century that has elapsed since that time was all that man could expect of man.

"The funeral services were conducted at the M. E. curch in Dallas at 1:30 p.m., on Thursday, March 2, under the auspicies of the Masonic Order, of which he was a valued member. The funeral sermon was by Rev. Holliday. Interment in the Dallas Cemetery."

On 30 November 1854 when Parker was 21, he first married Mahala Ellen Salyards, daughter of William Salyards (1805-1852) & Julia Ann Moffatt (18 July 1808-5 June 1875), in Coshocton Co., OH. Born on 4 May 1837 in OH. Mahala Ellen died in Phillips, Logan Co., KS, on 15 April 1884; she was 46. Buried in Old Logan Cem., Logan Co., KS.

Information obtained from: Chuck Swanson
About 1856, Isaac and Elizabeth (Bucklew) Wilson moved to Owen County, Indiana, where a second son, Howard, was born but died in infancy. They then moved to Iowa arriving there in early 1858 and settled on a farm in the Salem School District northeast of Dallas. Nine of their twelve children were born here. In 1873 they moved to Knoxville for better schooling advantages. In 1875, their last child was born and Isaac died only a year later leaving Elizabeth a widow with 9 children to take care of. In 1877, the family decided to move back to the farm. Elizabeth remained a widow there for 50 years. "Aunt Bettie" as she was known became the town "doctor" because she knew a lot about wild herbs that grew in the woods and prairies and their medicinal properties. The first real doctor arrived in 1895. She moved in with Sherman, her son, when she was quite old and died there in 1927 at the age of 92.
