1451. John Buckalew. Born on 12 July 1814 in SC. John died in Blount Co., AL, on 25 September 1891; he was 77. Buried in Pleasant Grv Cem, Blount Co., AL.

Alternate spelling for John: BuckElew (1790), BuckalOw (1810) & BuckalOO (1800) in Edgefield County, SC. A James is listed with John in 1790 and 1810 in same location. A George is listed with the above in 1790. A George and James are listed in the 1810 census in Lancaster District, SC. cf Rebecca Buckalew, Cambed, SC.
1850 Gwinette Co., GA, Census.
1860 Blount Co., AL, Census.
1870 Blount Co., AL, Census.
1880 Blount Co., AL, Census, p. 360.
1994, 5 Aug: Visited his grave in Pleasant Grove Cemetery, Blount Co., AL, 2.5 miles north of Snead, AL, west of Hwy 75 on County Rd. 21. Inscription: "A Sinner Saved By Grace."
Its possible that Mahulda was not John's first wife.

On 28 June 1840 when John was 25, he married Mahulda Horton, in Hall (Gwinnett ?) Co., GA. Born on 3 October 1822 in GA. Mahulda died in Blount Co., AL, on 20 April 1894; she was 71. Buried in Pleasant Grv Cem, Blount Co., AL.

Alternate spelling, "BuckELOW".
Marriage in Hall County, GA.
Family in the Gwinnett County 1950 Census.
Muhulda apparently not John's first wife, nor the mother of the first four children of the family.
1870 Census, Blount Co., AL, shows John Buckalew (50) as Family # 891 with H.L. Horton (25) as #891a. This could indicate a non-family member adult living with the Buckalews, in this case Mahulda's brother or son by previous wife.

He was captured at Chattanooga, moved to a prisoner camp at Nashville, TN, then to Rock Island, Ill. He was released there at the end of the war. Must have been a tuff old bird.
