General Notes: Husband - Joseph Buckley


He came to America from England when a youth of sixteen and lived to the age of ninety years. He was a “Forty-niner” in California, making the trip overland by oxteam, and returning by way of Panama. He spent four years mining in the West, and passed practically all the rest of his life on his farm at Sandy Lake, Mercer County, PA. For five years he drove an oxteam there.
He was a constant attendant at the M. E. Church at Sandy Lake, going to services regularly and promptly, though he had to drive two miles, and he gave freely of his time and means, filling all the church offices and meeting the local expenses generously out of his own pocket. He was a lifelong member of the Stoneboro Camp Meeting Association, and his home was always open to ministers. [CAB, 771]
