From ten states, nearly 100 relatives of L.W.,Sr. And Mary Jane Davidson Buckland shared a beautiful spring day in celebration of their pioneer heritage and told stories from their childhood. The ancestoral couple resided in Falls Mills from the early 1920's until 1967 when Mr. Buckland passed away. His only living child, Robert Cecil Buckland (92), owns and lives in the old foursquare brick homeplace on Mudfork Road. Larkin Watson's father, Jacob Alexander Buckland, husband of Sarah Jane Tabor, owned land and operated a grist mill on the Bluestone River and was a horse breeder throughout the county.<br /><br />The group's ancestry is English from the Buckland line, Scotch-Irish from the Davidson, Daugherty and Ward lines and German through the Harman line. Pioneers from these families immigrated and settled these lands through violent Indian attacks. These descendants are directly related to John Goolman Davidson, original settler of Bluefield who fought Indians alongside the Bailey's at a fort near the current day Westgate Shopping Center and Bluefield College at the state line. Ties also connect Davidson's son Joseph, whose log home is on view near Mitchell Stadium. Pioneer David Ward of Tazewell's Ward's Cove and Col. Henry Harman, key officers in the establishment of Tazewell County are also connected. If first cousins, five or six times removed count, this long standing family is related to both General Samuel Houston and Virginia's Civil War Governor, John Letcher. There is talk of this being the "first annual" Buckland-Davidson Family Reunion, but there is no future date set as of yet. </div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4246461290804607615.post-22836155734959616202010-04-11T07:09:00.007-04:002010-04-11T07:19:01.134-04:00BUCKLAND Family Reunion MAY 8, 2010<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4F6kAhGOOIEaFZbhwLfV_HHbn0UO1SOMC5oTthMmw2YMi9WwY5mOPGZRJxGnXARA7rbNoA-ZfYJYL4pmZqFOLXZ1ixeeCfXBv7cv3SMGnzRasfpM9yM9oSahQLT3ZWcbaaXFT3_7r2w9m/s1600/BUCKLAND+Larkin+Watson+St+1885-1967.jpg"></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFJiDKkCsO3EtaNC876-hOzYBWrXemB4IgPthIC6GUf3PBiTcyZ1V-lIQx3Tt1pXyCEvYV6n-SBAIGDQtXrXMVXnnPbgDlFCUm5DJAbJRSVSazLoYl1kIuoiANeE-h4q_EFarvJAcqkHPt/s1600/BUCKLAND++Mary+Jane+Davidson+12-25-1908.jpg"></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRRJ80nKXxdJBXiJG4IYnF8LJ-3dG4hV8gdoLgaoYGleBqIxxnEgmEn2Y7xeg83StWS0MXbWh6LeOJiVDJR4jCPu6VbiW-j_4OgKE99Qf6o54RHDeJ9zdKRhLcZzzhRo9Nem8T-CzAMvRR/s1600/BUCKLAND+Mary_Jane_%26_LW_Buckland_SR.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 170px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5458836334571282162" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRRJ80nKXxdJBXiJG4IYnF8LJ-3dG4hV8gdoLgaoYGleBqIxxnEgmEn2Y7xeg83StWS0MXbWh6LeOJiVDJR4jCPu6VbiW-j_4OgKE99Qf6o54RHDeJ9zdKRhLcZzzhRo9Nem8T-CzAMvRR/s200/BUCKLAND+Mary_Jane_%26_LW_Buckland_SR.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div></div><div></div><br /><div>PRINT a flyer and send or email to other relatives that I may have missed. </div><br /><div align="left"><br />This partial list of Surnames contains our relatives and some close family friends – including, but not limited to: Allen, Baker, Bailey, Buckland, Compton, Davis, Daugherty, Davidson, Gregory, Harman, Houston, Lawrence, Letcher, McCroskey, McHaffa, Peery, Pratt, Shufflebarger, Tabor, Ward, Wickline, Wimmer… If you’re an outlaw, come along too.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><strong>Saturday, May 8th, 2010<br />11:00 AM</strong><br /></span>Graham City Park on 460<br />Near St. Clair’s Crossing, West of Bluefield, VA<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Suggestions:<br />• There is no charge for anything.<br />• Just bring two or three covered dishes and your own drinks<br />(no alcohol allowed at park)<br />• Bring a lawn chair if you like – Dress comfortably<br />• Bring something for show and tell!<br />• Bring your camera<br />• Bring a copy of a picture of your parents, even if you are an outlaw<br />• Let's all get together for some tall tales and old, old, pictures<br />• Clara will bring paper supplies & napkins<br />• I’ll bring a genealogy chart beginning with L.W. & Mary Jane Buckland<br />• I’ll bring a laptop with family pictures – if you want copies, bring an 8GB or larger zip (flash) drive and I will copy them for you.

Barely two months later, Daniel was dead. cause of death Scrofula {tuberculosis of the lymphatic glands, at only 39 years old. <span style="font-size:78%;">Browne Hollowell</span><br />---------------------------------------------------------<br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Wikipedia says,</span> "Scrofula is the term used for tuberculosis of the neck, or, more precisely, a cervical tuberculous lymphadenopathy. Scrofula is usually a result of an infection in the lymph nodes, known as lymphadenitis and is most often observed in immunocompromised patients (about 50% of cervical tuberculous lymphadenopathy). About 95% of the scrofula cases in adults are caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but only 8% of cases in children. The rest are caused by atypical mycobacterium (Mycobacterium scrofulaceum) or nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM). With the stark decrease of tuberculosis in the second half of the 20th century, scrofula became a very rare disease. With the appearance of AIDS, however, it has shown a resurgence, and presently affects about 5% of severely immunocompromised patients. Signs and symptoms...The most usual signs and symptoms are the appearance of a chronic, painless mass in the neck, which is persistent and usually grows with time. The mass is referred to as a "cold abscess", because there is no accompanying local color or warmth and the overlying skin acquires a violaceous (bluish-purple) color. NTM infections do not show other notable constitutional symptoms, but scrofula caused by tuberculosis is usually accompanied by other symptoms of the disease, such as fever, chills, malaise and weight loss in about 43% of the patients. As the lesion progresses, skin becomes adhered to the mass and may rupture, forming a sinus and an open wound."<br />-----------------------------------------------<br />Note the 1850 Census for Tazewell Co., VA, Western District, p. 179, 24 Sept. </p><p><br />27 Chas.

I would say this is how Daniel and Mary Jane Daugherty met. <span style="font-size:78%;">(speculation Browne Hollowell) </span>And I would bet that living in Chas. H. Greever's house as probably a servant or helper to <em>Eliza Greever</em>, that Mary Jane named her next daughter after a woman who had been kind and a friend to her. Were they related? I don't know. </p><p>Charles and Eliza are buried at the Greever Cemetery at Five Oaks in east Tazewell. Eliza J., wife of Chas H. Greever, died Nov. 9, 1881, age 62 y & 7 D. I think that would make her born Nov. 2, 1819. So actually she was 31 (Lacking one month) in 1850. So a 31 year old married woman with three children, could have welcomed young 20yr old <strong>Mary Daugherty</strong>, and been a friend and mentor. As you know, it was very common in 18th and 19th centuries, for a young girl to leave her family and go live with another family, not necessarily as a servant but more as a mother's helper. Perhaps it was a way of dealing with adolescent attitudes which can be a little difficult between mother and daughter sometimes, but would have been tempered by being in another woman's house.<br /><br />On 22 May 1852, twins were born. This was not unusual in the Gregory family to have twins.<br />These twins were named John K. L. and Elizabeth H. John K. L. died the next day, 23 May 1852, but he was named for Daniel's father, John Keatts Gregory. I do not know what the L stands for. Elizabeth H. is most probably named after Daniel's mother, Elizabeth Holland Corder Gregory. This was a strong custom to name the first after the father's family. </p><p><br />Next, in March, 1854, Nancy Ward Gregory is born. She is named after Mary Jane's mother, Nancy Ward Daugherty. Again, a strong custom to name after the mother's family at the next birth. Then <em>Eliza Greever Gregory</em> is born June 1856. </p><p>----------------------------<br /><span style="font-size:180%;">109 Years Ago Today<br /></span>July 22, 1900<br /><br /><strong>Erastus Wiley Davidson </strong>(John Adams, Erastus Granger, Robert W., Joseph, John Goolman) was born to John Adams Davidson and Lillie Emma Bette Riggle.

They became popular in Europe during the 17th century, and soon traveled across the Atlantic to the social elite in the Americas.<br /><br />Calling cards became an essential accessory for the rounds of reciprocal visits that played a significant role in genteel social life. They were used in accordance with an elaborate set of rules, according to which a would-be visitor would first leave her card with a new acquaintance at the acquaintance's home. The visitor would not expect to be admitted into the house, but would hope to receive a card from the acquaintance in response, as a sign that a face-to-face meeting would be welcomed. If the visitor did not receive a card in response, or if she received a card sent in an envelope (as opposed to one delivered personally by the acquaintance or her servant), she would know that she had received a social snub, and be discouraged from pursuing a face-to-face meeting.<br /><br />During the 19th century the middle classes, in imitation of more privileged society, adopted the practice of using calling cards. The purpose of the cards changed, however, when fewer servants were available to deliver them, and they evolved as a precursor to the modern-day business card. Calling cards during this period were generally smaller than today's business cards, and usually consisted simply of a name engraved on glossy cardstock.<br /><br />Emily Post, writing early in the 20th century, suggests that in certain social groups, calling cards could replace informal party invitations, contain messages of condolence or celebration, be used as endorsements, or be sent by mail. Even for Post, however, there are times when custom dictates that a calling card must be left. First, a guest must always leave a card after dining at someone's house for the first time, or if they were invited to a dinner but were unable to attend. Another occasion that requires a calling card, according to Post, is the return of a first visit. Post also considers a calling card essential when sending an invitation for the first time, and says that a card should always accompany the inquiries and expressions of sympathy that occur in the case of bereavement or illness in a family.<br /><br />The following summary reflection from Emily Post conveys the social utility of calling cards, which lasted well into the 20th century: "Who was it that said—in the Victorian era probably, and a man of course—'The only mechanical tool ever needed by a woman is a hair-pin?' He might have added that with a hair-pin and a visiting card, she is ready to meet most emergencies" (Post). http://gslis.simmons.edu/henty/callingcards.htm<br /><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivLa32A-kg5v2-_u7hKS0USHqGPNqlZvPikkjvAb1zvteMrIyuzKhAm3AfmLU8jmunm5us91m65FWeGjvjv6b1ZY1a_NNBULoD-ML5Kww-iicByBlVlJguqwp7t6Y4unRSQu9U7wg_H-Is/s1600-h/Calling+Card+William+Harrison.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 199px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5360859653404885522" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivLa32A-kg5v2-_u7hKS0USHqGPNqlZvPikkjvAb1zvteMrIyuzKhAm3AfmLU8jmunm5us91m65FWeGjvjv6b1ZY1a_NNBULoD-ML5Kww-iicByBlVlJguqwp7t6Y4unRSQu9U7wg_H-Is/s320/Calling+Card+William+Harrison.jpg" /></a> A William Harrison was married to my 3rd cousin, 4x removed, Anna Eliza Harman.
