  Notes	(1) Historical and Biographical Annals of Columbia and Montour Counties, Pennsylvania, Chicago, IL: J. H. Beers & Co., 1915, p. 403: Samuel Buckalow, son of Francis, was born in 1696 near South Amboy, and as he lived to the age of ninety-six years, dying in New Jersey in 1792, the tradition about his father's age may be fact. His will, which came into the possession of his great-grandson, John M. Buckalew, dated April 12, 1781, devises to his "trusty and well beloved son John" a certain tract at the place mentioned (all his lands), and states that it was bequeathed to Samuel by his brother Francis. Samuel married Mary Campbell. The elder of their two sons, Andrew, received by the will mentioned "the just and lawful sum of ten shillings," and John was appointed sole executor. No reason is given for the strange disposition of the property, and it is not known whether Andrew had been previously provided for or not. (2) Book of Biographies: This Volume Contains Biographical Sketches of Leading Citizens of the Seventeenth Congressional District, Pennsylvania, Buffalo, NY: Biographical Publishing Co., 1899, p. 49: Samuel Buckalew . . . was born in South Amboy, N. J., in 1698, where he lived all his life, dying August 4, 1796, at the ripe old age of ninety-six years. [Note by compiler: One or more of the foregoing numbers are incorrect.] He was the progenitor of a family of five children, three daughters and two sons, one of whom was John, the grandfather of our subject.
