I know Gerry Green seemed to think that when Frederic Buckelew (1676-1754) wrote his will in 1753 that when he listed his son George in the Will that he was still alive and feels that this was a different George that died in 1739. I could interpret this to mean that he wanted the family of George to know that the land he had left to George still belonged to them and unlike the land of William, also deceased, would not be sold. Who really knows?
I have found a lot of Dutch names on various passenger lists, but nothing that sounds like Buckelew. Still looking!
In 1717 when George was 19, he married Sarah, in Cheesaquakes, Middlesex Co., NJ. Sarah died in 1748.
