Name: Jonathan Buckalew 1
Sex: M
Birth: 10 NOV 1739 in Perth Amboy, Middlesex, New Jersey, USA 1
Death: 1776 in Mecklenburg, North Carolina, USA 1
Note: From the Les Buckelew website:
105. Jonathan Buckalew. Born on 10 November 1739 in Perth Amboy, Middlesex Co, NJ. Jonathan died in Mecklenburg Co., NC, in 1776; he was 36.
May have been son of Richard, Sr., rather than brother.
1766, in Mecklenburg Co., SC, married to Mary.
Leased and Morgaged 163 acres on McAlpine's Creek at the same time as did Richard--Jan 1767.
On the 1765 Loudoun County tithable list Garrett was still in Richard's home, but George was out on his own, as was a Jonathan Buckalew, according to the Cameron Parish list.
In August 1765, when Jonathan Buckalew appeared before the County Court to answer Mary Butcher's breach of peace complaint against him, he was ordered placed in the custody of the sheriff until he could give "security" for his good behavior for a year. Richard Buckalew stepped forward and posted a bond (on credit" of 20 pounds for Jonathan and 10 pounds for himself. It seems that there was a hostile family feud probably over some inherited property.
We assume that the Buckalew family moved later in 1765, because the same Buckalew names appear in Mecklenburg County, NC, on a militia roster dated June 7, 1766: Richard, Jonathan, George, James and Garrett. Since, at that time, each colony regulated its own militia and most required mandatory service of all males, free and physically fit, who were between the ages of 16 and 60, that means these five Buckalews lived in the county, were not indentured servants, were in reasonably good health, and had likely been born between 1706 and 1750.
1767, 14 Jan; Mecklenburg Co., NC Deed: George Augustus Selwyn to Jonathan Buckalew of Mecklenburg Co, a planter, for 17 pounds sterling--163 acres, together with all rights of hunting, etc, on the watters of McCappine Creek, adj James Clark. Sign: Geo Aug Selwyn by Henry E. McCulloh. Wit: John Frohock & Thomas Polk. Book 3, p. 273. From copy of orig., p. 238.
In Mecklenburg County, NC, Jonathan was a member of Captain Charles Polk's Company, mustered into service on March 12, 1776 to suppress the Cherokee Indian uprising stirred up by the British. It's possible the Jonathan was killed, because his widow, Mary, was granted Letters of Administration on the 3rd Tuesday in July. Application for these letters stated that Jonathan has served as constable and on the Petit Jury in the aforementioned county.
According to Elizabeth Axton: 1766, in militia of Mecklenburg Co., NC, Clear Creek, under command of Capt Adam Alexander, Lt. Chas. Polk, Ensign James Harris, Sgt. Thos. MacFadden, Sgt. Wm. Blair, Sgt. Jon Ford, Corp. Jon Culberson. Served with Richard, George, Thomas and Garret Bucklue. 17__, served under Capt. Charles Polk, and penetrated Cherokee Country over mountains to what is now Monroe and Blount Co., Tennessee
1767, 15 Jan; Mecklenburg Co., NC Deed of Mortgage: Jonathan Buckelew to Henry E. McCulloh--163 on waters of McKooppins Cree, adj Clark's corner, "together with the plantation and improvements there unto belonging &c." Wit: John Frohock and Thomas Polk. Ack before Richard Henderson. Book 5, p. 91. From copy of orig., 238.

1775, 3rd Tues of Jan; Mecklenburg Co., NC Court Minutes: "Ordered by the Court that Jonathan Buckellew serve as constable in the room of Richard Stillwill, being sworn according to Law--" Book 1, p. 19. From 2nd copy., p. 239.
1775, July Term; Mecklenburg Co., NC Court Minutes: Following a Grand Jury list of 15 names was "Jonathan Buckellew, Constable." Book 1, p. 52., p. 239.
1776, 12 Mar; Mecklenburg Co., NC: Jonathan Buckaloe was a member of Capt Charles Polk's Company in the Cherokee Indian Campaign. From "The Mecklenburg Signers and Their Neighbors," p. 507 by Worth S. Ray. p. 239.

From CO Buckellew., p. 239.
Citing "Sketches of Western North Carolina," p. 239, Joe Dobbins provided information stating tha Jonathan was killed by Indians.
1776, July; Mecklenburg Co., NC Inventory, Estate of Jonathan Buccalo: George Bucklew and Mary Buccaloo made a list of Jonathan's personal estate, but did not assign a value to the items. The handwriting is not easy to read, but very few household goods were listed, and very little to help determine the size of his family.
