(4936) Thomas' residence at Raynham is borne out by the following:

"MATERIAL FROM THE RAYNHAM (NORFOLK, ENGLAND) RECORDS.

"Communicated by Charles Hervey Townshend, Esq., of "Raynham," New Haven, Conn.

"I have been surprised to find so many names of New England settlers during my investigation at Raynham, Norfolk, England, among the tentry of the Townshend estates at East, West and South Raynham, East and West Rudham, Helhoughton, Coxford, Toftrees and Fakenham, all parishes of the Marquis Townshend. For instance, Rev. Samuel Whiting, Christopher Phillips, father of Rev. George Phillips, Rev. John Davenport, Thomas Buttolph, Samuel Hutchinson, John Mason, John Cooper, Edward Armitage, William King, also Rev. John Goodwin, rector of Raynham, who succeeded the Rev. Nicholas Price, as chief minister of St. Nicholas Chapel, King's Lynn, 31 July, 1629, and whose assistant was the Rev. Samuel Whiting, who had the three preceeding years served as domestic chaplain to the Townshend and Bacon families at Raynham and Stifkey where there are at this day to be seen papers giving evidence of his residence there."

4940. poss. unknown Buck

4941. unknown

Attempts have been made to connect this family with Buck families of Massachusetts, but there is no solid evidence for this. They have William Buck (1585-1657/58) of Padbury, Bucks, as Henry's father. Emanuel/ Enoch and Henry are almost certainly brothers, since they appeared in Wethersfield at about the same time. Some have identified Emanuel/ Enoch with "Christian Buck, who immigrated on the "Blessing" in 1635; but the passenger list of that ship shines no light on his origins. James Buck of Plymouth Co., MA came from Hingham, Norfolk, England (/MA?); and there is a significant correlation between first names in the families of James and his kin, on the one hand, and those of Henry and Enoch/ Emanuel on the other; but as I said, nothing has been verified along these lines. A good famiy DNA project, on the lines of "YSearch" at FamilyTree DNA, could probably clarify the issue, but I have yet to see such a study.

"Emanuel Buck was an early settler in Wethersfield, Conn., and as he testified in Court in 1684 that he was sixty-one years old, he, therefore, was born in1623. It is thought that he may have come to New England from Rowington, Warwickshire, England, the former home of John Kirby of Middletown, whose daughter he married; for in a memorandum in connection with the attempt of Joseph Kirby to recover an estate in Rowington, the latter is directed to ascertain what his `cousin' Buck remembers of the people of Rowington."[Kirby Genealogy, pp. 4, 5.] Emanuel Buck was the brother-in-law of Joseph Kirby, but the reference is doubtless to one of the Buck family in Wethersfield."

Some genealogies list a Mary Arnold as the wife of Emanuel/ Enoch Buck. This may be due to an entry in Savage:

"JOHN, Cambridge, freem. 6 May 1635, went as an orig. propr. to Hartford, there d. 1664, very aged, leav. Josiah, Joseph, and Daniel, ment. in his will of 20 Aug. pro. Dec. foll. in that yr. as also gr.ch. Mary Buck, but wh. was her f. or mo. is not discern. His w. was Susanna. "

Janet Petrak cited (27 July 2002) an article, passed on to her from Rick Stirling, who cited "Origin, History and Genealogy of the Buck Family", film #0379619:

Emmanuel and his brother Henry Buck, in the summer of 1647, arrived in America from England. Then aged respectively twenty-three and twenty-one years. They were natives of Norfolk County, England...
