Since my previous post I have been able to confirm this segment of the Buckhalt family:
Jim Buckhalt b abt1816 Ga, married Julia Johnson b abt
1823, NC, married Houston Cnty, Ga. 1843, lived in Ga., Ala., Ga. again, & then Fla. Jim died during the Civil War period, cause, date & place unknown, his last census 1860, Dale Cnty. Ala. The 1870 Quitman Cnty census shows Julia & children only. Date & place of Julia's death is still unknown.
Their children, all born in Ga, were:
Mary M. abt. 1843 (maybe married a Bellflower)
James Johnson 9Mar1948, married Sarah Jane Hubbard
this branch settled in Alabama & is confirmed by separate
research.
Sarah J. abt 1851, originally married a Renfrew, was single in 1870 & widowed by 1880.
Caroline abt 1853
William H. abt 1856 (possibly found on a 1900 Thomas Cnty,
Ga. census, married to Addie Hurst,)
Emily F. abt 1859
Martha A. abt 1859
John abt. 1861
Frank R. 5May1864, married Fannie Williamson, lived in
Thomas Cnty, Ga, Madison Cnty., Fl & died in
Okahumpka, Fl 1931.

If you are connected with this family, I would love to confirm what happened to the remainder of the family & swap research.
Thanks.
