    I do not know that this IS our James Henderson Buck, but as I can not find him in other census, and as the age is a close match, this is a probable listing for him. May 2004.

    Subject: our Buck maternal great-grandparents

    Here is a photo of James Henderson Buck, Mary-Jane Harford-Buck, and one of their sons, Herman Buck.
    James and Mary-Jane were mother's maternal grandparents.
    The photo was taken in Modesto, Illinois, but I don't know the year and can only guess at it.

    J. Henderson Buck and Mary-Jane Harford-Buck are maternal great-grandparents for us.

    John, I don't know your degree of relationship yet. I thought you might like to see this photo, also.

    George.
