"Genealogical Society of NJ Cemetery Inscriptions -- ...two Frederick Buckelews buried in the Buckelew Burying Ground (located in what is now North Brunswick). Frederick died Feb. 15, 1825, aged 60 years, 5 months, and Frederick, Jr., died Aug. 16, 1815, aged 8 years. Then I found a gem! Frederick Buckelew, M.D., died Oct. 15, 1863, Aged ____ years, 2 months, and 20 days. (The years was blank because the stone had been mended there). This inscription was in Willow Grove Cemetery, New Brunswick, copied in 1937. The identification of Frederick as a physician is a real boon as otherwise it would be difficult to be sure the grave was the right one. No middle initial was given." 16 July 1986 Ltr to Edna B.

"Benedict, William H., NEW BRUNSWICK IN HISTORY, 1925; p. 228: In a description of damages caused by a tornado in June 1835 on Neilson Street a 'three-story brick house of Dr. Frederick Buckelew; gable end blown down, store house destroyed'. Also, 'a frame building owned by Dr. Buckelew, occupied by Mr. Graham and Mr. Dunn, partially unroofed.' I wonder if the Mr. Dunn was any relation to Margaret Dunn Buckelew, wife of Frederick (b. 1756)? " In 9 Jan 1987 ltr from Janet T. Riemer to Edna B. Taylor.29 <../rr_src.htm>
