I would like to make a correction to your history of this Elizabeth Buckland and her brothers Walter and John and her son Charles Herrin. They were not African-American. Her father is my 4x Great Grandfather and he is listed as an Indian. Back when the census was taken if you were of mixed Indian and White blood you were listed as Mulatto per the law. If you look at the other Buckland's in the census you will find they were listed as white and she was listed as white in earlier census reports. John Buckland her father is listed in the Indian census as a Saponi Nation Indian. I'm sorry for the mix up as I was confused when I found the census recently but after further research I found the law and her father. I know that my father was almost full blood Indian mixed with Roma (Gypsy). I thought I would straighten this out so others that are looking into their ancestry would understand. Thank you so much for your time and research. You did help me find my 4x Great Aunt. Blessings, Elizabeth Buckland
