of being a part of a proud organization, known for its
dedication to discovering and preserving American Colonial and American Revolutionary War history.
This web site and the Joseph Bucklin Society exchange
of information can exist only with your membership support. It takes
your membership dues to pay the bills for the website and the entry of data
in the database.
You receive a distinguished three
color certificate suitable for framing containing your personalized
information, a quiet mark of your interest in American History. View Certificate.
You are authorized to buy and wear the Society badge on clothing. View Patch.
You receive the organized research that
only this Society does!
You share in the benefits and excitement of working together!
Because we are not an endowed institution, finances do
not allow us to answer all the questions and requests we receive. (We
get inquiries not only from Bucklins, but also from persons, companies, and
government groups researching American Colonial and Gaspee Affair history.)
Our rule is that members' communications receive
priority each day. Unless you are a member we may not respond to
you. One of the advantages of membership is getting the benefit of our
organized research and preservation of historical and genealogical
information.
You can preserve your family's history for future
generations --- it's a great feeling! Without our database, family
information may be unknown.
You educate others about American
History --- it's a great
feeling! . This is one of the two main national history centers for
information about the 1772 Gaspee Affair, an important contribution of the Bucklin family to the American Revolution.
Without organizations like the Joseph Bucklin Society, much information about
this
important part of the American Revolution would be unknown.
We are a private history and family research and educational organization,
not connected with any religious or political group.
We are known by researchers in the fields of Bucklin and Rhode Island
research, and especially by the specialist historians working on Gaspee
history. We encourage you to visit other sites at the
Rhode Island Consortium of Genealogical
and Historical Societies (RICON), an informal union of Rhode Island
genealogical and historical societies.
We do research! We have documentary
depositories to preserve history. But most of all we coordinate the exchange
of Bucklin data and Colonial History information.
Our goal is to have any Bucklin of the future be able to find their
ancestors of the Revolution that built this country. Only by your
participation can this ambitious gathering of Bucklin and Colonial information
be of maximum benefit . Join us. Share in the benefits and excitement of
working together!
