TUCKER
John H TUCKER was appointed postmaster in Nelsonville Ohio abt 1848. His estate appears in Hocking Co OH in 1849. Unfortunately in his estate file there are only receipts & newspaper ads & inventory of effects. From the contents of his estate is appears that he may have been a Doctor or apothocary. He does not appear in the 1840 census in Hocking or Athens Co. There is no mention of any living relatives nor of any transaction of land involving any relatives in the conclusion of the estate, and it is not very clear how the estate was taken care of.... There was a H John Tucker in the 1820 census of Athens Co. There is also a John H Tucker in Richland Co OH in 1830 and I believe in 1840. The possible children of John H Tucker marry mostly in Athens Co after 1830 and into the 1840's (so why would the children all be in Athens Co & the father be in Richland Co?). Most of them appear in the census in Ohio in 1850. There is a burial record for a John H Tucker in 4th St cem in Nelsonville? in 1849, but, the age give would be much too young for H John from Athens Co in 1820. Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated.
