In 1921 he married Fannie Givens in Falls Mills, VA.James' parents were William Jasper Buckland and Emma Tabor Buckland. William was a Confederate soldier (private). They were married in 1865. James was active in Republican politics and was killed when struck by a freight train in 1899. William was given the Parole of Honor, the Confederate equivalent of the Purple Heart for being wounded in combat. James was one of 6 kids as stated in the 1900 census. The other names that I know of are John (there may have been 2 sons named John as I have 2 very different birthdates?), Maud, and Charles.
