Sorry Susan,
I've been stuck at several dead ends myself but keep trying to find the missing links. I am 37436 at FTDNA and do not match any Tucker line allowing access to their data.
Seems you have been researching for a while so I don't know if you have seen this or wrote it for that matter. But I'll pass it on just in case. From Tucker Cousins Discussion Group:
Family history written down is by a family friend, not a family member. 1930's ?
>
> Ephraim Hubbard Tucker born 22 Sept. 1811
> Paper stated that he came from New York when he was a child, along
> with a brother Royal, and settled in Huron County, Milan, Ohio.
> I have since discovered that several Tucker families moved to Ohio at
> the turn of the century, (The Connecticut Reserve Grants) It seems
> that several of these folks stopped it New York, on there way out.
> Ephraim married Cyrena Sherwin on 1 Jan. 1834 (double ceremony)
> Chloe Tucker married Rev. John Collins Sherwin. (Brother, Sisters)
> Eph and Cyrena had 5 children in Ohio
> 1. Welsey Sherwin Tucker
> 2. John Everton (Lee) Tucker
> 3. Luther Collins Tucker
> 4. Ephraim Bird Tucker
> 5. Geralding Tucker
> Ephraim Sr. died on 10 Sept. 1844. Three days later Luther died.
> Cyrena was pregnant with Geralding. Geralding died at six months old.
> I have never found where they were buried. I know that there was a
> lot of typhus around that time, and they were burying people in mass
> graves. Could this have been why they died so close in time?
> Son John went to live with Newton Tucker and family--and guess what
> there was a son of Newton's by the name of Royal. So I feel that he
> was the Royal that the family mentioned. And it was Ephraim JR. that
> he moved to Kansas with.
> Cyrena married again and moved to Dakota Terr.
> It seems that a lot of the above persons that were still alive in the
> 1850's also moved around La Crosse Wisc. and across the river in
> Minn. Land Records and La Crosse history mentions them.
> By 1860, Welsey, Ephraim Jr. Cyrena and her second husband, with
> their son William are living in Kansas. John had joined the Union in
> Wisc. and died in Corinth 1862.
