I've run across the name while looking at census records for SC. I'm beginning to delve into my gg-grandmother's family, the Buckles, from Williamsburg County, SC. Because of a name written in a family Bible belonging to one of my gg-grandmother's sisters, I have begun to wonder if the family was Buckholtz (or some similar spelling) and changed their name to Buckles. If I find a connection to Abraham, I will gladly let you know.
