Merry, if you knew the person you were researching was buried in a certain graveyard, but there was no record on Find a Grave, I don't think there is anything stopping you adding information without there being photo.

I know I've added burials because there was a dob on the record and I thought it was a transcription from the headstone not just something added by a researcher. I have no idea who I've done this for now though!

Elizabeth, there is a James Buckley listed by rootsweb in Oyster Bay on the 1840 U.S. census. The data is supposed to have been taken from Ancestry, but I haven't yet succeeded in making the Ancestry search turn him up.
https://sites.rootsweb.com/~nynassau/1840obc.html Googling for more info, I came across a description of McCoun Cemetery. It says among other things that it contains "the McCoun family and others, burials from mid 1700s. Chancellor William T. McCoun, first New York State Republican Party Chairman buried here." https://paperzz.com/doc/9402911/hist...-of-oyster-bay I'm not sure if you will have recognized Oyster Bay as the residence and summer White House of Theodore Roosevelt. It's full of history, and quite upscale. EDIT: Oh look, it seems William T. McCoun himself is living next door to the Buckleys on that 1850 census. Last edited by Janet; 16-10-21 at 05:37.

Ah, here's the James Buckley in Oyster Bay on the 1840 census. Ancestry is spelling it as one word, Oysterbay; that's why I hadn't found him yet. Whether he is yours or not I don't know. Also, I see that Oyster Bay in those days was part of Queens, not Nassau County.
1840 United States Federal Census for James Buckley - Oyster Bay, Queens, New York, USA 1840 (City, County, State): Oysterbay, Queens, New York Free White Persons - Males - 50 thru 59: 1 Free White Persons - Females - 15 thru 19: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 20 thru 29: 1 Free White Persons - Females - 40 thru 49: 1 Free White Persons - Under 20: 2 Free White Persons - 20 thru 49: 2 Total Free White Persons: 5 Total All Persons - Free White, Free Colored, Slaves: 5

Janet, thank you very much. It looks like them.
There was also an Abel Buckley of New York as demonstrated by the following: "Manchester Mercury 24 December 1811 On the 28th ult at Mottram Longdendale, Mr Abel Buckley, merchant, of New York, to Miss Wright, of Scout Mill, near Aston under line." The Buckleys were an affluent family and their history is well-documented, although not 100 % accurately, here: https://archive.org/stream/genealogi...0fish_djvu.txt John Newton married Hannah Buckley in 1779 and the Buckley name was given to several generations of Newton descendants. I have just received two wills of siblings of Hannah - that of Nathaniel Buckley and that of Margaret Wareing. John Buckley, Hannah's father, mentions her three children in his will as does his unmarried daughter Sarah when she died.
