It's Surname Saturday, and I'm "counting down" my Ancestral Name List each week. I am skipping numbers 319 to 351 because I don't have names or information about them.

The only book that I have, or a website, with significant biographical information about these families is:
Joseph L. Gahimer, Early Tuckers (http://www.gahimer.org/html/early_tuckers.html, accessed 13 January 2012).
The site provides a list of sources used.
There are a number of databases on the RootsWeb WorldConnect family tree system that provide different information for the Robert Tucker family, including Henry Tucker's birth and marriage. I don't know which is correct...
Are there any Tucker cousins with authoritative information?
