Many researchers have confused the parents of John Tucker. It’s easy to do for many names that belong to multiple people in the same era and geographic location.
In this case, our earliest known and documented Tucker was John Tucker, born 1765 in Maryland and died 1855 in Indiana, married Sarah Sally Richardson. This is documented by the will of John’s father-in-law John Richardson. We refer to this John as John Tucker Ours.
John Tucker Ours was a different person that the John Tucker who was the son of Seaborn Tucker, as evidenced by lack of DNA matches and census records. While John Tucker ours may be related to the Seaborn Tucker line, his father was not Seaborn Tucker.
Below is the evidence.
Seaborn Tucker (1672-1753) married Dorothy Ann ? Harrington Tucker (her first husband was Harrington). This is documented by Baltimore County Families and Maryland US Wills and probate records, and Colonial Families of Anne Arundel by Robert Barnes.
They had a son named John Tucker (1698-1757) born and died in Arundel County, MD. He and his wife Martha Cobb were the parents Seaborn Tacker/Tucker, 1742-1805, who married Elizabeth Hitchcock. This is evidenced by will of John Tucker (1698-1757) and Seaborn Tucker’s will (1705) and will of Seaborn Tucker died 1757 in Anne Arundel County, MD).
Seaborn Tacker/Tucker married Elizabeth Hitchcock. Seaborn Tacker/Tucker was born 1742 in Maryland died 1805 in Rowan County, NC, evidenced by his father’s will written 24 Dec 1805. Signed his will with a mark, no signature.
One of their children was John C Tucker (1776-1852) not to be confused with John Tucker (ours) who died in Indiana. John C Tucker was born in MD 1776 and died in Giles County, TN 24 Feb 1852, evidenced by FindAGrave, marriage records, 1820 1840 1850 census records. This John was married to Elizabeth Evans and they went by the surname of Tacker.
In fact, after Seaborn died, his children (except for son William Tucker who died in 1794 in Rowan County, NC) moved together to Giles County, TN and can be found there – including Susannah Tacker Morris, Hannah Tacker English, John C Tacker, Joshua Tacker, Jacob Tacker, and Nancy Tacker McCrary.
My Roots Genealogy 
So, I know very little about BLOG posting. But, as the primary researcher of My Roots, I want to keep posts interesting and relevant. I have been out of touch and away from my computer for numerous months due to family aging! I have been blessed with my mother full time beginning in March, 2024. She is legally blind and was quite frail when making the move to my house in Arkansas. God has been good and her mind is clear. I have now inherited a treasure trove of photos and have been making the most of listening to stories and to family relations. The fun part is identifying photos that have clues written on the backs. I suppose great grandparents thought they would live forever and, after all, they knew who these people in the photographs were! It is quite neat to be able to identify friends and to run down many of the families who lived long ago in McDonald County, Missouri!
