     ENOCH BUCKLEY,* of Exeter, N. H., who for the last seven years
has been care taker for the Isabe1la J. Gale property, was born in England,
January 30, 1853, and came to America at the age of thirteen years. His
father, Phillip Buckley, was twice married; first to Martha Bottomby. who
died in England, leaving four children--James, Thomas, Seth and Enoch.
Mr. Buckley later married his second wife, Rachel Shancross, who accom-
panied him to this country in 1867 the family landing at Portland, Me., on
April 9th. They came directly to Exeter, where the father, a cotton spinner
by trade, found employment in the plant of the Exeter Manufacturing Com-
pany. He and his second wife both died in this city and are here buried.
Born of his second marriage were two daughters: Elizabeth. wife of Frank
Durbin, and Sarah Jane, wife of Fred Ham.
     Enoch Buckley went to school only in his native England, but improved
his education by night study after coming to this country. He went to work
in the cotton factory as soon as he arrived here and was thus employed for
twenty-five years. He then worked nine years in a shoe factory, after
which he accepted his present position.  Mr. Buckley was married in 1878
to Miss Annie McNulty, who was born In Ireland and came to America
when twelve years old. Her parents were Hugh and Sarah (Clark) Mc-
Nulty. The father, a laborer by occupation, died in Ireland and his widow
subsequently married a man named Jones, who was killed in a sawmill the
day after their marriage. The doubly-bereaved mother of Mrs. Buckley
afterward became the wife of Joseph Perkins. Her children were all by her
first husband, namely: Annie, Kate,  John, James, and Edward. Mr. and
Mrs. Buckley have a daughter, Ida May, who is secretary in the Robinson
Female Seminary. The family attend the Episcopal church, and in politics
Mr. Buckley is a republican.
