Thomas Bucklin Dr.4 was born on 27 September 1772.1328 Between 1820 and 1943 he was a Physician in Hopkinton, Massachusetts.1329 He died consumption on 9 January 1843 at the age of 70.3,4 Thomas has reference number Buck548. Thomas Buckin practiced medicine in and around Hopkinton, MA for about 23 years. His daybook fro the years 1841-1843 is kept at Amherst, MA.

Thomas (because of name, location, dates and his wife's family lived in Hopkinton, MA) is probably the Thomas Bucklin that was a defendant in the lawsuit by John Quincy Adams (the President) as a trustee for Harvard College v. Thomas Bucklin, reported in Pickerings Reports Vol VII, p 125 et seq (MA 1828). It seems that in 1741, Edward Hopkins, Esq., for whom Hopkinton, MA, was named, gave land to Harvard College after making rental leases that gave the right to use the land forever to Hopkins' tenants and their heirs. For example Thomas Bucklin was supposed to pay a rent of three pence sterling every year to live on the land and use it as their own land. Under a special state statute passed at the request of Hopkins and Harvard, the tenants were to pay their rents to the state tax collector as part of the total real estate taxes on the land, and the state tax collector was pay over to Harvard the portion for rent. (It was kind of an early idea for giving a tax exemption to a private college, since the tax collector was paying sort of a rebate to Harvard for owning the land.) In 1823, the state stopped assessing and collecting real estate taxes. Thomas Bucklin and the other tenants took the position that under the terms of the leases, they were to pay the state only as part of the taxes, and if the state did not collect taxes, they did not have to pay rent to anyone. The Massachusetts court decided that even if the tenants did not have to pay taxes, they had to pay rent. Bucklin lost, and Harvard got its three pence sterling due as annual rent.

Thomas Peck Bucklin116 was born on 25 September 1804 in Seekonk, Rhode Island.30,117 In 1836 he was an Agent for tea merchant Edward Carrington.1331 He died in 1870 at the age of 66 in East Providence, Rhode Island.30,86,1332 Thomas was buried in Newman Cemetery, East Providence, Rhode Island.30,116 He was an Owned famous clipper ship line.1333 He has reference number Buck2723. Thomas P. Bucklin was born at Seekonk, R. I., where he grew to manhood and entered the employ of Edward Carrington. Later Bucklin left Carrington's employment. He engaged in a tea business in New York very successfully, and became an owner of many vessels engaged in the trade with China and foreign ports. He was a founding member of the firm of Bucklin & Crane in New York about 1844. The firm owned the clippers "Comet, Celestial, Black Hawk, Intrepid" and others, all being famous vessels of their time. For example, see the following report about the Comet, in the Ships of the World: An Historical Encyclopedia.
Comet Clipper (3m). L/B/D: 241 × 41.4 × 22.2 (73.5m × 12.6m × 6.8m). Tons: 1,836 om. Hull: wood. Comp.: 525 pass.; 41 crew. Built: William H. Webb, New York; 1851. Built for the California and China trades, Bucklin & Crane's Comet was noted for her fine passenger accommodations, which included a toilet, library, and bathrooms. An extreme clipper ship, she was particularly good sailing to windward. Although her maiden passage to San Francisco was not especially fast (103 days), she continued to Hong Kong and loaded a cargo of teas and silks that proved the most valuable cargo ever imported into the United States to that time. The next year, Comet raced Flying Dutchman, which left San Francisco one day before her. On three separate occasions the ships were within sight of one another, and Comet arrived at New York in 83 days, 18 hours, a day and a half before her Webb-built rival. With freight rates to California low, in 1854 she was dispatched to Liverpool. Still under Captain E. C. Gardner, she proceeded from there to Hong Kong in a record 84 days, 16 hours, anchor to anchor.
Comet continued in general trade through 1862, calling in Australia, the Orient, California, and South America. In 1862, the London-based company of T. M. Mackay purchased her. Renamed Fiery Star, she was put in service with the Black Ball Line's immigrant service to Australia. On her first voyage from Queenstown, she carried a total of 525 passengers, 25 in first- and second-class accommodations. Homeward bound from her second voyage out, Fiery Star departed Moreton Bay on April 1, 1865, with a cargo of wool. Three weeks out, the ship caught fire and 17 of the crew volunteered to stay with the ship while the captain, 55 passengers, and remaining crew took to the ship's boats. Although the latter were never seen again, the crew of Fiery Star were rescued by Dauntless only hours before the ship sank. References: Cutler, Greyhounds of the Sea.

The firm of Bucklin & Crane were major suppliers of tea to the United States Navy. E.g., see Mssage from the President of the United States, to the two houses of Congress, at the commencement of the second session of the thirty-first Congress, December 2, 1850 . [President's Message, Printed for the House of representatives, 1850 at table at appendix page 360.]

He amassed a large fortune, probably aggregating a half million dollars, and was one of the wealthiest men of his day. His letters of 1858 show dealings in rum, cotton, coffee, and sending specie such as Spanish milled dollars to Batavia as speculations in currency. [See Rhode Island Historical Society, MSS 333. Edward Carrington Collection, Box 268).He retired in the 1860's, a relatively young man. His last years were passed on the site of the old homestead, where he had erected a new house. The land had descended in the family from the days of Queen Anne. A self-made man by his industry and intelligence, he was one of the eminent business men of his generation.

Carrington (Sr.) was one of the major persons involved in the China trade for the United States. Edward Carrington went to China in 1802. Until 1811 he remained in Canton carrying on an active business. It has been estimated that he accumulated a quarter million dollars by the time he returned to Providence. From Providence he engaged in trade with China with several ships which he owned. The merchant chip trade decline during and after the war of 1812, But by about 1830, it was rising and Carrington was again making great suns of money It was about then that Thomas P. Bucklin entered his employment.

In about 1830 the tea trade was centered on ships being sent out of New York, and young Bucklin was sent there to act as manager of the affairs in New York for Carrington, who remained in his home in Rhode Island. By 1933, Carrington was again having financial reverses, and Carrington was retiring his vessels from the China tea trade.

The depression of 1837 to 1843 ruined the Carrington family fortune, which was compounded by the death of Edward Sr., in 1843. Carrington's son (Thomas Carrington, Jr.) continued the business, but was not the business person his father had been.]Thomas Bucklin must have liked his early employer Edward Carrington, for Thomas in 1850, at the height of his business as an importer of tea from China, named one of his sons Edward Carrington Bucklin. Certainly it was not financially necessary at all for Bucklin to honor the Carringtons, for the Carrington firm was by then a debtor to Bucklin, and it is unlikely that the older Bucklin would have had any special friendship with the junior Carrington.

By 1854, the firm of Bucklin and Crane was sending collection letters to Thomas Carrington, Jr., asking for payment of amounts due to be made at least at the rate of $5000 a month. "We hope that you have remitted us today . . . Do not overlook it." and "We observe your request regarding an arrangement...we will defer entering upon the subject agreeement We fully reciprocate your feeling of personal friendship but wish our business relations to be treated in a business way."
