| NOTE: There are 3 uses for "Buckland" in Somerset. "Buckland Sororum" (aka Buckland Priory or Buckland Abbey) was founded in the 12th century in Durston and appears to have been suppressed before the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539. It is doubtful that any of the people who lived there had descendants.
Buckland Dinham (population 381) and Buckland St. Mary (population 521) are parishes still in existence. Buckland Dinham (or Buckland Denham) is about 2 miles northeast of Frome in the east of the county and Buckland St. Mary is about 10 miles southeast of Taunton and 8 miles east of Ilminster in southern Somerset. 19th century census enumerators may have shortened both places to Buckland when listing inhabitants, so particular care must be taken in transferring details to WeRelate.
Buckland is also a placename in the neighbouring county of Devon.
