Poking about in other works that Google suggested elsewhere, it seems
possible.

According to this
https://www.handplane.com/65/buck-hickman-1935-catalog/

There were three Buck sons and a daughter (early 19th Century)
George
Joseph
Matthew
Ann (Married to John Roe Hickman)

Then some work Brian mentioned listed the three Buck Bros as being
descended as follows.

http://brianwelch.galootcentral.com/buck/index.htm

B 1746 - Joseph Buck (i) (Grampa)
B 1801 Joseph Buck (ii) (Dad)
He had three sons, the "Buck Bros"
B 1826 John
B 1829 Charles
B 1831 Richard Taylor

So its possible that the Joseph above with Charles and Matthew and Ann was
one of the 2 Josephs that sired the Buck Bros.  I have not found anything
that confirmed it, and Joseph was a pretty common name back then I fear.

I can find no documentation supporting this, so its a wild guess.  The
first link lists names, but not birth dates or locations, so I am running
into hurdles for the time being.  M goodman is at home (only v2)

Enough screwing off, gotta get back to work.
