Cornelius was born on April 10th, 1805 in Bolton and his baptism took place on April 10th, 1805 at Moor Lane Baptist.¹²

Birth Notes
- Aged 25 on 1841 census, which must be an error as aged 46 on 1851 census.
  
  10 APR 1805 Moor Lane Baptist-Formerly Scotch Presbyterian, Bolton Le Moors, Lancashire, England. This Church was only founded in 1803, so Parents John and Mary may have been married here, or another Baptist Church.

Cornelius' father was John Buckley and his mother was Mary Leech. His paternal grandparents were Benjamin Buckley and Sarah Ogden(?). He had two brothers and three sisters, named Jonathon, Benjamin, Sarah, Mary and Ellen. He was the second oldest of the six children. He died at the age of 68 in June 1873 in Bolton.
