Buckeystown is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Frederick County, Maryland, United States.
In 1731, Meridith Davis received a patent for a tract of land called “Good Luck” on which the future village of Buckeystown developed.
[8] Though the meeting at Monocacy was short-lived, with many of its early members moving into the Colony of Virginia to join larger Quaker communities there, the Society of Friends near Buckeystown was among the first religious organizations effected within present-day Frederick County and western Maryland.
[9] During the Revolutionary War period, brothers John and George Buckey settled on the old “Good Luck” tract and initiated commercial and industrial establishments which led to the formation of the village.
[10] Buckeytown is located in southern Frederick County along Maryland Route 85, which leads north 6 miles (10 km) to Frederick, the county seat, and south 5.5 miles (8.9 km) to Maryland Route 28 near the Potomac River.
