| Anecdote |
- John was a carpenter and family members report that he helped build the first Bethel Baptist Church near Bloxom. Church records show he, his brother Severn, and his sister Susan were dismissed from the Modest Town Baptist Church on 24 Jul 1853 to become members at Bethel. He apparently became a layman preacher, for on 25 May 1864, John E. Bundick was granted a permit to marry Accomack County couples.

| Biography |
- John E. Bundick bought Buzzard Hill in 1851. His 1896 marriage to Anna Wright listed him as the son Elijah Russell and Polly Bundick. He was granted a permit to marry people on 25 May 1863 (Acc Co Orders, 1862-65, p. 83). Reverend John E. Bundick died in 1897 at the age of 78 years (Pen. Ent.).

1850 |
Accomack Parish, Accomack County, Virginia, USA [1] |
- He was shown as John E. Bundick the head of HH#495, age 28 and a carpenter. Living with him were Leah Bundick, age 25, Melinda Tatham, age 2, and Jesse Tatham, age 8.

| Land - they bought land |
Jul 1851 |
Accomack County, Virginia, USA [3] |
- The deed showed that John E. Bundick bought a small piece of land from John T. Bloxom and wife for $25. The deed does not give the acreage, but this plot was bordered by other lands of John E. Bundick. Since a deed of his buying land before 1851 has not been found, his wife Leah must have inherited family land and might have been a Bloxom.

| Land - their land was surveyed |
26 Apr 1866 |
Accomack County, Virginia, USA [5] |
- It was on this date that John E. Bundick's land was surveyed as 8 1/4 acres, "one mile northwest of Modest Town." In later years it became known as Buzzard Hill and can be located today on U.S. Route 13 north of Nelsonia, opposite the Pepsi Cola Bottling Plant. It contained 35 acres on 28 Mar 1933, when his son, Asa T. Bundick and wife Sue A. deeded it to their son. There is a graveyard in back of the house that at one time had tombstones, but none are showing today. John's obituary states he was buried there.
