Book: John and Edward Tuck of Halifax County, Virginia and Some of Their Descendants compiled by Aletha Jane Macon, copyright 1964, from page 11:

JOHN TUCK, b. ca. 1777. There are two marriage records, either, neither, or both, of which may belong to him: (1) 29 November 1802, Halifax County Virginia to MARTHA HESTER; (2) 9 November 1814, Granville County North Carolina to MARY FLETCHER. He and his family are said to have moved to Kentucky, probably before 1820, as his name is not in Halifax Census records of that year.

—————————————

The death date for John TUCK is before the marriage date to Mary FLETCHER?
