In 1859 Michael married Margaretha Barbara Bauer (1839-1906), daughter of another Roßtal family recently settled in nearby Frankenlust Township. The Buchinger family prospered, eventually owning over 500 acres of land. In July 1863 during the Civil War, Buchinger dutifully registered for the draft, but received an exemption due to weak eyesight. He eventually became blind.
The Buchingers raised eleven children, ten surviving to adulthood: George (b. 1858), Charles (b. 1860), Eva Barbara (b. 1861), Margaretha Katharina Luisa (b. 1863), Mary Barbara (b. 1865), George Conrad (b. 1867), John George Conrad (b. 1868), John Michael (b. 1874), Friedericka Wilhelmina (b. 1876), William John (b. 1878), and Kunigunda Emilie (b. 1880).
