possible Duncan/Hawkins marriage? 1830 SC

RebeccaRose53 — 5 Nov 2008 5:34:47 GMT

Just working on a hunch, but does anyone know of a Jane Duncan, born 1810, SC, that could have married a Hawkins, possibly an earlier relative of James Barnett Hawkins, mentioned below in the land transactions?

From the Mary Dobson website:
X-360: 1853, rec. 1854, P.E. Duncan and wife Mary A. to James Barnett Hawkins, 99-3/4 acres, the old Brock place, on Reedy River (more not copied). (FHL film 24,022)
X-362: 1854, P.E. Duncan to J.B. Hawkins, 125 acres on Brock's Creek; wit. Burell A. Duncan, James M. Ducan (Duncan) (more not copied). (FHL film 24,022)

The Jane Hawkins I am referring to is found in the 1850 Dade Co. GA census, and is apparently widowed or divorced? and has the following children:
Barnett, Thomas, Jeremiah, Martha, Itzack, Ernanda, Rivine,(possibly Divine?) Elizabeth. All of the children are listed as born in TN, with the exception of the oldest, Barnett.

They are living next door to a Duncan in my line, Manerva Duncan Lemmons, daughter of Oliver C. Duncan, or possibly William D. Duncan.

Does anyone know of this Hawkins family?
Regards, Rebecca

Duncan DNA Testing

tgduncan — 25 Oct 2008 3:43:33 GMT

I am trying to find a Duncan male direct descendant of Elias Duncan who would be willing to do a DNA test. I will pay for the test and have it sent to them. The person uses a kit sent to them at their home and just scrapes some cheek cells, place them in a vial and sends them to be tested. That person would have full control of the information. If you know of someone willing or need more details email me at tgdjr@atmc.net

Duncan/Raines connections, TN

RebeccaRose53 — 22 Oct 2008 3:11:29 GMT

Hello: Am trying to sort out the Duncan/Raines family connections in my family search...early 1800's, from NC to Warren Co. TN...I have a Lavinia (Viny?) Duncan married to an Asahel Rains, and a Kate Duncan married to John Rains. Also, a William D.B. Duncan married to a Dovey Rains. Were Lavinia and Kate sisters? Was Dovey a niece, possibly Asahel's daughter? And how were Lavinia and Kate related to John Jack Duncan, William D. Duncan, Lewis Duncan, Ambrose, et. al??

Was it Asahel Rains who cared for William D. Duncan in his later years?

Any insight appreciated.

John Duncan SC TN confusion?

RebeccaRose53 — 24 Oct 2008 1:36:54 GMT

Can any of you Duncan researchers out there help clear up my confusion...I can trace my family back through William D. Duncan and Frances Benson of Cannon Co. TN (through his son Oliver) but seem to be stuck at William D.'s father and mother--some sources say John Jack Duncan and Martha Patsy Dennis, and other sources say John Duncan and Nellie (possibly Denning?)

Is it the same John Duncan, but with a different wife? And I had always thought that Lavinia Duncan Rains was William D. Duncan's sister, but find her listed as a sibling of a Samuel Duncan and Robert Duncan.

My GGGrandfather Oliver Cromwell Duncan was born in SC, but was an early settler in Warren Co. and later Cannon Co. TN.
Thanks if you can shed some light on this--Rebecca

Robert Duncan - Buckingham, VA

andreasimon64 — 28 Nov 2007 9:34:24 GMT

Seeking information on a Robert and Elizabeth Duncan in Buckingham County, VA.

1850 Census
Robert age 30
Betsy A. age 26
George age 8
Emmaline age 11(?)

1860 Census
Robert age 40
Betsy A. age 39
George age 17
Emaline age 13
Robert J. age 9

1870 Census
Elizabeth age 50 - widowed
Emiline age 22
Robert J. age 19

My several times great grandfather was Cary Duncan born in Buckingham County. He did have a son Robert born about 1820 but I do not have any proof the Robert Duncan in these census records is his son.

In 1869 in Lewis County West Virginia a George Duncan son of Robert and Elizabeth married Eliza Newton daughter of George Newton and Lydia Ann Duncan. Also, Lydia was a daughter of Cary Duncan.

If anyone has any information that could help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Alfred Joseph Duncan

Madeleine_Duncan — 23 Sep 2008 11:02:19 GMT

We are looking for information on Alfred Joseph Duncan who we understand was born in 1876 or there abouts in New York, New York. He signed up and served in South Africa and India, and joined up again in the Scottish Rifles in 1915 and was killed in action in France in 1915. His wife's name was Jessie Blanche Corke.

His son was Alfred Duncan who had a brother Charles and sister Grace who married and her name became Licence. They lived in Littlehampton, Sussex.

We can't find any trace of great grandfather killed in 1915 or his wife in records - can anyone help. We believe Alfred's father and mother probably originated from Scotland as he joined the Scottish Rifles in Glasgow area.

I Have The 1837 Eli Hendrix and Mary Elizabeth Dinwiddie Hendrix Family Bible

dj_343 — 2 Sep 2008 7:28:19 GMT

Hello all,

I own the 1833 family bible of Eli Hendrix (1810-1869) and Mary Elizabeth Dinwiddie Hendrix (1815-1886). This was one of the bibles used by Ruth Ashmore Hendricks DeVerter (1899-1996) to collect data for her series of genealogy books. Eli and Mary were my GGG Grandparents and they purchased the bible for ten dollars in 1837.

I know of all the people referred to in the beginning of the bible with the exception of "Jonas L Belotte, born July 29,1799". I will look again through the DeVerter books to see if I can find him. He could be "Jonas Survis Lewis Belote", but I don't know how he connects to my family.

Shasta County
p. 229
WEBB and the DUNCAN Brothers
In 1852, Col. A. H. WEBB was living in Harristown in Shasta County, where he kept a store. He shrewdly preserved the good people from Indian depredations. During that time, three brothers named DUNCAN, apparently of Caucasian race but really one-quarter Indian blood and identified with the Cherokee nation, were causing much trouble in community. They were large and stout and very rough in manners and morals. One day two of these brothers, mounted upon half-broken mustangs, rode into and out of every house in the village, apparently on a wage, but making an exception of Mr. WEBB’S store, as the proprietor said he could not afford to have his goods damaged. They respected him. But the next day, having been taunted by a boon companion wit the failure to fully complete the stipulations of the bet, the two men were determined to do so, come what would.

Mr. Webb gave no more thought to the matter and was upon the second day busy with the store, when with a clatter and crash the younger of the two Duncans forced his foaming and struggling mustang directly into the store. Mr. Webb turned toward the intruder in astonishment and anger, and DUNCAN, noticing his indignation and immediately giving rein to natural insolence, exclaimed with an oath, “Perhaps you do no like my riding in here?” Irritated beyond endurance, WEBB stepped rapidly behind the desk, snatched a loaded pistol and covered the desperado in an instant, while he answered with stern emphasis, “No, I don’t like it, and you have just twenty seconds to ride out of here before you get this bullet in your brain. Go!” Duncan saw the merchant’s deadly purpose and, wheeling his horse, dashed out of the store in an instant.

The news that Mr. Webb had driven one of the Duncans out of the store at the muzzle of a pistol soon spread about, and while it increased his popularity with the majority of the people, it changed the feeling of careless friendliness with which the desperado brothers had hitherto regarded him to one of bitter hatred, which every one predicted would speedily culminate in a tragedy. But more than a year elapsed without anything of that nature happening, and WEBB moved to Bald Hill, in the same county, where he continued the same business. The DUNCANS were as frequently seen there as at Harristown. At a local election so held at that place, the three DUNCANS were, as usual, making themselves most conspicuous figures in the large assemblage, drinking and carousing. The polls were across the street from Webb’s store, and WEBB, being one of the judges in charge of the election, left the store in charge of his partner. He saw young DUNCAN in the store, but paid no special attention to it, as it has been so long since the trouble they had had.

Suddenly Webb felt his long hair seized from behind and a bowie knife coming in the other hand of the villain toward him, when a young man named KIT seized the would be murderer’s arm and arrested the blow at the very instant when the point of the weapon was against Webb’s breast. Foiled in his immediate purpose, but still retaining his hold both upon the knife and his intended victim, Duncan turned to the latter, saying tauntingly, while he savagely struggled to free his right arm for a second blow, “Why don’t you beg for your life?” “No, I will not,” was the answer, “the sooner you let me go the better it will be for yourself.” “Let you go?” shrieked the desperado as he struggled in vain to free his arm, “let you go! I will kill you first.”

The crowd separated the men. Webb remained in his room, his enemy being forced out into the street, and, being unarmed, looked around for a weapon. Several rifles were lying about, but as he picked up one after another, the owners told him they were not loaded. It struck him finally that the statements were not true, being made through the fear that most of the people had of DUNCAN and his gang, and examination of one of the rifles confirmed his suspicion. At this moment some one called out, “DUNCAN is in your store; he has attacked your partner.” Webb sprang across the street and into the store, found the report true and raised the rifle; but DUNCAN let go, sprang to the back door, and as he put his hand into his hip-pocket to get a revolver, WEBB fired upon him and shattered the hand while the pocket and the bullet also entered the body. DUNCAN did not fall, but fired the weapon with his left hand, missing his mark: WEBB rushed back to the polling place, got another gun, and as he merged into the street again, DUNCAN came out of the store and fell on his face. The crowd urged WEBB to finish killing him and rid the community of a desperado. A stalwart miner named RIDGE, who was an educated Indian, also urged WEBB to finish killing DUNCAN.

WEBB would not be persuaded to attack a fallen foe, and the latter was carried away by his friends. WEBB was then warned that he did the most injudicious thing for the safety both of himself and of the community. Sure enough, he was soon informed that threats of vengeance by the savages had been made. Seeing one of the DUNCANS passing one day, he said, “I have nothing to say to you personally, sir, but you will take this message to the young DUNCAN and his brother, tell them that if I hear of another word of threat being uttered against me, I will shoot young DUNCAN in his bed. Will you carry that message?” The man promised compliance and probably fulfilled his promise, for no other threats were heard from them afterward.

Webb, shortly after visiting the county-seat, was surrounded by citizens, who asked him whether he wanted a trial or not. He said he did not care—only the time attending one interfered with his business. The crowd immediately voted not to try him and gave him a banquet in the evening.

During the following year, WEBB passed through the Cherokee Nation on a trip to the East. He stopped overnight on a fine plantation owned by a middle-aged Cherokee of mixed blood, though to all appearance, a polished Southern gentleman. During the evening the following conversation ensued:

Host: By the way, Mr. Webb, were you ever in a county in California which I think they call Shasta?

Webb: Certainly, I have lived there several years past, and am very well acquainted there.

Host: Indeed! Then you must know my nephews young DUNCAN and his brothers?

Webb: Oh yes, I know them quite well. Are they your nephews, indeed.”

Host: They are my sister’s children, but tell me, since you know them so well, is it true that young Duncan was shot last year in a quarrel with some desperado or other?

Webb repressed a strange mixture of feelings and answered calmly, “It is said that he was shot, though why the man who did it can be justly termed a cut-throat or desperado, I must say no by any means certain.”

“Oh, well,” said the Cherokee, “it is quite possible I may have heard it incorrectly; it was only a very indifferent account that reached me. Please tell me all the particulars.”

Webb told them all, skillfully suppressing the name of the storekeeper in the affair, which his host did not notice.

“What became of the villain?” he finally asked, “is he still there?

“I believe not. In fact, I know he went away some months since, I have reason to think he left the State.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter; I dare say it was young DUNCAN’S fault, as you have suggested; he was always a wild youth, and when he drinks, there is no holding him in.”

The next morning, after a hearty breakfast, host and guest parted in a friendly manner. Some time after WEBB returned to the coast, some one asked him, “Colonel, supposed the planter asked you the name of the man who shot his nephew, what would you have said?” “I would have told him that his name was WEBB, but don’t known that I should have taken any particular pains to impress him with the thought that I was that particular WEBB.” “Supposed he discovered the truth; what would you have done?” “I can’t say with any certainty, of court, but I think he would have entertained me just as hospitably, and the next morning, he would have mounted his horse and ridden on the prairie with me until we were out of sight of the house, drawn a pistol, and told me to defend myself.”

“What became of young DUNCAN?” “Oh, he flourished for several years afterward, but finally had a quarrel with some one else and got a bullet between the eyes.”

William Duncan, Culpeper VA 1747

Rees Chapman — 18 Aug 2006 9:35:43 GMT

I’m looking for a William Duncan of Orange/Culpeper county VA who signed the death inventory of my ancestor, Isaac Chapman in 1747. I’m curious about Mr. Duncan because I’m trying to locate the place in Orange county where the Chapman home stood. My assumption is that Mr. Duncan would have been a neighbor.

The problem I have appears to be one shared with Duncan researchers: Culpeper county didn’t exist in 1702, 1726, or 1730 when William R., William, and Rosanna were born, although many GedComs say that’s where they were. Perhaps, they lived in a part of Orange county that became Culpeper in 1749. But, perhaps, they may have lived in the part of Culpeper that became Rapahannock in 1833. I see where William R. died in Washington VA in 1790, which was part of Culpeper, soon to become Rappahannock.
Can anybody locate these Duncans?

I’ll be a very infrequent visitor to this page; please, if you have something to share, also cc: me at winwinsit at hotmail dot com

Among the names of the representatives from the various Indian tribes who met in council with the Indian Territory invaders, we notice in your special from that “scat of war” that of Mr. D. W. C. DUNCAN, representing the Cherokee, I think. Mr. Duncan has been a resident of our city, still owning property here, for about ten years. His father was one of the chiefs of the tribe whose cause Mr. D. now espouses, thought not a full blood, and after taking a collegiate course at Dartmouth College, graduating with honors from that famous institution, Mr. Duncan came West, married his wife, who is a most estimable lady, and who is now with him, and has lived among us an honored principal of our high school and afterward a respected member of the Floyd County bar.

Pamela — 20 Jan 2002 7:03:54 GMT

I have just read several statements that seem to disassociate the Duncan's from the OK and MO area from the Duncan's from the AL, LA, KY and NC areas. I feel you all are very wrong. It is a very well know fact in our family that John Pickens Duncan and two other brothers came toward AL in the late 1800's from the North Carolina area. There were other family members that left shortly thereafter and headed in a more westernly fashion. Due to the fact that this was a large family, and some did not read or write, they did not go in the direction they assumed the first ones had went and sorta got lost and ended up in AR, OK and MO. The reason we know this so well is because one of my great grandfathers (Arlander Duncan) sisters left the AL area headed to where some of her other relatives were and was not heard from again for a very long time. When she returned she had married a Cajun decent man and had been living in the AR/MO area. In the 1950's one of Arlander's children visited with the family in OK and found that they were all from the same decent. I think you will find that John, James, William, Mary and Virginia are very common names in the Duncan families. My grandmother was Vergie Bell Duncan.

I am attempting to find a marriage record for the following:

John Van Vleck b. ABT 1826, New York
Elisa(Eliza?) Duncan

They had 1 son named John Henry Van Vleck b. ABT 25 Oct 1848 NY (possibly in Cayuga County).

This connection has stumped me now for the past 10 years ... I cannot find a record to prove the birth of John Van Vleck and am hoping something from his wife will help.

George C DUNCAN and Amanda K LIGHTCAP

audianaq41 — 15 Apr 2008 9:03:26 GMT

I am looking for parents of George C DUNCAN, born 5/1838 in PA, died 12/7/1907 in Philadelphia. He married Amanda K. LIGHTCAP, dau of George and Elizabeth (KERLIN(G) LIGHTCAP.
Amanda's dates 10/1844-7/7/1916 in Philadelphia.
She was born in Pottstown, Montgomery Co PA.

Her father George LIGHTCAP was a hotel/taven keeper in Philadelphia.
He died 1889 in West Philadelphia, per this OBIT from the Pottstown paper:

Montgomery Ledger, 5/7/1889:
George Lightcap died on May 2nd, after a lingering illness, in West Philadelphia, in his 76th year. He was a brother of Mrs. Charles Wylie and Samuel Lightcap of Pottstown; also of Mrs. Rebecca Goodfellow, of Reading, and Mrs. Col. A H Tippen, of Philadelphia, all of whom were children of John Lightcap, of Pottstown, long since deceased. George Lightcap was in the hotel-keeping business many years, having been landlord of the White Swan and Nelson's Hotel, and other houses in Philadelphia, and the Railroad House, (Murphy's) in Pottstown.

George C DUNCAN was shown as a butcher in census of 1880 in Philadelphia.
In 1890 City Directory he is also shown as butcher and residence is 3433 Lancaster Ave in Phillie.
In 1900 Census, residence is the same and he is shown as wholesale provisioner.

I found a George in 1860 Census in Lower Merion, age 22, son of George DUNCAN age 50 and wife Elizabeth. The father was a butcher, and I believe these may be the parents of George C DUNCAN. Does anyone recognize this family?

George C and Amanda had 3 children:
1. Mary L DUNCAN born 3/1865 married Edward M MULLEN
2. George Morton DUNCAN b 4/6/1878 m Bessie F McCABE
3. Edith E DUNCAN born 11/1881

Here are brief notices of death for George and Amanda from the Philadelphia newspaper:

Phila Inquirer, 12/10/1907 edition:
DUNCAN - On December 7 1907, George C Duncan, aged 69 years. The relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend the funeral services on Tuesday evening, at 8 o'clock at his late residence 3433 Lancaster Ave. Interment private on Wednesday morning.

Philadelphia Inquirer July 10, 1916:
DUNCAN Jul 7 1916 - Amanda K., widow of George C Duncan in her 72nd year. Relatives and friends are invited to attend funeral services, Monday, at 8 A.M., at her late residence, 5035 Walnut Street. Interment private.

The Walnut Street address was that of her daughter Mary L MULLEN and husband Ed M Mullen. So it appears that Amanda lived with them after George C had died.

Their son George M DUNCAN married Bessie McCABE and they only had one son - George C DUNCAN born 11/1899 per census.
I found him in Upper Darby, Delaware Co PA in 1930 Census, wife named Helen born c1903. They had married c 1926.

Would appreciate if anyone knows of this family.

Thank you,
Diana in AL
