It's probably based on info. I passed on to her, and was the best I knew at the time. Louis Dore(r) was an individual who was most likely her first husband, but I never found proof of that, and still haven't. And Mary Lucrecie Duncan was the best name I had for Lucretia E. Duncan. My father (her son by Samuel M. Johnson, and who was about 5 years old when she died) thought her name was Mary Louise Duncan, but I haven't seen Mary on any documents I've found. Mortgages she later signed with Samuel M. Jonson give her name as Lucretia E. or Lucrecie E. Johnson. Lucretia E. was most likely her real name -- she was the daughter of Elijah Duncan and Eliza Jane (Lewis) Duncan, and had a maternal grandmother named Lucretia E. Dickson. Both my father and the death certificate for Dollie May Dore stated her family name was Duncan. Her first husband might have been James Dore, as reported on Dollie's DC, but I don't know t! hat from any other source, and haven't found any Duncan/Dore marriage record. The Dore children are all said to have been born in AR, and I'm thinking the first marriage to Dore would probably have been in Little River or Miller AR or possibly in a nearby Texas county. The closest record I've found is this: Texas Marriages, 1837-1973 Groom's Name: J. B. Dorough Bride's Name: Mary L. Duncan Marriage Date: 25 Nov 1886 Marriage Place: , Fannin, Texas.
