Walker.) I think she did this to preserve the correct spelling of her maiden name. My Ggparents Nancy Fincher and Enoch Benson Duncan named a child Harrison... A female of my husband's Yarborough/Clement/Herndon line came from NC and was in Red River Co TX 1850 Census... to Cooke Co TX. A Dallas librarian named Boykin was most kind and efficient. She protected our history. Thank you, Bonnie, Corine
