Is anyone have William M. & Nisa/Nica___? DUNCAN of Bradley or Kinkaid tsp in their family? I am not related in any way, but one of my relatives, Hartly J. LINGO, was the administrator of Wm M. Duncan's estate in 1880. I perused this probate file at IRAD to determine if the Lingo's were connected to this family. I believe not, that Hartly was just a friend, but I made detailed notes that I would be happy to share with anyone researching these families. Legal description of real estate owned by Mr. Duncan is given. Mr. DUNCAN died Nov. 25, 1880, leaving a wife Nisa? who died prior to 1887. His other heirs included his children Robert, Ellen, Henry, Hezekiah, George W., Charles B., Albert, Monroe, & Cornelius A. DUNCAN and Avie (Duncan) WEIBUSH (or NEIBUSH). Grandchildren, the children of two deceased daus., one of whom was Mary (Duncan) MIFFLIN: Jackson, Samuel, Mattie, Daniel and Jane MALONE; and Clinton and Albert C. MIFFLIN. Apparently the MALONE children lived in Randolph Co. at that time, and Henry and Hezekiah DUNCAN were in Texas. A letter from Ellen DUNCAN of 1887 indicated she was in East St. Louis, and that her brother Robert was in Leon, Arkansas last she knew. An Arminda O'DANIELL made claim against the estate for wages as a servant girl for 1 yr and 24 days, from Jan. 1877 to Jan., 1878. A William P. MALONE of Rockwood is mentioned as guardian in Mar., 1884 for Daniel P., Ezekial J., William, Eliza E., James M., Carrie B., and Jane MALONE. A Sarah S. (MALONE) LAWDER is also mentioned. Hope this helps someone. Juli Claussen
