Posted on: BaltimoreCity County Md. Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Md/BaltimoreCity/3011 Surname: Duncan, Brashcar, McCoy, Austin ------------------------- Emma Duncan married Frank Brashcar (or at least they had two children together one who lived and one who died)on April 21-28? 1870 William Leonard ? Duncan (Brashcar) was born not sure if his legal name was ever Brashcar or not. The story goes that Emma may or may not have legally wed Brashcar (some say Debasire but William Leonard Duncan's death cert says Brashcar) then he dissapeard shortly there after. Emma then married her first cousin John Alexander Duncan and William Leonard Duncan was legally adopeted by John. Emma and John never had any children together (thank goodness). Emma was born July 11 1850 in Baltimore as well as Brashcar and William Leonard. I have been told by my grandmother (now deseased) that the family (Duncans) had a large house on Carney Road with subway tracks that ran down it. This farm house was owned by Peter Duncan it was Yellow and white.There was a family cemetary as well that was never to be touched even if the land was sold. I do not know what Emmas fathers name was but she had a brother James and her mother was Cornelia McCoy. Would love to know how to find and futher information on Emma and family as I understand it no records before 1875 exsist in Maryland And I have not Idea what church they would have been affiliated with. Thanks Robbin
