Well Sir, He married his 2nd wife in 1906 and family records that were passed on to me say he left Dade County in about 1908 to go to California. I know that at least one son-Arthur lived in California too, because I have corresponded with one of his grandchildren from out that way. Thanks for your feedback. You're right--the economy has alot to do with why they migrated. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, September 08, 2002 12:26 PM Subject: Re: [MODADE] Re: Caroline Matilda (White) Wilson > Eileen; > > I have it that David Waldo Duncan died in Porterville, Tulare County, is > that right?
