Hello Maryann Many thanks for posting this last bit about this particular family as I was wondering where it fitted into my own family line but couldn't see the connection. Your posting has made the connection - Oman Duncan and Elizabeth Wright. Elizabeth Wright being my 2nd great grand-aunt; her brother James Wright m Janet Donaldson being my 2nd great grandfather.
