LaVerne, my grandfathr's first wife was my grandmother, Mary Elliott from NJ. Lillian was the wife after Helen died. LaVerne's parents were John Moir Duguid and Esther Cooper. Esther lived in Pawcatuck until her death. William and Isabella were my grandfather's grandparents. I also, had an Uncle LaVerne, he died several years ago from lung cancer. I was lucky enough to get a copy of my g-grandfathers obit from DE from 1959. It listed a brother in Maryland, so I checked the internet for sons or grandson and located my g-grandfathers two neices 75 & 82 who had family history with pictures. I now go back 13 generations on the Duguid side. Also found a Jim Duggan from Austrailia. We share the same gggg-grandparents. Amazing. Well, enough of my search, It was nice of you to e-mail me. I do get homesick although I was just in Mystic & Pawcatuck in Sept. for my sister's 25th. Have a happy holiday season. Cathy
