I am interested in a Mitchell family who possibly has William Dungan listed in their household as an adopted son. This is one of many articles I've found, and yet to find two who agree on where this Mitchell family came from. This one states Illinois. William Dungan b. 1799 PA was the father of Nathan Dungan and father-in-law of Lillys Hamilton of Maury Co. TN. This article published in GOODSPEEDS info provided by Thomas Mason Dungan, brother of Nathan Dungan. Rev. William A. Dungan was born in Madison County, Tenn., in 1840, and is a son of Thomas M. and Nancy M (Mason) Dungan, and grandson of William Dungan. The latter was born in Illinois and was left an orphan in his infancy and was adopted by a Mr. Mitchell. He was brought to Tennessee in his youth and here resided until his death in 1850 (Madison Co.). Thomas M. Dungan was born in Williamson County (now Maury Co.). I believe William Dungan was born in PA not Illinois as stated in many other source documents. Appreciate any help if one notes him being in the household of a Mr. Mitchell? Thanks, Pat
