Dear Barbara, Lots of the old streets in Duncanville are named for early settlers there. There is a Hustead street. Since the family has been found in Dallas County on the census it would't hurt to check out Duncanville, too. For many years Duncanville was a delightful place to live. I lived and taught school there.
