I am trying to find the family of Robert John and Lavina DUNCAN They are my maternal Grandfather and Grandmother. According to a recorded tape made many years ago this couple left Ontario, Canada in 1898, came west, and settled in Washington. I have narrowed the search to Hamilton, Acme and Sedro Wooley and surrounding areas for the time period from 1898 to 1908. What would be the best way to track down this family. Are there City Directories available? Four children were born in Washington. They are Mary Elizabeth DUNCAN, Francis Viola DUNCAN, Lavina May DUNCAN and Robert John DUNCAN. Is there a grave yard near Acme? I am told to get to it one must cross over a set of rail road tracks and go up a hill. I have a picture of the stone (has a small lamb on top) for Frances V DUNCAN. The picture was taken some 45 years ago (I am in the picture as a child) and the dates are hard to read. Does anyone live close by this area or knows of this grave yard and can email me the information from the stone. One of the reasons my Grandparents came to Washington is Grandfather had relatives living in this area. I found two of my grandfather's cousins buried in Bellingham. 1. Elizabeth Isabelle DUNCAN, 1885 - 1947. 2. Robert A. DUNCAN, 1888 - 1967. I have not found their sister or parents. 1. Mary Ann DUNCAN, 1887 - 1919. May have gone to Idaho 2. Robert and Mary (PERRY) DUNCAN. May have gone to California. If you are related to this family or know members of this family please email me direct. Sorry about the length of this message.
