Thank you so much for this information. Are you a descendant of this family? If so, I want to let you know that a male descendant of your line took the FamilyTree DNA test. His results showed an exact match with my Duncan cousins who have been tested. We are just beginning our research into this line. I think it is possible that Nathan might have been a brother or cousin to John Duncan, Jr. (b. circa 1785 - my g-g-grandfather) of Ashe/Alleghany County. If you aren't a direct descendant, would you be able to put me in touch with someone who is? You can e-mail me at nancy.mays@netzero.com or gnmays@netzero.net. Thank you so much.
