The mother of our subject was Editha (McKay) Duncan, a native of Nelson Co. KY. Dr. Duncan was married, November 28, 1860, in Mason, Effingham Co. IL, to Miss Mary Ella White, born March 18, 1841, in Bond Co. IL. She is a daughter of William and Agnes (Johnson) White. He is a native of NC and she of TN.
