Likely one of John A Duncan's sons - from Linda Goddard

From Linda Goddard's collection.


Linda Goddard said this photo was labeled as George W. Duncan by a relative.  Vicki and Shannon don't think it looks like George W. when compared to other known photos of him though.

Bunch of us in Morgan County


This was labeled, "bunch of us in morgan co".

This is a closeup.  I think the larger woman in the front with her arms around the 2 girls might be Kate A. Jester.


Don Ross says that the girls are - Glada  & Eleanor Duncan

4th of July Group Photos


This appears to have been taken on the 4th of July.  Below are close ups from the photo.

Is this John Adam Duncan and his wife Elizabeth (Stombaugh) Duncan?



The woman below (on the far left of the group photo) resembles Kate A. Jester.  The girl directly in front of her skirts on the grass looks identical to the 4th little girl in the row.  Their blond hair is braided identicall.  Could these be the twins, Stella and Della Duncan?



SOLVED! Possibly William M Jester and a brother?
