but I cannot not find any other information to back it up. I also cant find Betsy A maiden name. Can anyone offer any help on this?

Hoping someone can help

this is the information that I have:
James Duncan
Birth 8 Dec 1848 in Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Death 15 Sept 1913 in Beaumont, Jefferson, Texas, United States

married on 04 Dec 1872 in Columbus, Colorado, Texas, United States to

Cynthia Alice Patterson
Birth 25 Jul 1856 in Columbus, Colorado, Texas, United States
Death 22 Jan 1935 in Houston, Harris, Texas, United States

On one of the census records it says that James's father is from Scotland but I can not find anything else about his father.

James Massey who married Nancy Keeney also James Page who married Thankful Pendleton and James Franklin Houston

James Massey born about 1800 and died Before 7 Feb 1842 in Jackson Co, Missouri married Nancy Keeney born 1800 in Tennessee on of their children was Isaac Massey born 1834 and died 1870. He married Catherine Sage on 22 Feb 1853. Catherine was born 26 Oct 1833 and she died 28 Apr 1875. They had 3 boys.
John, Isaac J. and James. John married Ida May Wilcox and they had 2 sons Otis and Guy W. Guy Married Ur Nile and they had my grandmother Helen Massey who married Capt. James Ellsworth Page. His father was Ellsworth Blain Page who married Beatrice Houston (whose father was J.F. Houston born Aug 1860 in Texas and died 2 MAR 1935 who married (his 2nd wife) Emma Ada Ellzey born 02 Nov 1870 in San Joaquin, Fresno County, CA and died 25 MAR 1963 in Enid, Garfield County, OK, looking for them too). Ellsworth's father Lewis L. Page married twice, first wife Deborah X and 2nd wife Rosa Simpson. Lewis's father was James Page born 14 July 1783 in Argyle, Washington, New York, USA and died 21 Feb 1862 in Gibson County, Indiana, USA who married Thankful Pendleton born 7 Mar 1795 in Argyle, Washington, New York, USA and died 14 Mar 1868 in Gibson County Indiana, USA.

I am trying to find the parents of: James Massey, James Page, and James Franklin Houston and the first wife of James Franklin Houston. I think that James Massey and James Page's parents may have been from the UK but not sure on that.

I think I found it but I am not sure yet

I think that James Franklin Houston's father may have been J. B. Houston and his mother Mary A. The dates fit but I'm not sure if its them or not. HHMMZZ any idea's anyone?

Sloan Family

Samuel Sloan, Sr was born in northern Ireland, and he died 20 DEC 1791 in Unity Twp, WESTMORELAND Co. PA. He married Agnes\Ann Carnahan/Clarke? I'm trying to find his parents, I have all of his childrens informatino down to my Grandma Ruth's.

who I am looking for next

lol you gotta love family, my cousin says she is way past me on the Duncan's lol so I'm going to see what she's got and start on the Massey\'s and Page\'s. What I have on Massey's is Isaac Massey born 1834 and died 1870. He married Catherine Sage on 22 Feb 1853. Catherine was born 26 Oct 1833 and she died 28 Apr 1875. They had 3 boys.
John, Isaac J. and James. John married Ida May Wilcox and they had 2 sons Otis and Guy W. Guy Married Ur Nile and they had my grandmother Helen Massey who married Capt. James Ellsworth Page. His father was Ellsworth Blain Page who married Beatrice Houston (whose father was J.F. Houston who married Emma, looking for them too). Ellsworth's father Lewis L. Page married twice, first wife Deborah X and 2nd wife Rosa Simpson. Lewis's father was James Page who married Thankful Pendleton. So that's where I am at, at the moment. Here I go on another journey.

I found her

Ur Nile Gunby whew I came across someone else looking for the same thing and She had an email address there and I emailed her and hit gold. She has a lot of history on the Gunby family all ready and she is being kind enough to send it to me. What a relief lol. Now I am trying to find any and all information on J. L. Duncan and his family. Mainly in Texas. He married Hattie and his mothers name is Cynthia. Hattie and J. L. have 4 daughters named Noel, Jimmie Lee, Juanita, and Elsie and 3 sons names Basil (my grandfather) Forest, and Gerald. Basil married Ruth Berdine Sloan and they had 8 children. My biological father James Carlton Duncan is the oldest of the 8. Wish me luck yall cause this one seems to be harder than the Gunby family.
