WILLIAM G. DUNCAN was born February 11, 1847, in Henderson County, Ky., and
is a son of Absalom and Elizabeth (Robbins) Duncan.  The father was born in
North Carolina and now resides in Henderson County, of which the mother is
a native.  Our subject, at the age of eighteen, commenced farming on his
own account.  He first purchased thirty-six acres and added other lands as
his means would allow; he now owns a farm of 132 acres, on which he resides
and which is one of the best improved in this locality; he also owns four
houses and lots at Robards' Station, Henderson County.  Mr. Duncan was
married, in 1865, to Louisa Cavanaugh, of Henderson County; this union has
been blessed with six children, one son and four daughters are living.  He
is a member of the Masonic fraternity.
