This is a quick reference list of people who were possibly owned by the Duncan family in Nelson County, Kentucky. The purpose of this page is to give a starting point for building connections, and finding descendants of the people enslaved by Ellis Duncan (1803-1859), Nancy (Green) Duncan (1780-1806), and Isaac Wilson Duncan (1835-1907), OR possibly before them Thomas Jefferson Duncan (1769-1856) and his siblings.
It is recommended that through profile building be done for the slave owning Duncans, with a special eye to wills, probate records, deed records. Wills will occasionally list slaves as will probate records.
Then look to the 1870 census and see if given names show up,
IF they do, 1. search the muster rolls for the USCT, which for Kentuckians would have listed the name of the slave owner. Search the freedman's bureau records What you are lookin for any data points that match up, or better yet, name the slave and the slave owner.
