I know for sure that Louisa Ann Howell Duncan didn't have any children by Dinsmore
Cargill. She was b 1822 in TN, moved to IL abt 1829 with her parents. She was married to
Chas. B Duncan until 1873 when Chas. B died. They married in IL abt 1848. Moved to TX
abt 1855, to Erath Co by 1860. What I was wondering, Did Louisa & Dinsmore Cargill
Divorce?? They are in separate hholds in the 1880 Erath Co TX census. Both list that
they are widow/widower. Dinsmore is in his son's, Dinsmore, hhold in 1880. In fact
this hhold is in the 1880 Erath Co census twice. On 14th June, pg 56B, this hhold is 3
hholds after Louisa Cargil's. Louisa's Duncan children are all listed as Cargils,
but they are really Duncans!! On 15-16 June, Dinmore's (son) hhold is also listed on
pg 81B. Louisa's tombstone lists her as L A Duncan.
