John David & Susan Martha Johnson Duke Gravestone

Judith,
I live in Texas and am related to the Duke family of Panola County Mississippi. david Duke and Elizabeth Jones Duke. On your cemetery fine, is John David Duke the only Duke buried in Panola County?
I have always suspected this John David Duke as ours but can't seem to tie him in. We have a John David Duke born 1861 s/o John William Duke , marr: Lucy Louanna. Do you know the parents of your John David Duke? Sure would solve this question to us.

Nice picture. I just went on a Cemetery hunting trip myself and came back with lots of pictures. Phyllis

Hi Phyllis: I too am descended from David & Elizabeth. John David is not the only Duke buried in Panola Co. I do have a John David Duke 1859-1920, s/o Francis Marion Duke & his 2nd wife who m. J. E. Tribble.

I just took a look at my Duke info: I show a JAMES DAVID Duke (1861-1906) m. Lucy Luanna Adams and a JOHN WALTER Duke (b. 1863 d. 1864) as sons of John William & Elizabeth Packer plus 6 other children.

My line is: David & Elizabeth; Francis O. & Gideon Bowden; Julia Franklin & James Goodman Bridger Sr; Birdie Wright & Augustus Smith Nash; Birdie Mildred & Horace Lee Dennis; Mary Evelyn & Russell E. Dant.

I lived in MD from the time I was 3 until last year when I moved back 'home' to Jonesboro, AR. My mother was born and raised here and my sisters & I were born here. You may have come in contact with my cousin Ingrid Roads who is also in Jonesboro.
Somewhere along the line we are 'cousins' and it's always nice to meet another relative. Hope this info has been of help.
