Notes for Fleming R. Quesenberry
Probably died in the Civil War.
Notes for Catherine Duncan
Birthdate is very approximate. She was listed in the 1850 census as age 17, and in the 1860 census as age 22. The difference is large enough that I would suspect a misidentification, but other people’s trees are very consistent that the Catherine Duncan who married Fleming Quesenberry is the same one who was the daughter of Henry Duncan and Elizabeth Weddle.
