HISTORICAL NOTES
Tradition told by the Reid family is that Nancy married young as Marquis (Marcus) D Lafayette Reid had been widowed for several years prior to their marriage, and was undoubtedly grateful to again be married. Records indicate that MDL and Nancy lived in the Armuchee area (near the Duke
residence) from the time they were married until about 1877, when they moved to Utah.
While living in Armuchee, Marquis encountered LDS [Mormon]
missionaries who later converted the family. Their conversion to the Mormon faith was likely what resulted in their eventual move to Utah

HISTORICAL RECORDS
Source: NOTES ON THE GREEN R. DUKE FAMILY by Douglas P. Reid
Green's family settled in the Central Grove District (Armuchee) of Floyd County, near his brothers, James and David, sometime before 1860. He donated land and $90 for the Pleasant Valley North Baptist Church. His son, Martin, later gave land to the school board for a school house -- the Central Grove School or "Duke School House" -- on 19 May 1900. Julia Ann Duke's husband, William McKenzie, was a preacher at the Floyd Springs Baptist Church above Armuchee.
Green R. Duke's property in 1890 consisted of 151 acres, a black mare, a mule, 2 milk cows, 5 hogs, 53 sheep, two wagons, farming and household items. He farmed cotton.
Green bought the Armuchee property (160 acres) from his brother, David, on 4 December 1852. He was present in a land transaction of Thomas Duke on 6 January 1850. (Thomas was 47 in 1850, and was probably an uncle or brother). On 20 January 1862, Green R. was appointed administrator for his brother, David's, estate.
In the Civil War, Green R. Duke was injured three times, and as a result, he required pain medication for the rest of his life. His tombstone inscription says he was "a good man."

Green's second wife is thought to have been a Dellinger, and married a Holland, who died in the Civil War.__Third Corporal -- Jno. S. Holland.
CENTRAL GROVE DISTRICT
This part of Floyd County was settled in 1854. Jimmie Duke and his family being the first settlers. Mr. Duke bought 160 acres of land at the intersection of the O'Brien and Central Grove roads for a gun valued at $25.
His son, Lumpkin Duke, was a prominent man in the neighborhood and raised a large family, the boys of which engaged in the saw mill business. Two of his sons, Lumpkin and Tom Duke, are now living in Rome and are still engaged in the same kind of work.
Jim Duke's brother Green R. Duke, settled on what is known as the Green Duke place in 1860. His son, Martin M. Duke, who is now living in this neighborhood, is the oldest living descendant of the original settlers. Martin M. Duke gave the land on which the Central Grove School was built in 1900. The institution was known as the Duke School House for many years.
Mrs. Henry O. Littlejohn, one of his daughters, lives near the school. Henry O. Littlejohn, who served the Berry School for the longest continous period of any of its employees, in charge of much of the carpentry work and the superintendent who built all of the log houses.

HISTORICAL SOURCES
NOTES ON CHARLES DUKE AND HIS FAMILY by Douglas P. Reid
Charles had a son by a first marriage who was a small boy in 1800 and witnessed his wedding to Nancy Elliott. Charles lived near the young families of James, Robert, and William Duke in Walton Co., Georgia in the 1820's. These men, as well as men named Thomas Duke and David Duke (son of John P. Duke) were probably all closely related to him; all except Robert appear on land records together with Charles. When Charles bought land from Henry White of Clarke County in 1826 - land adjacent to William Beard - Thomas and James Duke acted as testators. (These men both may be his sons or brothers). In 1830, Charles Duke is shown in Morgan County, while his son James was in Walton County where he had married Minerva Hightower in 1829.
Charles Duke seems to be related to John P. Duke who died in 1829 in Morgan County. Charles was at the estate sale, and later, drew for the orphans of John P. Duke in a land lottery in 1832. Other Duke relatives at this sale were Edmuond Duke (administrator), Thomas Duke, Sr. (son of John Taylor Duke), Thomas Duke, and John Duke, Sr.
The commonality of these men show that most of them were descended from the same family of John Taylor Duke, son of Captain Henry Duke and Elizabeth Taylor of Prince George County, Virginia. (The "tobacco Dukes" were also descended from John Taylor Duke). John Taylor Duke and his sons, Henry, Thomas, James, and Edmond moved to Georgia (Wilkes Co.) in the 1770's and 80's. These son were in their forties by then, with families of their own. It is known that Henry and Thomas both had sons named Charles Duke. Our Charles Duke was likely the son of James, Edmond, Thomas, or possibly Henry, and the grandson of John Taylor Duke. (See Evelyn Duke Brandenberger's "The Duke Family" for more on these men and their ancestry).
