Description
This is the fascinating story of Captain William Duncan,who was born 07/20/1840 in Scotland, near Edinburgh. He came to North America by way of Canada, then settled in Elgin, Illinois. In 1860 he graduated from Elgin Academy and shortly thereafter enlisted to serve in the Thirty Sixth Illinois Infantry of the Union Army. During the war he distinguished himself for valor on many occasions, most notably while serving under General O.O. Howard during Sherman's March to the Sea. When the Union Army reached Savannah,Georgia they found themselves cut -off from their supplies. When ordered by Sherman to locate the supply ships, Howard dispatched Captain Duncan and two others to contact the Union fleet. The journey took three days and at one point Captain Duncan floated by an armed blockade in a hollowed log. Captain Duncan located a Union gunboat that carried him to Hilton Head Island. Supply ships were sent to Savannah, Georgia and Duncan continued on to Washington to deliver news of the successful "March to the Sea" to Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton. After the war,Duncan returned to Elgin, Illinois to marry Lucy Harwood before moving to the Dakota Territory where his brothers had already settled. In 1876, he was elected to the legislature of the Dakota Territory and re-elected once again in 1884. Duncan and his wife, Lucy, passed away on the same day, February 4th, 1925. This book has a fascinating story to tell about this "Forgotten Man" who gave so much to his country and received little recognition for his valor. This book is volume one of a series of upcoming books the author, George Stoy plans to write in the near future about other "Forgotten Men"
