| Notes |
- Louie stayed in Holden until she married David Duncan and then moved i n w ith him at his Meadow, Utah farm. In later life they moved to Compton , Ca lifornia where David died. Louie stayed there a few more years and t hen m oved in with one of her sons in Salem, Oregon.
I am a great granddaughter of Louie Stringham. I descend from her 3rd ch i ld, Loraine Duncan Nance through her son, Blen Nance. I had a unique re la tionship with my great grandmother Duncan. We lived together in the ho m e of her daughter, Loraine and son-in-law Wendell Nance (my grandparent s ) in 1976. Great grandma Duncan was 88 years old, and I was 21 years ol d . Great Grandma had been a widow for 17 years. She lived with her child re n for months at a time. I had the great opportunity of living with he r fo r many months. I remember sitting together in the front room watchi ng ge neral conference. As the speakers spoke, she knew of many of them a nd o f their background. She'd say things like "Now there is good Davis C ount y Boy" about one of the apostles. She had a notebook, and would writ e dow n things that were said. Great Grandma Duncan would tell me about h er chi ldhood, and growing up in Holden Utah. Her mother was a midwife, a nd sh e would accompany her mother on many deliveries. I came into posses sion o f audio tapes of great grandma Duncan telling these stories. I tra nscribe d these tapes. I will upload this to memories, as well as the rec ordings .
In May, 2020, for Memorial Day, I wanted to go visit Great Grandma Dunca n 's grave. I called my aunt, Ann Nance Davis, (My father's sister, wh o i s the only living of the three children born to my grandparents) I as ke d her where Great Grandma was buried. Great Grandma died in Utah in 19 88 , so I assumed her grave was at a local cemetery. My dear Auntie Ann s aid , "well start driving, she is buried in California." My Aunt told m e th e story of the burial of Great Grandma Duncan. David William and Lo uie D uncan raised their children in Davis County, Utah. Great Grandpa Du ncan w as a Supervisor at the Church Cannery. He had an accident, and fel l fro m a great height. He suffered neurological damage, and was not reco vering . He was told that a warmer climate may help his recovery. So thei r famil y moved to Orange County, California in the 1950's. Then Great Gr andpa Du ncan died in 1959 and was buried at the Inglewood Park Cemeter y Mausoleum , in an above ground vault. Arrangements were made then for G reat Grandm a to be buried alongside him. Great Grandma Duncan lived fo r 29 years aft er Great Grandpa died. When Great Grandma died in 1988, he r body was tran sported to Los Angeles California, and she was interred i n the Inglewoo d Park Cemetery Mausoleum alongside with Great Grandfathe r Duncan. My gra ndparents, Wendell and Loraine Nance, were driven to Cal ifornia by my Aun t Ann Nance Davis and her husband, Don. I heard this s tory from my Aunti e Ann just yesterday (January 5, 2021) 32 years afte r the burial of my Gr eat Grandmother Louie Stringham Duncan.
