Morgan Duckett was the son of Samuel. See 1900 census of Union Co., SC. Samuel and his brother George were two illegitimate sons of Rachel Duckett, daughter of William Duckett, son of Joseph Duckett. See the 1850 census of Newberry Co., SC. Joseph Duckett was the son of Jacob & Sarah Duckett orginally of Frederick County, MD. This Jacob was a son of Richard Duckett the immigrant to America. William Duckett, father of Rachel is buried in the Duckett Cemetery in Whitmire, SC. In the disbursment of the estate of William, grandsons Samuel and George were denied sharing in the estate because at the time illegitimate children were declared not eligible.
