I was a bit curious about their family's genealogy as well. Jim Bob's father was:
Jimmy Lee "J.L" Duggar
b. 03 Feb 1936, Fayetteville, Washington, Arkansas, USA
d. 09 Feb 2009, Fayetteville, Washington, Arkansas, USA
m. Mary
I found the obituaries (http://www.nwanews.com/nwat/obits/73929/) and it says there that J.L. Duggar's parents were:
James A. Duggar and Velma Lee Boggs. From that point it's a little bit more difficult to find information.
I looked up on rootsweb.com the surname Boggs in Arkansas and only found this couple (who are at the right age to be Velma Bogg's parents)
William Calaway Boggs
b. 1879, Logan, Ark
d. 1967, Logan, Ark
m. Lula Belle Williams, 1902, Logan, Ark
As for James A. Duggar, I did the same thing. Searched for any Duggar's in Arkansas and all I could find was the possibly grandparents of James A. Duggar (and some of their children which were listed).
James' parents are unknown but as for his grandparents:
James Lutner Duggar
b. 26 Oct 1844, Salgohaia Cem., Conway Co., Arkansas
d. 17 Nov 1928
buried: Salgohaia Cem., Conway Co., Arkansas
m. Julian Ann Autrey, 31 Dec 1866, Salgohaia Cem, , Conway, Arkansas
I could not find any information on James Lutner Duggar's parents, but as for his wife, Julian, her parents were:
Lemeul Autrey
b. 1810, Spartanburg, S.C.
d. ?
m. Nancy Tapp, 1837, Franklin co., Alabama
I'm not going to keep on going, but if you want to know more, just search up these names on the mormon database (http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp) or http://rootsweb.com/http://rootsweb.com/
And for the record, I am possibly related to them, afterall (but through the Williams line).
