I have some information on the Duty family from T.T. Hick's book if you don't have that. Mostly on Sarah and Samuel who married Fannie Harris.
Among other things, T.T. wrote
"bad set in his ways" self-willed and headstrong...I have heard that Rev. Willis Harris, a brother-in-law, coming in contact with the doctor, and perhaps getting the worst of the encounter, offered the remarkable prayer that Dr. Duty might never have a son born to perpetuate his name...At any rate, thirteen girls were born to him and his wife Fanny, but no sons...I have heard that he was so cross and self-willed that his wife and daughters sometimes plotted against him to get things that they needed."
