The line through Duncan continues on a different path from his siblings who would progress through the MURRAY lines.
Helen’s lines are also different from mine as I have a different Grandmother.
So Joseph Angelo married Jane Catherine Kelly and they had one son Duncan.
Catherine died in the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918 and Duncan was raised by his aunty Valentina or Tina Quilietti Murray.
When Joseph Angelo remarried in 1920 Duncan remained with the Murrays.
He was always the eldest brother of the 13 Murray children.

Both Valentina Quilietti and Joseph Angelo had the same roots and the trees above are their joint trees as are ours
GEORGE CAMPBELL MURRAY was born on 12th June 1940,
son of Duncan Quilietti Murray and Jannet Donaldson Campbell.
He married HELEN SCOTT PARSONS in 1969 in Edinburgh.
They had four children, Helen, George, Jane and Craig.

HELEN as a youngster. She always loved the outdoors and it seems when she met her husband to be that they were kindred spirits.
She married Graeme Wallace in 2005 in Perth.

    We passed each other in Edinburgh on our mutual way to support the S.N.P.’s March for Independence.  Helen instantly recognised me, even although we have never met before.   We do have very similar characteristics.  With her were her son Dylan and daughter Ellie.
