This Priscilla turns out to be Priscilla West, of IWVA, widow, married to Robert Duke, or Duck, of IW. Robt. was s/o William Duck/Duckes, s/o Wm. and MargeryDuck/Duckes of IW. This family also shows ties with the Crenshaw family, and in particular, Thomas, brother of Jos. Crenshaw. Thomas Crenshaw also had land in IW, and in the 1757 will of his brother, (Joseph) he was put in charge of Micajah, Joseph's youngest son.
This information above, plus the fact that members of the Pace and Boykin families of IWVA and Northampton/Halifax/Edgecombe Co., NC, are all on deeds with Micajah Crenshaw and Crenshaw Duke, in Lancaster Co., SC,
shows that there is a definite connection between these Duck, Duke, andCrenshaw families.
These Paces and Boykins are also the same people who appear on deeds with Robert Duke (s/o Robert Duke and Isabel Vinson) of Northampton/Halifax Cos., NC.
I welcome any help from anyone who is researching these above Duck and/or Duke families or has any further info regarding this subject.
