Family Group A
Descendants of Duncan Buie of Moore Co.,NC
A great deal of information has been added/corrected and updated for this family group.
With thanks to FW Johnston of Ft. Necessity, LA
Moore County, North Carolina
The Family Buie:Scotland to North America pp. 50-81
Duncan Buie, who was born about 1760 in North Carolina, lived in Moore County, and had several sons and probably some daughters. After careful comparison of census records, Bible records in possession of Della Elizabeth Buie, now deceased, of Gilmer, Texas, and Quit-Claim Deed (Family Group E) Catahoula Parish, Louisiana in which Gilbert and Malcolm Buie sold their interest in the Duncan Buie estate to Neil Buie for one dollar, the compilers have determined that Duncan moved to Catahoula Parish in 1812 and died there.
Duncan's known sons were Neill, Gilbert, Malcolm and Daniel. Bible records also mention an Alexander Buie who died March 19, 1844, and who was probably another son. Family tradition states that Angus Buie (Family Group CC) was a cousin to the mentioned sons. Duncan, Neill, Gilbert, Daniel, and Malcolm went to Amite County, Mississippi about 1812. Duncan and Neill continued on to Catahoula Parish, Louisiana. Gilbert and Malcolm rejoined them in 1823. Daniel returned to North Carolina.
There were many Buies living in quite close proximity to Daniel Buie in the 1850 Moore County census, but their relationship to this family group at the time of this writing is unclear (see discussion Family Group II)..
