    HISTORICAL NOTES

    Tradition told by the Reid family is that Nancy married young as Marquis (Marcus) D Lafayette Reid had been widowed for several years prior to their marriage, and was undoubtedly grateful to again be married. Records indicate that MDL and Nancy lived in the Armuchee area (near the Duke
    residence) from the time they were married until about 1877, when they moved to Utah.

    While living in Armuchee, Marquis encountered LDS [Mormon]
    missionaries who later converted the family. Their conversion to the Mormon faith was likely what resulted in their eventual move to Utah

    HISTORICAL RECORDS

    Source: NOTES ON THE GREEN R. DUKE FAMILY by Douglas P. Reid

    Green's family settled in the Central Grove District (Armuchee) of Floyd County, near his brothers, James and David, sometime before 1860. He donated land and $90 for the Pleasant Valley North Baptist Church. His son, Martin, later gave land to the school board for a school house -- the Central Grove School or "Duke School House" -- on 19 May 1900. Julia Ann Duke's husband, William McKenzie, was a preacher at the Floyd Springs Baptist Church above Armuchee.

    Green R. Duke's property in 1890 consisted of 151 acres, a black mare, a mule, 2 milk cows, 5 hogs, 53 sheep, two wagons, farming and household items. He farmed cotton.

    Green bought the Armuchee property (160 acres) from his brother, David, on 4 December 1852. He was present in a land transaction of Thomas Duke on 6 January 1850. (Thomas was 47 in 1850, and was probably an uncle or brother). On 20 January 1862, Green R. was appointed administrator for his brother, David's, estate.

    In the Civil War, Green R. Duke was injured three times, and as a result, he required pain medication for the rest of his life. His tombstone inscription says he was "a good man."

    This part of Floyd County was settled in 1854. Jimmie Duke and his family being the first settlers. Mr. Duke bought 160 acres of land at the intersection of the O'Brien and Central Grove roads for a gun valued at $25.

    His son, Lumpkin Duke, was a prominent man in the neighborhood and raised a large family, the boys of which engaged in the saw mill business. Two of his sons, Lumpkin and Tom Duke, are now living in Rome and are still engaged in the same kind of work.

Duke, who is now living in this neighborhood, is the oldest living descendant of the original settlers. Martin M. Duke gave the land on which the Central Grove School was built in 1900. The institution was known as the Duke School House for many years.

    Mrs. Henry O. Littlejohn, one of his daughters, lives near the school. Henry O. Littlejohn, who served the Berry School for the longest continous period of any of its employees, in charge of much of the carpentry work and the superintendent who built all of the log houses.
