Bondsman for her wedding was James Howard. John Howard was witness to a deed when Joseph Duncan bought land.

The only Howard family in Overton Co TN on the 1820 census is James Howard, three lines away from Joseph Duncan.

Jeremiah Duncan 50 TN household
Mary 78 TN

Is this her?

Mary Duncan 70 TN
Martha 23
Mary 19 TN
Lucinda 22 TN

She should be 66, and daughter Mary should be 38. However, the next family is her son Jeremiah. Maybe Mary is living with some grandchildren.
