I found Thomas Henry Duncan, age 6 I think, in Rochester, NY in 1850 with his mother Catherine age 34, and sister mary Jane age 9. This implies that Thomas Henry Sr. Is deceased.

Thank you very much, shellyesq. I have concluded that this Thomas Henry Duncan is a different person than Thomas Duncan, son of Thomas Duncan and Catherine Johnston. For one thing, Thomas Henry is on the 1870 census in Brockton with his mother Catherine whereas Catherine Johnston was deceased in 1856 in Canada.
