Text source

David Duncan was a Scottish officer in Swedish service. He was a captain in George Crawford's [SSNE 2086] regiment from 1630-32. In the Karl Viggo Key Archive he is specifically noted as a captain in the lieutenant-colonel's company when he signed a receipt dated February 1630 

Swedish Krigsarkiv, Muster Roll, 1630/28,30-33; 1631/12-21; 1632/10-14: Swedish Krigsarkiv, 0035:0418 Karl Viggo Key Samlingen. Caution should be taken with the Viggo Key source as he believes the Earl of Crawford is Alexander Crawford. It is not, it was actually George Lindsay, Earl of Crawford.
