Omaha, Nebraska, ca. 1916-ca. 1920


Virtually nothing is known about Duncan Finlayson. He is listed in building permits as the architect for a school in Omaha, 1916, and as a school building superintendent in Omaha, in 1920. In 1920 he was married to Arabella (?), who was 59 years of age at the time.[3]
