Duncan formed a partnership with his two sons Harry B. and James E and his son-in-law August H. Heisey. From 1874 to 1892, the company was known as Geo. Dugan & Sons. John Earnest Miller, former head of the mold department at King, Son, and Company, joined Duncan in 1874. Miller designed many of the glass patterns produced by Duncan over the next 50 years.
