James Duncan (May 5, 1857 – September 14, 1928) was a Scottish American union leader, and president of the Granite Cutters' International Association from 1885 until his death in 1928. He was an influential member of the American labor movement, helping to co-found the American Federation of Labor.
==Early life==
Duncan was born on May 5, 1857,〔''Who's Who in New England,'' 1915.〕 in Portlethen, Kincardineshire in Scotland. His parents were David and Mary (Forbes) Duncan. His father was a farmer, and David was raised Presbyterian. He attended public elementary school in Aberdeen, then apprenticed as a granite cutter.〔
In 1873, Duncan became a full-fledged granite cutter. His first trade was as a maker of headstones, but he later carved granite statues as well.〔
Duncan married the former Lillian Holman in 1887. The couple had one child.〔Fink, ''Biographical Dictionary of American Labor,'' 1984.〕
