Yes, he is related to the North Carolina Duke family. He is my first cousin. His father and my mother are brother and sister. His grandmother lived in North Carolina, outside of Fayetteville North Carolina.
Only if his father was a duke. There are two types of marquess: 1) A marquess by right. Marquess is the family's senior title, held by the head of the family, e.g. the Marquess of Bath, owner of Longleat. 2) A marquess by courtesy. The eldest son of any peer above the rank of baron takes his father's second most senior title as a courtesy title. A courtesy title has never conferred the right to sit in the House of Lords, and the holder is not a peer of the realm. Usually, but not always, a duke also holds a marquessate, which can be used by his eldest son e.g.. the Duke of Bedford's eldest son is the Marquess of Tavistock. He will become the duke on his father's death. Where a duke does not hold a marquessate, his eldest son will not be a marquess, e.g. the Duke of Norfolk's eldest son is the Earl of Arundel, because the earldom of Arundel is the second most senior title held by the family.
William replaced his father the Duke of Normandy and became Duke himself before invading England and replacing King Harold II as King.
