The leader who organized the rebellion against Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] was the subsequent King Malcolm III [d. November 13, 1093]. Malcolm was the elder son of murdered King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040]. He left Scotland for England, and his younger brother Donalbain, the subsequent King Donald III [d. 1099], went to Ireland. Nothing more was heard of Malcolm's brother, in the Shakespearean play. But readers and viewers learned of Malcolm's seeking support within England for an invasion of Scotland. Ultimately, he succeeded in finding that support. In the invasion, the leader of the 10,000 man strong English forces was Siward, General in the English army and Earl of Northumbria. But the member of the rebellious forces who actually overthrew Macbeth was Macduff. Macduff tracked Macbeth down on the battlefield, killed him, and brought his head back to the combined forces of invading Englishmen and discontented Scotsmen.

How older was duncans 1st guard?

I imagine you must be talking about Macbeth, because you name Duncan, and the only guards he has are those who Macbeth kills. But they are always named together as "grooms" and "chamberlains", and they are never distinguished from each other. There is no "first guard" and there is no indication of their age.
