i.

Irvin "Ervin" DURHAM was born about 1867 in Alabama. Subject: RE: Irvin Durham ca 1867

Isaac Emerson Durham born 13 Aug 1871 and D 28 May 1947
Ervin, His brother Was born abt 1867 He married Rebecca A Branum. His tombstone does not list his birth or death dates. Yes, he was another son of Jesse and Madora.

As far as I know Emmette didn't have any children.

Ervin, his brother, Had John A born abt 1886, James T born abt 1888 and Sarah A Durham Born abt 1889.Rebecca married a William B Hass after Ervin died. These are the children listed on the 1900 census in her home.

I was at the Larkinsville grave yard and ran into decendants of Ervin. I did not know at the time that they were related to me.

The Durhams are not my direct line. Catherine Madora was married to a Martin Sims and had Laura Forestner Sims. (My line) Martin died during civil war and Madora Married Jesse Richard Durham.

Jesse Richard Durham's Mother and father, Isiah Durham and Anne Evans are also buried in blue Springs cemetery in Larkinsville. There are no birth or death dates on their graves either.

Let me know if I can be any Help.
