Some researchers claim that John Durham, a native of Yeasewater,
County Durham, in England, was the first immigrant in this family
line. However, if this is so, the line of descent from him has not
been traced. My grandmother, Euphemia Durham Creech, was a family
genealogist, and I can remember her saying that she could trace the
family into Scotland where it was a royal line. Unfortunately, nobody
in the family ever tried to write down any of the things she talked
about. When I was about 15 and my grandmother was dying of cancer I
asked her to record what she could remember. She traced out a few
generations but at that time she was only able to go back to my 2nd
great grandfather, James Franklin Durham.
In subsequent years my mother, Lillian Broughton Creech, and I have
spent more time tracing the Durhams than any other branch of our
family. I have always believed that repetition of given names from
generation to generation is a useful tool in genealogy. What makes the
Durhams especially frustrating is their excessive use of this
practice. Durham settlers in every part of the country seem to have
given their children the same names over and over again; e.g.,
William, John, Samuel, Jesse, Francis (Franky), James Franklin,
William Franklin, John Franklin, James Nelson, William Nelson, etc.
And practically every Durham family seems to have its Nancy.
After almost forty years of collecting every single scrap of
information that I could find on this family, my mother sat down one
summer and spent, perhaps, 400 hours piecing it together. Many of the
links have not been proven, but with her genius for genealogy, she has
managed to make it all fit together.
While all of the Durhams were hard to trace, the Harlan County line
was the most difficult of all. William Durham, Jr, and his son,
William Nelson Durham, were the first of our line to settle in Harlan
County, KY. We have speculated that these two either died young or
else were separated from their families since they have been
especially difficult to trace.

Children of WILLIAM DURHAM, JR, and SUSANNAH SHEARIN:
1. WILLIAM NELSON DURHAP!, b.ca. 1777 or 78, NC. More follows.
2. John Durham, b.ca. 1780, NC. In the 1810 Knox Co census he appears
with 6 young children. He may have been the father of William and John
Durham, both of whom relocated in New Columbus in Owen Co, KY. William
Durham, b.1798,
3. Catherine Works, 1847;~~Owen Co, and they appear on the 1850 census

agent at least once.

couple divorced. There was a lawsuit (Box 60/Book F, Page 83, dated
1835, Knox Co) with Jesse Durham vs Nancy Durham. The state archives
have been searched, but these records seem to be missing. Then in Bell
County, 1899 (Docket E-2, Book 19, P. 163, Case #3090 and 3094/Box
198), there is a lawsuit involving three of William Nelson's
grandsons: W.N, J.J, and C.C. Durham. This is also missing.

Horn and James Culton. His family follows.
Note: It is not known why James Franklin Durham migrated to Owen
County. There were other Durhams there, but it is not known for
certain if they were cousins. In the 1840 census of Harlan County,
Nathaniel Lee, "engineer or learned professional," is living alone in
house #103, and James Franklin Durham is nearby in house #111, with
his mother, Nancy Durham, and his grandmother. (In 1840 his two older
brothers and his sister were all married and gone, leaving James
Franklin Durham the only child still at home.) Then in the 1850 census
of Owen County, James Franklin Durham is listed in the household of
his mother-in-law, the widow Nancy Lee Gaines, sister of Nathaniel
Lee. James Franklin Durham served in the home militia of Owen County,
but he did not fight in the Civil War on either side, probably because
his family in Bell County was fighting for the North, while Owen
County was solid for the South. In fact, Owen County had the
distinction of being the Kentucky county that suffered the most during
and after the war. When the war was over, James and Nancy divorced,
and he took the three boys back to Bell County. Both parties
eventually remarried, but no more children were born to either union.

and Mary Catherine homesteaded in Missouri without any measure of
success. They returned to Bell County for a time, but they eventually
bought and operated a boarding house in Lebanon, KY. Note that while
they were in no way related, William Nelson's father was Mary
Catherine's step-father, and Mary Catherine's mother was William
Nelson's step-mother.
