	3. William Lindsey DURHAM III (b. 3 Feb 1811, ChatCtyNC; d. 21 Aug 1898, TyleCtyTX) m. Mary MOORE 13 Feb 1845, WinsCtyMS Children:   1. Elizabeth J. DURHAM (b. c. 1846, MS) m. Monroe PLATT   2.

MARSHALL   Notes: Confusing my search for this William Lindsey Durham were three factors: There is a Lindsay Durham who married Sylvia Shaw on Aug 2, 1836 in OranCtyNC. He was born c. 1815 in NC. In 1850, he lived in AlamCtyNC with Silvay (age 42), and children: William (age 11), John (age 9), Isaac (age 7), and Margaret (age 4). In 1870, he still resided in Alamance Co, with Sylvia (age 63) and children: William (age 31), Robert (Isaac R., age 27), Mary (Margaret, age 14), William (age 11) and Joseph (age 1). To date, no researcher has found the name of Lindsay's father.  In 1880, a Lindsey Durham shows up in Bingham, OranCtyNC. He was born c. 1815. His spouse is show as Mary Durham, born 1817, NC. Is this William Lindsey and Mary Durham above? I don't think so, because W. L. Durham was buried in TyleCtyTX. I did find a marriage entry for this couple. It states that Lindsey Durham, b. 1814, age 60 married Mary LINSEY, b. 1815, in OranCtyNC. Finally, on two census records, his middle initial is clearly not shown to be indicated to be "L". The 1850 Census shows him as "W. S. Durham". The 1870 Census shows him as "W. E. Durham" (the scans for both clearly show "S" in 1850 and "E" in 1870). I feel it is the same person because both are married to Mary born in Alabama, plus the children match.
