Notes:

  • It is interesting that Jacob and Catherine married in 1788, yet it appears that their youngest child was born in 1817, which is 29 years later. Just does not seem possible.

4. Mary DURHAM (b. 3 Oct 1805; d. 25 Mar 1873; Find-A-Grave 33567415, OH)

  • m1. Peter BLUE on 5 Jan 1832, PickCtyOH

  • m2. Mr. PENNIWELL

Child to Peter:

  1. Nancy BLUE (b. 23 Oct 1832, OH; d. 27 Mar 1897, Chicago, CookCtyIL; Find-A-Grave 101830975, IL)

 

Notes:

  • Nancy Blue was either Peter Blue's daughter, or she was illegitimate, and later took her step-fathers name. Also, the 1850 Census below also looks like Mary's name was "Mary Blue", rather than "Mary Blue Durham". Then Nancy would also be "Nancy Blue".

 

Notes:

  • John Durham (b. 1760, d. 1852) enlisted in 1777 as a private in the 10th North Carolina regiment. He was placed on the pension roll in 1840 in Brimfield County, Ohio. He was born in North Carolina and died in Ohio. 1   For his Soldier Grave Registrations, it lists that he was in the Army with the rank of "Musician".
