Notes:

  • The story of Rebecca Tanner Brantley Durham, and her first family with Dr. W. R Brantley, is heartbreaking. During a three year period during the US Civil War, she lost her husband and four children. Her three sons, James, William, Archibald, died as a result of the war. Her husband, a doctor, went to treat them and soon became ill and died. In 1864 her daughter, Margaret also died.
