About Archibald Marion Durham

Archibald Durham Bible History -Copied from Family Bible posted on http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~clearcreek/bible_...

John Jolly was the marriage bondsman for the marriage of Archibald Durham and Peggy Stroud on 29 Mar 1803.

The 1830 Orange County, North Carolina census listed Archibald Durham age 40 to 50 and wife age 30 to 40. There were 4 males listed, 1 age 20 to 30, 1 age 10 to 15, 1 age 5 to 10, and 1 age 0 to 5. There were 4 females listed, 1 age 20 to 30, 1 age 10 to 15 and 2 age 5 to 10.

Josiah Durham was listed on next entry. He was age 20 to 30 and wife also age 20 to 30 with 1 female age 10 to 15. Was he a son or just a relative?

A handwritten copy of the Archibald Durham family records provided all of the marriage, birth and death dates shown for this family and are portrayed as accurately as possible.

The tombstone gave death date 17 January 1840 at age 60, I have before me handwritten papers that may have been copied from an old Bible since the hand writing is rather uniform. The script is as I read it and there may be minor errors made in reading but will do my best.

All entries are for the Archibald Durham Family of Orange County, North Carolina. Archibald was born about 1782 in Orange County and was the son of William Lindsey Durham and wife Anne Cate.

Archibald first married Margaret (Peggy) Stroud, daughter of John Stroud and Delilah Bryant on 31 March 1803 in Orange County, NC. Margaret was born 16 April 1787 in Orange County, and died 12 July 1813.

Archibald then took as his second wife Jane Carruthers (also spelled Careathers) on 1 February 1816 in Orange County.

Jane was born 1 June 1804 and died 15 January 1867. I have the children and their descendants but will not list them here.
