Linda, to search a cemetery, city, creek, branch, whatever - go to:
http://mapping.usgs.gov/www/gnis/gnisform.html
and go from there - I checked on the Durham Cemetery listings and there are
many! But the one listed in Kentucky was listed in Casey County. Go to
Casey County by using Rootsweb -
http://www.rootsweb.com/~websites/usgenweb.htm
and go to whatever state and then county and then look for volunteer look
ups from that county. and - if that county is not listed, look at
http://www.mit.edu:8001/geo to see what you might find - a neighboring
county - and they usually have links to them. Hope some of this helps! By
the way, we here in Tishomingo County Mississippi have Durham families but
I will need a little something more to go on. Are you on the Durham mailing
list?

Subject: the durham family
Hello
My name is Linda Joiner and my Family tree is loaded with Durhams. My
Grandfather Fred Durham born somewhere in Kentucky was a member of the
Mount
Olive Church, Mount Olive, Kentucky he was a native of Middleburg Kentucky
not
sure of his birth but he died at 52 in Indianapolis he lived there for 35
years so that means he was about seventeen when he went to Indiana. He
married
Bertha L. Heady Durham she was born in 1902 January 18th some where in
Kentucky as well and died april 3rd 1982 in Indiana. He had one sister that
I
know of Gladys Wright she married an Earl Wright. From the marriage of Fred
and Bertha there were six children Melvin, Carl, Harold, Raymond, Betty &
Lillian as far as I know most of them born in Indiana. Carl & Lillian &
Raymond have past away and the rest I have tried to contact some of them
but
no one really responds and the one Uncle I talk to don't remember to much.
But
what I do know is that the Durhams we are related to are in Kentucky very
wide
spread. Before my Uncle Ray died he went to Kentucky and talked to alot of
our
relatives. Would really like to find out about my family. My Mother died as
a
result of a rare blood disorder and would like to find out how that is past
on
in the family. I would hope you could give me some direction to go or pass
this on to others you run into. Also My Aunt told me that there was a road
named Durham and that there was a Cemetary as well named Durham but she
could
not recall where,but where ever this was she said alot of our family was
from
there. Any information would be gratly appreciated.
Thank you
