Another post. Like I said not in any logical other. Would anyone like to give us a documented (or even best guess) version of the WilliamWilliams Durrence, WilliamWilliams Durrence and WilliamJames Durrence family groups??? Let's keep it to a simple three generations, please. Jmike Excerpt from July 1963 GGM WILLIAM DURRENCE, of Lowndes Co. Ga. Soldier in Indian War. Widow's Application for Bounty-land.
