Hello, I am not a Durrett nor a researcher of the family. My line is Howard, in Parker county a Howard married a Durrett and they were killed by Indians . This I found in an old Parker county genealogical mag. I have someplace the article . It mentions Larkin Durrett who married the only surviving child. In Mar 99 I posted a query to both the Howard and Durrett forums ..this is what I posted. searching for James John and Elizabeth Howard. One of their daughters Louisa Howard born Dec 1837 married Edward M Rippy/Rippey/Ripley ...They were killed in an Indian attack in Parker county TX ca 1870.A daughter of the Rippy's Lizzie married Larkin Durrett born ca 1820 KY.. I am trying to tie these Howard's to mine from GA>AL to TX in the 1840's ...Thanks, Pat Perhaps someone in Parker county has the article handy to send If not, I will search for mine. Let me know , please.. Pat in OK
