I do not have information for Weddle, but am seeking further information for Fannie and Frances Durham. My information indicates Fannie Bell Durham; born 2 Nov 1887 Jackson County, died Feb 1977 Jackson County married James Henry Lawson on 15 May 1911 Jackson County. James Henry was grandson of John and Nancy Durham Lawson married about 1849 KY. Nancy died before 1870 in Jackson County. Frances Durham, born 9 Sep 1890 died 1981 married John L Durham, born 21 Jan 1889 died 15 May 1915 Jackson County. John L Durham was son of John Hardin Durham, born 18 Jan 1842 IN, died ??? (was in 1910 Jackson County Census) + Eliza Ellen Trueblood, born Jul 1858 IN, died 27 Jul 1920. Eliza Ellen Trueblood was John Hardin Durham’s second marriage. John Hardin Durham was son of Joseph Durham, born 1818 Madison County KY, died 1874 Rockcastle County, KY + Unknown.( born KY as noted in John Hardin’s census listing). I have nothing in my to indicate the ancestors!
of Fannie and Frances Durham, although I have seen speculation they were daughters of a John Harden Durham that died 1942 at age 81 in Jackson County and is buried in Lanning Spur Cemetery. I know nothing of such a John Harden Durham. The John Hardin Durham born 1842 appears to get the Hardin middle name from his grandmother’s last name.
