Note - after rechecking sources, I can't find that Daniel Durr ever used 'F'
as a middle initial. Only source of that is Dr. Meiser, but not notes suggest
that this is definite. Not in censusor church records. (deeds?). I'm inclined
to dismiss it. - 7/1/05

note - there was some confusion in filling out Susannah's death certificate. The
entry for fatherhad __y_r (it looks like the leading letter would not have been an 'M'
like the one written below), which was erased, and then Dree written on top.
(although even the leading 'D' is hard to read, only the _ree is clear). Clearly, this
should have been Derr and Boyer.
