I am trying to connect William Luther Durbin, b. 9 June 1895, Tangipahoa Parish (believe Independence) with his ancestors.All I know about him is this:
died 3 November 1977 (Hammond, Tangipahoa parish); buried Sandhill Cemetery
married early 1927 or late 1926 to Celestine E. Stevens.This was her second marriage.She could have been going by her married name, Fournier.There were no children of the marriage.
William Luther Durbin went by the name 'Billy'.Family rumor is that he was somehow related (distantly or by marriage) to the family of Celestine Stevens.That is not hard to believe.She comes from Stevens and Hoover lines that are well-represented in that southeastern section of Louisiana.
Thanks.I post this reply to the query on Skipwith because the locations and names are so similar.
