Riley Richard Durham's first wife, Willie Florence Evans Durham Holley (my Grandmother) told me that Anna "Annie" Margaret Barber Durham was a very kind person and a nice lady. She was short, dark complected with black hair and dark eyes and she spoke with an accent. She may have had ancestors of Spanish/North American. Some of Anna's children called her by the nickname "Annie" and some called her by the nickname "Myra".
