I am interested in finding out more about mr. William Davidsen Durham (WDD) who was my great-great-grandfather. WDD was from South-Shields in Newcastle. He was a sailor and a chief mate on an english ship visiting the norwegian port of Farsund for naval repair, where he married my grand-grand-grandmother Pernille Jansdatter Mosvold in the year 1829. They got two children: Oline Bendicte and Henriette. Pernille moved to South-Shield for living, but when WDD disapeared at sea she had to return to Farsund in Norway with her two daughters. So my research interest is to find out more about mr. William Davidsen Durham from South-Shields. Regards, K.S. Tuster
