Samuel listed Seneca County, NY as his place of birth when he enlisted and he was most likely the same Samuel Duram living/attending school in Waterloo, NY in 1850 (age fits), which places him as the probable son of Joseph with whom he was residing. <br /><br />While Findagrave listings can often be of dubious reliability, it was noted in the listing that the source was a genealogical company, New Horizons, thus raising the credibility of the assumption reported online.Steve Soperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10805054068549522404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37598678.post-57520993429400455192017-07-12T23:18:14.171-04:002017-07-12T23:18:14.171-04:00Hi Steve!

Really enjoy visiting!<br /><br />Were you able to Verify the Parents of Samuel W. Duram? Are his Parents, Joseph W.
