She can be interpreted as named in her father David Desmond Spearman Sr 's will:

• South Carolina, Wills and Probate Records, 1670-1980, South Carolina. Court of Ordinary (Anderson District); page 659 - Will of David Spearman, written 3 Nov 1877, proved Sept 1878] After payment of my death and funeral expenses, I give to my wife Nancy Spearman [all of my estate] and after her decease I give the same to my children [or their heirs, to be divided equally]: Susan Corbin, Levi Spearman, Sarah Adcock, James Spearman, Mary J. Moore, heir of Edmund Spearman decd, Jeremiah Spearman, heir of David D. Spearman Jr decd, Nancy Durham... ^[1]

But because the name appears after the phrase "heir of David D. Spearman Jr decd," this is unclear.

She appears to have married a Jesse A. Durham.

She passed away 1900

Nancy was born in 1841. He passed away in 1900.^[2]
