Biography

Mary Margaret was born about 1722, the daughter of Cornelius Poulson and Anne Empson, and passed away about 1800.
Note: The information in Durbin and Logsdon Geneology pg 61 has Mary born 1755, and married 1746. For purposes of completing the profile, I am assuming it to be a typo, and will use 'about 1725 as a birth date....
'William Durbin, the first son of Samuel Durbin (-1752) and Ann (Logsdon) Durbin (-1770) was born 4 Jan. 1726 [registered in St. Paul's Church, Baltimore, p. 57), d. ca 1773 in Maryland; m.
