Notes

Microfilm made of two donations of typescript (48 leaves, 14 leaves) from Fred Alfred Durling, Beaufort, South Carolina.

Jan Gerritse Dorlant/Durling (1627-1711) and his brother, Lambert Janse Dorlandt/Dorlan/Darling, immigrated from The Netherlands to New Netherland in 1652/1653. They settled in Brooklyn and later moved to Staten Island, New York. Fred Brundage Durling (1856-1906), a direct descendant in the eleventh generation, immigrated from Ithaca, New York to Panama City, Panama in 1883, though he remained a U.S. citizen registered at the American Consulate General. He married Josefa Eleodora Ardila, daughter of a prominent leader in Panama's separatist movement from Colombia. The author, a grandson of Fred Brundage Durling and a son of Walter Durling, joined the U.S. Foreign Service, and served in the American Consulate General between 1927 and 1966. He married Matilde Emelina Rohrmoser in 1927, and served in Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Spain, and Washington, D.C., before retiring to South Carolina. Descendants and relatives lived in New Jersey, New York, Virginia, Washington, D.C., South Carolina, Florida, Louisiana, Colombia, Panama and elsewhere.
