ResearchFrom Bernice Gunderson of the Society of Genealogy of Durkee, Durkee Family Newsletter, Vol. 8, #4, Winter 1989:
As discovered by Don Stone, William Walter Durkee was living in Kellogg, ID, when he was married to Marcia Parlin, divorced wife of Joseph N. Thornburn (Thornbrue), on Sept. 2, 1896. Marcia had a four year old daughter, Lillian, who seems to have been accepted by Walter as his own. Marcia and Walter had three children together: Howard Liffler, born Jan 30, 1899, Ina M., born April 25, 1902 and Carol Bert, born Sept. 20, 1904.
This marriage ended in divorce in 1908. Marcia and the children moved to Seattle. Both Marcia and Lillian worked to support the family. Howard was killed in an auto accident in Everett, WA, on July 26, 1917. Ina was a promising violinist and played with the symphony in Seattle.
Marcia married James H. Douglas Nov. 29, 1913 in Seattle, but the marriage was a short one. After only one year, Marcia returned to the use of the Durkee name.
About 1928 Marcia and her family moved to Los Angeles, CA. She died ther April 4, 1929. This information was given by Lillian Meyers.
Son Carol was a postal worker in Los Angeles, CA.
Marcia's second husband, Walter Durkee remarried in Plains, MT. He died Aug. 8, 1951 and is buried in Kellogg, ID.

Notes for JOSEPH NEWTON "NEWT" THORNBRUE:
1920 Cloverland, Asotin, WA Census: Joseph is living with children Carl, 15, and Viola, 11 and a housekeeper. He is listed as widowed. However, on the 1920 King Co., WA census, we find his former wife, Marcia Parlin Thornbrue Durkee, living with Joseph and Marcia's daughter, Lillian. Therefore, he must be widower of second wife, Josie Dixon.
