You may have hit it! I have a photocopy of a card from the Ashe County Public Library which reads: "Surry Ct. Min.Durham

May 1796 - Ursly Durham to produce son, James at next court to be bound
out. 1793 - Ursilla Durham to bring her daughter Margaret and sons James Durham, George Durham and Thomas Humphrey to be bound out."

If he (Humphrey Durham) died in 1792, that's why she (Ursula) and not he was in court and perhaps also why the children were to be bound out.

By the way, I have some research I did from "Roster of the Continental Line from North Carolina 1783" included in the book State and Colonial Records for North Carolina, page 1047 which reads:
Durham, Humphy, pt.;Brevard's Company;Dates of Commissions & Enlistments-1781 (for Humphrey); period of service 12 mo.; left service 25 May 1782.
