John H. B. DURHAM was born about 1845 in Kentucky.1,8,10 John H. B. Durham, age 35, is listed as a "boarder" in the household of John W. Renfro, and wife Susannah C., in the 1880 Census for Hart County, Kentucky. John H. B. Durham is listed as "single" and a "school teacher".

George H. B. Durham, age 35, is listed as "son" in the household of Berryman H. Durham and wife Elizabeth (Renfro). George is listed as "single" and a "teacher". "George" did not appear with this family in earlier censuses, but instead was listed as "John". I believe that John H. B. Durham and George H. B. Durham are possibly the same person. More research is needed.
