Hello John Y - nice to see your posting - don't think we have a connection though mate :)

James Durose @ marriage of John Cooley age 26 of 36 Moorsom Street &
Esther Griffiths age 20 of 16 Cowper Street (Both Streets off Summer Lane)

No idea yet if a Durban S A connection,, James is Only Durose i have,
Hope some linkage via Other Surnames triggers with you Colin m8 O0
 
we knew a Durose family,whom we visited in Durban,about 10 years ago.Their family have been going backwards and forwards between the UK and Durban/Natal for years.It started when a member of the family went out there in the Boers War,after the fighting he took the family over there,and settled.Different generations have done it 3 times about every 10 yearsThe family last returned to the UK about 8 years ago,but the husband & wife split up and he returned to Durban.
So,sorry no definite connection just a story to relate
