Durin was a true dwarf, in all meanings of the word, short but sturdy, strong and with a great sense of duty and honor.

He lived with his kindred in the Ered Mithrin, and saw the takeover of Moria by Orcss, which had multiplied by then as a result of Sauron's growing presence in the Mirkwood.
He was the son of Gróin, the grandson of Borin, the younger son of King Náin II, and so could claim direct descent from Durin the Deathless himself.

The first King listed there, the penultimate King in Khazad-dûm, was Durin VI, so it follows that there must have been a Durin II, III, IV and V among the many unknown Kings (indeed we have some records of Durin III, who received a Ring of Power from Celebrimbor himself).
It was Durin VI who had the misfortune to rule Khazad-dûm at the time its miners discovered and released a sleeping menace deep among their mithril veins.
Durin was killed soon after its appearance, and succeeded by his son, Náin I.

 thror   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
Tolkien's fantasy universe of Middle-earth, Thrór (2542 TA-2790 TA), was a Dwarf, the son of Dáin I and the father of Thráin II and brother to Frór and Grór.
He died at Moria in an attempt to reclaim it, when he was killed by Azog the Goblin, which started the War of the Dwarves and Orcs.
Thrór was the first King of Durin's folk who lived in exile: after a cold-drake had killed Dáin I and Frór, only a part of Durin's folk joined him in the mines of Erebor, the greater part moving to the Iron Hills under Grór.

Hypothesis: it is stated that when Alue (sp?) put the first dwarves to sleep until the Child- ren of Illuvatar were to awake in caverns widely spaces; perhaps the other six's sleeping places were away east and south, beyond the ken of the stories.
I have, in particular, wondered whether Mim and the dwarves who killed Thingol were of the house of Durin, or whether they were from the other dwarven houses.
While it is not explicitly stated, I had assumed that the dwarves who fought for Sauron were not of the house of Durin, as these seemed a bit too refined and decent to fight for evil.
