I feel sorry for Durin I. How many generations of his family did he watch grow and die before he himself eventually died. It must have been tough to be an almost immortal living with mortals. Unless he waited till just before he died to have children or dwarven lifespans were longer in the elder days I would not have chosen to be Durin the Deathless.

Durin does appear to have married late, even for a dwarf since the only available candidates for him to marry would have been the daughter of one of the other six fathers.
Still, its quite likely he did outlive several generations of his descendants.
