This John Davidson was married to a Mary, and it is believed that she was Mary Allison, a daughter of a Robert Allison. Could that have been the same John Allison that you seek? If you research Chalkley, you can find some entries for the above Robert Allison (and maybe for some other Allisons, as well). I do not know how/if John Allison was related to Robert Allison, but I would be mildly surprised if they were not closely related (maybe grandfather/grandson). http://www.rootsweb.com/~chalkley/index.htm
