Ray, I thank you for your response on the Ouachita County site. I am a non professional genealogist who's plate is suddenly running over. I am also in contact with a newly discovered cousin, Bernie Alsup, in Roby Texas, who is also a Davis/Gandy descendant. I had only recently started to trace Thomas Culver Davis in Ouachita Co. AR, who I believe was a brother to my gg grandfather Nathan Davis Nathan Davis went from Laurens Co., SC to Lauderdale Co., AL and then to DeSoto Co. MS I have been "Stuck" in Lauderdale County, AL for years. Now I am discovering new cousins all over. I hope we can help each other. Thanks ! L&S, Bob Davis Vancouver, WA
