Good explanation, John. Thanks. Anna Gayle McClure (searching for Davidsons from PA, SC, and GA)

What more can you tell me about John Z. Davidson? I have both of those names in descendants of my ggggrandfather, John Davidson of PA>SC>GA. Thanks, Anna Gayle (Davidson) McClure

Hi, I am looking for the parents and other dates and places for James Davison who married Hannah Byrd, daughter of Francis Byrd James Davison died before May 4, 1821 James and Hannah Davison had 3 daughters Nancy who married John Zion Evaline who married John Barret Adaline who married Charles Willhelm It is know that James Davison and his brother in law owned undivided interest in land in Scott County, Virginia. The father of Hannah Davison died in Scott County, Virginia. Because James Davison owned land in Scott County, Virginia I know that he lived some of his adult life in that area. Any assistance in solving this brick wall will be greatly appreciated.

Hello L&L, There are certain similarities with Davidsons I am looking for although the first names are not familiar so the families may be totally unconnected. I am looking for a: Davidson who would have been in the army circa 1750. He would have had a daughter who married another Davidson in Nairn. John (born circa 1780), the son of this Davidson-Davidson couple, was in the Dumfries militia in Dalkeith circa 1810, next found in Kirkcaldy in Fife, where he was a bookseller and auctioneer. For some unknown reason, when very young he had changed his name from Davidson to McIntosh. This is not my family, but am researching them as they were engaged in (unfortunately unsuccessful) litigation for Macgillivray lands in 1850s. I would be very interested in knowing some more about your Davidsons. Thanks!

Adele, Yes, I am. I have some of this family on my web site: www.tqsi.com/davidson You will get a fairly good idea of the ancestors from that. I have some updates that I can send you off-list. But, you have several children more than I had. Could you please send details that you have for the descendants of this family? I would like to fill in the blanks. thanks, john.

And it might also be helpful to someone who is not on the list now. Did you know that ALL of the message of this list are archived and you can search them? That means that someone who is not on the list now (or even ever) can search through the messages and may find the clue for their brick wall.

There is nothing wrong with coming back every so often (but not too often) and asking again if anyone else is looking for your research line. Normally, Mary will call a Roll Call and that is a good time to do that. Another good time to do that is when you first join a list.

Not to be too picky, but since this is the Davidson list, can we be a little more specific as to which Davidsons? First name and/or county and state would be really helpful! Have a nice weekend everyone and hope you are having better weather than Michigan. Wet and rainy!
