I have a William Davidson but born in Scotland in 1854. Think there could be a connection. My William didn't come over until about 1870ish. Barbara DAVIDSON Norkus

Joan I have not checked the Horn Papers but will try in the near future. It is probable that James did take an oath since he and his wife and at least sons Robert and William were born in Ulster.

Hi Joan, don't think we have a connection. My Robert was born in 1773 and William was born in 1806. These two were brothers, plus there were twelve other siblings. Chuck

Chuck, Was your Robert the son of James who Ted wrote about? Did your Robert have a brother William? There was also a Robert Davidson in Newark, Licking CO. OH. who was born in PA. and owned land in Licking CO. between 1816 &1858. His first wife was listed as ----Alexander & second wife Eliza Mathiot married 1816 in Connellsville, Fayett Co.PA. Is this the same person?

Hi Joan, I had a Robert Davidson that was born in Washington Co, PA. When grown, he moved to Brown Co, Ohio. Chuck

as i do periodically, i am again "casting my net upon the waters" in the hopes that someone out there has record of "henry francisco davidson" whose father was thomas davidson of washington county in. henry was born in 1851 and is my great grandfather. any help or suggestions? have joy in your work! allen "davidson" murray

This is my direct line so I will try and sort this out, William Davison from County Armagh Ireland, (father of John Davison/Davidson) wifes name was Elizabeth as stated in William's Davison will, John Davidson was married to Jane last name Unknow she married William Morrison after John Davidson died about 1749. but was always refered to as Mrs. Morrison William davison appears to have been a black smith. I will enclose William's will at the bottom of this and you can see he refers to his smithy shop in his will. John Davidson's son Maj. William Davidson was married to Margaret McConnell. You will also note there is no mention of a Samuel as being a son of William. Even tho John Davidson's went into court and made oath that he imported himself, Jane, George, Thomas, William. and Samuel Davison chart at that web site state that John Davidson was Appendix A - Notes 1. John DAVIDSON "Our Scotch Kith and Kin" p.38 John Davidson, elder brother of Samuel and George Davidson, born about 1720, removed to Virginia and then to Iredell, Rowan County, North Carolina. He was prominent and active in the Revolutionary War, being an officer in the military organization of North Carolina and a member of the Committee of Safety and Correspondence of Rowan County, North Carolina. This is not John Davidson from County Armagh Ireland. This is John Davidson son of Robert Davidson. I know that in the book Davidson/Davidson of Duck River printed in 1907 states that this is true, also that John Davidson was a singer of the Mecklenburg. Wrong John Davidson from Iredell County was the singer of The Mecklenburg I have the book Duck River Davison/Davidson that was printed in 1907 on the computer and if anybody would like a copy let me know and i will e-mail it to you Bob Robert Winslow Davidson WILL of WILLIAM DAVISON, COUNTY ARMAGH, NORTHERN IRELAND PUBLIC RECORDS OFFICE OF NORTHERN IRELAND (13 & 14 Geo.5.,ch20,sec (2) ) CERTIFIED COPY OF: A Record in the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland entitled---T 748, pg. 90, Will Of William Davison, Legacorry, Parish of Shankill, County Armagh.

The division between my two sons shall run: to my son GEORGE his part shall begin at the stony ditch to ALEX.

To my daughter ELIZABETH DAVISON 20pd. to be paid to her provided what money I was bound for with JOHN McCALL to the Rev. Dr. PENNEY is paid, then my said daughter to have 15pd.

GILPIN * Author's note: these are the initials of the certifier of the will, P. M. BOTTOMLY. It was undoubtedly he who put the brackets around the "2" in the date of the will, indicating the "double dating" system which applied up until 26 March 1752, resulting from the change of the calendar from Julian to Gregorian, and undoubtely he who misspelled the name DaviDson in the "Indorsement"---Robert S. Hand This transcription of the will was made from the book, DAVISON\DAVIDSON FAMILY The Descendants of William and Elizabeth Davison of County Armagh, Ireland by Robert Stephens Hand 1990 Note: The above author, (RSH now deceased) stated that he had a photograhic copy of this will provided by Misses Louise and Caroline Connor. Earlier documention of this family fails to mention the facts presented in this will. It is likely that research did not discover it's existence until 1975 when the certified copy was made. posum@vzinet.com wrote: > Robert Winslow & VaGreen100@aol.com...

Ted, In the PA Land Office warrants book I found a James Davidson with 400 acres in 1784. There was also a William, Samuel, and George with land at that time. Were they all brothers? There was also a James that took the Oath of Allegiance in 1794 in Cross Creek Twp. Where was his land located? Have you seen the "Horne Papers" map of Cross Creek? I read about a Davidson's Mill on the Youghiogheny River during Braddock's Campaign. There was a William and Samuel in Independance Twp. in 1790's to 1806. Do you know how they are all related? Did your Robert Davidson move to Ohio? Thanks for your help.

Joan: I have a Davidson family in Washington Co.. Pa. The James Davidson family were in Washington Co in the 1790s and 1800. In Cross Creek TWP. James had three son William, Robert, and James and daughters Lydia married? Alexander, Peggy married Robert Stuart, Mary married ? Junkin,Sally married Nathan Blane, Esther unmarried. Hope this is some help to you. Ted E. Davidson

In the book " The Tenmile Country and its Pioneer Families" Page 21, about the frontier rangers, it states: " Col. William Crawford was about to go on an expedition, however,an alarm in the vicinity of Wheeling Creek caused all the efficient men of the vicinity to be called off in that direction, and they took up the chase of the Indians who had killed the Davidson Family near Ryerson's Station." This was in 1782 Ryerson Station is in what is now Green Co.PA on Rt. 21 very close to the WV border. This used to be Wash. Co. Does anyone know the story about this family? Has anyone discovered that they were related to them? There were several Davidson familys in Wash CO.,PA and I am trying to sort them out. Thank you for any help. Joan

Do you have further information on son William?

Hello Everyone: Regarding the fraudulent lineages created by Gustave ANJOU, there were originally 109 families on the list. That number has increased to 305 families with more to be added over time. I suggest you look at the pages carefully as some of your lines may need reworking especially if you have traced them back to Europe. The URL to access the list is located at. http://www.linkline.com/personal/xymox/fraud/anjousbu.htm There are also other pages located within the Fraud Index located there that will be of help to you. Harold Oliver, Director, America's First Families, has done an excellent job bringing this Index to public attention. It is yet one more very helpful genealogy source. Have great days and peaceful nights! Shirley: bobert@panacom.com

I believe this information is correct, because of past records I have from years ago. This is a well documented family in Georgia. I, too, will be looking forward to any additional information people can give. Anna Gayle (Davidson) McClure
