I believe that my Davison line (kit 22233) comes from David thru his son Crable.  And my line and Carroll/Laroice's line are definitely related.  I think kit 78574 is part of family 4.  I have found a living male descendent of David>Crable.  I am hoping that he will do the DNA test.  Diana --- On Tue, 1/12/10, Laroice Davidson <davidsonl001@hawaii.rr.com> wrote: From: Laroice Davidson <davidsonl001@hawaii.rr.com> Subject: Re: [DAVIDSON] William Davidson To: "Bill Davidson" <tunnelm@verizon.net>, davidson@rootsweb.com Date: Tuesday, January 12, 2010, 4:17 PM Hi Bill, So do you think that kit number 78574 in family 4 should be in family 7?

Amy, It now APPEARS that James Davidson and Mary Bean of PA (whose descendants apparently married into the Selvage family on more than one occasion) were part of "Family 4," but I don't know if any DNA donor in "Family 4" has really proven his "connection" back to James and Mary (Bean) Davidson "beyond a shadow of a doubt." From just a quick look, I do not see where ANY of the existing male Davidson/Davison DNA donors in "Family 4" currently claim the James and Hannah Davidson of Jefferson Co., TN as ancestors. The same can also be said for James Davidson and Mary Bean. I have not attempted to see if there is any "conventional documentation" that would prove a connection between the James Davidson in Jefferson Co., TN and the families of any of the current DNA donors in "Family 4" (but maybe you have such documentation). Some members of "Family 4" trace back to the David and Elizabeth (Unknown) Davison who had Philemon Davison in PA in 1785. I have never seen a "proven connection" between that David Davison and the above James and Mary (Bean) Davidson family (though both were in PA). Others in "Family 4" trace back to the John Davidson who came to the Pittsylvania/Halifax Co., VA area in the 1700s from NC. I have never seen a "proven connection" between that John Davidson and either of the above two Davidson/Davison families.....but DNA seems to be showing that all three were somehow "blood related." Bill

Just a note about David and Elizabeth from family 4.  They must have been in PA earlier than 1785 (birth of Philemon) because they had a son (?), Thomas, born in PA in 1775-76 according to Thomas' KY death record.  Don't know if this helps anyone or not.  Diana --- On Tue, 1/26/10, Bill Davidson <tunnelm@verizon.net> wrote: From: Bill Davidson <tunnelm@verizon.net> Subject: Re: [DAVIDSON] Davidson miscellaneous To: davidson@rootsweb.com Date: Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 8:07 AM Amy, It now APPEARS that James Davidson and Mary Bean of PA (whose descendants apparently married into the Selvage family on more than one occasion) were part of "Family 4," but I don't know if any DNA donor in "Family 4" has really proven his "connection" back to James and Mary (Bean) Davidson "beyond a shadow of a doubt."  From just a quick look, I do not see where ANY of the existing male Davidson/Davison DNA donors in "Family 4" currently claim the James and Hannah Davidson of Jefferson Co., TN as ancestors.  The same can also be said for James Davidson and Mary Bean.  I have not attempted to see if there is any "conventional documentation" that would prove a connection between the James Davidson in Jefferson Co., TN and the families of any of the current DNA donors in "Family 4" (but maybe you have such documentation).

Amy and Laroice, I assume that the older of "your" two William Davidsons was the one who married Hanna Oaks on 16 Jan 1804 in Grainger Co., TN. It is interesting to note that your DNA "Family 4," as well as DNA "Family 7" and DNA "Family 10," all had members in Grainger around that time. Bill Davidson

Yes, the elder William Davidson, son of James and Hannah, married Hanna Oaks. Probably all of these Davidson's were connected.

The connection between these Davidson/Davison's could be nothing more than what was being offered by a newly opened area at the time when they all arrived. I know families from all over flocked to Oklahoma when it was opened for the free land rush...People look for greener areas all the time.

Laroice - the reason that Jacob and William Davidson in the 1830 Hardin Co, TN census are not brothers is because their birthdays do not fit. If you remember, Jacob Davidson signed William Davidson and Eleanor Selvidge's marriage bond in Jefferson CO, TN in 1819 with an X while William signed his name. Additionally, when Eleanor and Sarah Selvidge Davidson's father, Jeremiah Selvidge, died in Roane Co, TN in 1827, William and Jacob Davidson signed the receipt for their wives share of his estate which was $10 each. William signed his name for Eleanor's share and Jacob signed Sarah's receipt with an X. So all along, this is the same Jacob Davidson who went to Hardin CO, TN with William. (They were living next to each other in the 1830 Hardin Co, TN census). Who was this Jacob? Was he the son of James and Hannah. That Jacob's birth date was 26 Mar 1790 by Quaker records and is a little off with the 1850 census record of Jacob, but sometimes those dates are not exact as we would like. William, the son of James and Hannah Davidson's birth date was 27 Sep 1783. The William Davidson that married Eleanor Selvidge's birthday was 26 Jan 1801. This William Davidson that was with Jacob in Hardin Co, TN left Hardin Co, TN after the death of his wife, Eleanor, in 1848 and was in DeSoto Co, MS in the 1850 census along with his children, (some of whom were married by then) and in Memphis, TN in the 1860 census. He died in Memphis, TN in 1880. He probably moved there to be near his daughter, Jane Davidson Selvidge (married a Jeremiah Selvidge) to help him care for her younger siblings. I thought that it had already been established that George I Davidson was the son of Jacob Davidson, just can't remember how. Both Eleanor and Sarah Selvidge Davidson (died before the 1840 census) named sons Jeremiah after their father, Jeremiah Selvidge, - thus following the naming patterns of that time. They usually named the first born son after the mother's father and that was the case of Eleanor, whose first born son was named Jeremiah - however, he died shortly after birth. So it would seem, based on your information, that you are a direct descendent of this Jacob Davidson. - Amy Windsor -----Original Message----- From: davidson-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:davidson-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Laroice Davidson Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 1:17 PM To: davidson@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [DAVIDSON] Davidson miscellaneous Hi, I don't think we'll ever know for sure which William this is.

If it is then is he also son of Jacob Davidson? Carroll Davison and I both believe that George W. Davidson son of George I. Davidson is Carroll's GG Grandfather. If so it would indicate more inter-marrying in the Davidson line as Carroll and I are closely linked by DNA in family 4.

But I have Rebecca's death certificate and she is clearly daughter of George I. Davidson, not a Davis. Could she have just made a mistake or was it an attempt to hide inter-marrying?? In Shiloh cemetery there is a George I. Davis - occupation Blacksmith buried there. G. I. Davidson died in the Civil war. One more item: William Davidson, son of James and Hannah of Jefferson County, TN., had a brother named Jacob. I have long believed Jacob and William in Hardin County were brothers.

Searching for parents of: Alexander Davidson born 19 Apr 1791 in NC and died 5 Oct 1848, buried in Old Brick Church Cem in Colbert Co Al. It was Franklin Co in 1848. This is what I think: he married Margaret Kinney in Bedford Co TN. They are mentioned in several property deeds. I believe her to be the daughter of Daniel and Elizabeth Kinney. They moved to AL before 1848. Margaret is in the house of Clayton Davidson in 1850 Franklin Co AL. also her other children. Clayton was born 1827. In 1860 Clayton Davidson and wife Elmira are in McNairy Co TN. His mother Margaret is in Arkansas Co AR with her other children: Jackson born 1818 in TN., Jenneta Davidson born 1826 T., Alexch Davidson born 1830 in TN., Sarah Davidson born 1838 TN., A son Milus Davidson married Ann Suffrona Carpenter and they were in the same area as Clayton in 1850 in AL. Also he is in Arkansas Co AR in 1860 in the same area as his mother and siblings. Can anyone prove or disprove all this? I really need some parents for him. Any help will appreciated.

Just sitting here reading some old notes from 1992 and 93. Jacob Davidson, "Hardin County, Tn Book "F" 5 April 1862 - Releasements and insolvencies for the Tax year 1851". (Means he either was released from taxes or did not pay them)?? County Court Minutes, Hardin Co.,Record book D, page 86, sept 2, 1844. Ordered by the Court that James Davidson be appointed overseer of the road in room (place) of Alexander S. Hardin. Record Book D, page 113 March 3 1845. Ordered by the Court that Jacob Davidson be appointed overseer of the road leading from Carrollsville from Indian Creek to James Watsons and to have the following hands. Several named including William Davidson. Record Book D, page 181 March 2, 1846. George Davidson appointed overseer of the road in place of James Davidson. Hardin County Deed Book G, page 317: For love and affection for his son Jeremiah Davidson, Jacob Davidson gives land - 23 acres and another tract of 50 acres 1 Nov 1845. Signed by his Mark X (Jacob Davidson) 1833 Hardin County census of males 21 years of age, taken for voting purposes?? List s Jacob Davidson, Robert Davidson and Joseph Davidson having consecutive census number meaning living close or in same household. Anyway that's what I get from these old notes. Maybe someone can use them. Laroice

I believe the one showing Mary Flowers and Texas is correct. My grandfater was born in Denison, TX in 1895. Thanks again.

Just click on the appropriate ""Join"" tab/link on the above website, and that will take you over to the ""order screen"" on the FTDNA website (just follow the directions therein). I highly recommend the 37 marker test, since doing fewer markers can potentially lead to ""false positives."" The test involves ""gently scraping"" the inside of each cheek (using the little tool provided by FTDNA) and then sending the samples to FTDNA is a couple of little vials that they will also supply. In 5-8 weeks, you should get some results. Once your samples are back at FTDNA, will add your kit number to the above-referenced website in the ""pending"" section under Group Results. If you are a match or close match to another ""numbered family,"" we will moved your kit number into that family in Family Results section. You will also be given instructions on how to add your direct line lineage/pedigree to the referenced website. By the way, I am not sure if Dave ordered his kit or not. Comments/questions?
