For what it is worth, there is a James H. Davison b 3-8-1839, 1st son of Alexander Davison and Mary Ann Deskins. In one spot (copied from the Bible,) it says he married Rebecca Phillips on 10-30-1867. In another spot, it says he moved west to Iowa, and there was no further knowledge on the family. Not sure this fits with your family, but maybe for someone else.
