Mary When you say points west, does that mean Ohio and Iowa. I'm still trying to find my Andrew J Davidson's father. I know he was born in Virginia and married Clarinda Barnes Mix in Ohio where they had at least two sons, Brooks and Amos before moving to Iowa. Amos is my GG grandfather. One more question...Has anybody done a history of the Davidson's in America. When did the first one arrive and how. Just curious. Dick Davidson David6996@aol.com
