Well said, Henry spelled his name Davison(at least the clerk did) but Gideon spelled his name Davidson. My great grand- fathers 1st cousin stated similar facts: Davison was the English spelling and Davidson was Scottish. I would really like to know the truth about the Scott Co Davidsons. All I know is that my Dad and his sisters were selective as to WHO they called "Kith & Kin"! I wish that I could call them back and record their emotion and then I might understand their passion. What do you think about genetic memory? I loved peach brandy but never understood why until I found where Grandpa Gideon was arrested for making peach brandy in Scott Co.! Anybody have a similar story?Phil
