I have added comments and info in red--hope it shows up that way.  I descend from William and Mary Jane, so I am very certain about their info. Except I have not been able to absolutely prove that William's father was Crable.  I have LOTS of info on David's children.

Also see George W. Davidson at bottom of page. This could be Carroll Davison's George. NOT THE SAME GEORGE W. Laroice Descendants of David Davisson ? Generation No. 1 1. DAVID1 DAVISSON was born Abt. 1748 in Va. He married ELIZABETH COCHRAN. She was born 1755. Child of DAVID DAVISSON and ELIZABETH COCHRAN is: 2. i. THOMAS2 DAVIDSON, b. 1775, Va.-- might be David's child from a previous marriage or might be a relative's child.  Thomas was an "idiot"--there are many court records showing guardianship of Thomas being shared by his siblings & William/MaryJane Davison (probably a nephew). ? Generation No. 2 2. THOMAS2 DAVIDSON (DAVID1 DAVISSON) was born 1775 in Va.  Probably never had children--see the above note about the mental condition and court records.  These are the children of David and Elizabeth.  I have records on many of them Children of THOMAS DAVIDSON are: i. PHILEMON3 DAVIDSON, b. 1785; m. CATHERINE CLARKE. 3. ii. WILLIAM DAVIDSON, b. 1787.   ( I married this William to Celia Hardin) iii. MARY POLLY DAVIDSON, b. 1791; m. JOHN MILLER. iv. NANCY DAVIDSON, b. 1794; m. BARTLETT ANGEL BASHAM III. 4. v. CRABLE DAVIDSON, b. 1796, Ky. vi. REBECCA DAVIDSON, b. 1799; m. HIRAM MILLER. ? Generation No. 3 3. WILLIAM3 DAVIDSON (THOMAS2, DAVID1 DAVISSON) was born 1787. He married CELIA HARDIN 03 Jun 1809. Married 1810 Breckinridge Co, KY.  Children: Hardin Arelius, Caroline Meade, Letitia, Jane, William Hardin, Jehu Hardin, Nestor, Laura Enfield, possibly Winnifred.  I don't think the people listed below are this William/Celia's children.  Children of WILLIAM DAVIDSON and CELIA HARDIN are: i. JAMES4 DAVIDSON, b. 1811. ii. ROBERT DAVIDSON, b. 1817. iii. HANNAH DAVIDSON, b. 1825. ? 4. CRABLE3 DAVIDSON (THOMAS2, DAVID1 DAVISSON) was born 1796 in Ky. He married SOPHIA ?. She was born 1792 in Ky. Notes for CRABLE DAVIDSON: In 1850 Crable had 4 Children living with him Elizah, Jackson, Lucunda and Anselow. BUT: In 1840 Crable had 2 males age 15 but less than 20 living with them. One was Elizah and I submit the other one was William Davidson, born 1823 who is living next door to Crable in 1850. We agree.  Note also that Thomas Davidson, Crable's Father Thomas is his brother not his father is living with his son probably his nephew William which would make sense because Crable still had 4 children at home.Also in 1840 Crable had 1 Female age 80 but less than 90, his Mother? living with him. This is very likely his widowed mother.  But where was Thomas, his Father in 1840? NOT HIS FATHER--but Thomas HIS BROTHER is living with sister Nancy Basham as his guardian.  Children of CRABLE DAVIDSON and SOPHIA ? are: 5. i. WILLIAM4 DAVIDSON, b. 1823, Breckenridge, Ky. He married Mary Jane Taylor.  This is my line.  It has not been ABSOLUTELY PROVEN that William is the son of Crable but there is suggestive census and court record information.  WE NEED A "FOR SURE" DECENDENT OF CRABLE TO DO THE DNA TEST ii. ELIZAH DAVIDSON, b. 1827, Ky.  married Phebe Weedman ~1851.  She died 1854 in Grayson Co, KY.  They had a son, JAmes W, 1853-1854.  Elizah/Elijah married again to Margaret Peggy Malone 1861 in Grayson Co, KY.  They had daughter Palestine 1867.  iii. JACKSON DAVIDSON, b. 1828, Ky. He married Emily.  They had 3 children: Josephine, Maranda, and William H. iv. LUCUNDA DAVIDSON, b. 1831, Ky. Married Marryman A Morgan Jule 11 1862 at Wm Davidson's--my William Davison, child 1 of Crable. v. ANSELOW DAVIDSON, b. 1833, Ky. Married Theresa/Tricia/ and had 4 children: Nancy, Susan, Billy, Emily.  ? Generation No. 4 5. WILLIAM4 DAVIDSON (CRABLE3, THOMAS2, DAVID1 DAVISSON) was born 1823 in Breckenridge, Ky. He married MARY JANE TAYLOR. She was born 1830 in Ky.  I have lots of info on this family--it is my direct line Children of WILLIAM DAVIDSON and MARY TAYLOR are: i. ANDERSON5 DAVIDSON, b. 1849. ii. CASSY DAVIDSON, b. 1851. iii. SOPHIA DAVIDSON, b. 1852. JONATHAN R  born 1854 iv. WILLIAM PHILO DAVIDSON, b. 1855. v. JOSEPH DAVIDSON.  This is the son of William Philo vi. FLORENCE DAVIDSON.  This is the daughter of William Philo vii. LESLIE DAVIDSON.  This is the son of William Philo--THIS IS MY GRANDFATHER viii. ALTHEA DAVIDSON.  This is the daughter of William Philo ix. SARAH Palestine DAVIDSON, b. 1860. JOHN A. MORGAN DAVISON 1863 x. MARY Rosanna MOLLIE DAVIDSON, b. 1865. xi.
