I had noted a pension application in the Nashville office for an Elizabeth Davidson, widow of George, which ceased in 1844. I made notes on all the pensions for Davidsons out of that office as this is where Sarah Davidson had made claim as widow of Thomas Davidson. These records do not appear to state which wars those receiving payment were with and I note some appearing more likely RW services, others for 1812 or other. The list includes: Abraham, stop 1838 Elizabeth, widow of George, stop 1844 Elizabeth, widow of William Brown, stop 1860 (notes a transfer from the Pulaski office) James, stop 1856 John, stop 1846 Sarah, widow of Thomas, stop 1868 I had been suspecting that Elizabeth actually collected on RW service for George and note entry of a George Davidson in TN, serving out of SC. Pension noted as collected in Dickson, TN and 82 years of age in 1832. A volume documenting information from RW service out of pension records involving SC included the following entry: DAVIDSON, George (W283) born 1751 Albemarle VA died 4 Sept 1833 married Elizabeth _________ 20 Oct 1784 While residing in Craven (now Lancaster), he enlisted 1775 under Capt Robert Crawford and Col Joseph Kershaw....(documents service up through 1780)...He was in the battles at Rocking Mount, Cowpens, Camden, Eutaw Springs. Moved to VA and TN. The 1830 Dickson County entry for George Davidson includes a male 20-30, a male 70-80, a female 10-15, a female 60-70.
