    3. Amy, Yes....A branch of the Davidson family out of Goochland (1740s), Cumberland (1749-1759), Albemarle (1759-1761) and then Buckingham (1761 and beyond) moved to Henry Co., VA, with some members of that branch moving to Stokes Co., NC (across the state line). The 1790 census for Stokes shows a David, John and Richard Davi(d)son there, as I recall, and in 1795, David Davidson's daughter Levinia Davidson married a William Willis up in Patrick Co., VA (which had been created from Henry Co., VA in 1791 or so). Goulder Davidson from this family (married a Sarah Unknown; Goulder was APPARENTLY a brother of David, Richard, John and a William Davidson, Junior) in Henry and later Patrick Co., VA moved to Grainger Co., TN by 1804/1805, and he had a known son named Joshua Davidson (who married Elizabeth Sharp). Goulder and Joshua (and maybe others in the family) moved to Alabama by about 1818. I do not know, however, if "your" Jacob Davidson in Grainger was DEFINITELY part of the this overall Davidson family, as I do not know if ALL of the Davidsons in Grainger at that time were related.
