Julia Sweat and Stephen Miller adopted both her and Jetty, as Julia was unable to have a natural child. Fannie is found with them in the 1880 census as Francis Davis and was claimed to be a niece. I have not been able to find the Davis connection to either the Millers or the Sweats.At the time, there were no legalities regarding adoption of children and therefore no records are found. I have an extensive Sweat file but do not find a Fannie Mae Sweat. Who was her father ? Please write jvanh67770@aol.com
