Posted on: Wilkes Co. Ga Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Ga/Wilkes/10829 Surname: Davis ------------------------- My GGGG Grandfather Col. William Davis moved from Virginia, to Wilkes County after the revolution - before 1800. He had a son, Charles Davis who moved with him, and my record only shows that Charles married and had two children who were likely born in Wilkes County. Charles was born in 1788 in Mecklenburg County, VA. Other of William's children were Edward B.,born cira 1770 and William, cira 1772. I do not know if these two moved to GA. The others, given their ages, would have been residents of Wilkes County: James Grissom Davis,1775; Elizabeth Davis, 1776; Lucy Davis, 1784; Samuel Davis, 1785; Joshua Davis 1786; Lewis Lanier Davis, 1787; Michaja Washington Davis, 1794; and Baxter Boswell Davis, 1797. I would like to hear from/about descendants of any of the above. I have some information about Col. William Davis and his connection to the Lanier family of Virginia.
