Well Jean.. you answered one question that I had about Sarah Jane married to William Elgin Davis.She was a Lawrence.Do you have the first name of his mother Martha, who was married to Thomas Davis? And also do you know if this Davis family was related to Jefferson Davis?

He married Ella Morris born in 1898, probably in Caldwell County, (But, I'm not sure about that either. Ella had two sisters, Thula and Pearl. They were the children of Thomas Copeland Morris and Sarah Frances Eli. 2. William Davis born about 1832 married Rebecca Elizabeth Franklin. She was born about 1836 in Kentucky, daughter of Jerimaiah and Elizabeth Jackson Franklin. Her parents both died in Hopkins County. 3. William Davis born about 1870, married Fredonia Fowler born in 1874, daughter of James Edward Fowler and Sarah P. T. Young. James died in Christian County. 4. William H. Davis born abouta 1850 married Delila Beshears born about 1856, daughter of Henry and Dorcus Parker Beshears. 5. William L. Davis born 1823 Hopkins County, married Rosey Jane Timmons born 1827 Hopkins County, daughter of Feilding and Mary Dumville Timmons. William P.

I don't know if this will prove to be anything, but I remember an old man, living on Wickliffe St., named Tom Davis. He had two sons living there, too, named Ralph, and G.W. I'm not sure of any women, though there seemed to be a couple of them there, too. Also, I think I remember Ralph getting married in 1961 or 1962, but I may be wrong. He was talking about it around that time, as I recall. I'm not sure when old Tom died, but I knew them around 1958-63, or thereabouts, and he had to be at least in his late-60's or early 70's at that time. I used to run with Tom's grandson, Bobby Daniels, who visited during the summers from Indiana. I think he lived in Washington, Ind., but I'm not too sure, after all these years. Anyway, he fell in with the rest of us, and we would go camping, or just hang around. I hope this sheds some light on the subject.

Hello, all you DAVIS researchers. My DAVIS line is one of my major "brick walls". Tradition has it that my Nancy DAVIS was born in Halifax County, Virginia, in January 1824. She married Josiah Dobbs in Logan County KY Dec. 7, 1837, and their first child, James Calvin was born in 1840 somewhere in Tennessee. Nancy and Josiah moved to Muhlenberg County and had a very large family, fifteen children in all, most of whom Nancy outlived. Josiah died in 1880 and Nancy DAVIS Dobbs died in Muhlenberg County after 1900. Does anyone know who her parents might be? Please give me a clue and make my day!! Thank you for any suggestion you might have. Jean C.

Diane: Sorry, I have not seen a Peter Kincheloe. Do you have any information on who his parents were and years? I have run into a book called "A Historyof Muhlenberg County." It is written by Otto A Rothert. It is on Heritage Quest at the genealogy libraries. Great book on the early times of the County.

My great-grandmother, Agnes May Abercrombie was a sister to William. I have a little information on Myrtle, though not a lot. Feel free to contact me for what I do have. Are you by chance related to Billie, who is now deceased and whose mother was Myrtle? Thelma My great Grand mother was the daughter of Alexander Holeman and Nancy "?". I'm not sure if they are related to Myrtle. She was born 1861 in Jackson Tennessee. Beverly
