The first time that I received this information was in 1997 from a relation, Winslow T. Shearman. He wrote, "Claude Davis was born about 1876. He died age 14 in Tidioute, Warren Co., PA." My second souce is the newspaper, Warren Ledger, which had his obit, stating that Claude P. Davis died at Tidioute, on 16 Sep tember 1890 aged 14 years..." Last night when I read your message I checked to see if I could still find that newspaper obit in the Warren Ledger from my souce on-line and found it. Now, this morning while I am writing this to you, I was going to save a copy of the obit and offer to send it to you but now I cannot find it which is really what you need to confirm it. I will try again later. The names John Ransom Davis & Pearl Nora Davis don't ring a bell, I am sorry to say. Neither does the Tenney surname in relation to the Davis family. Can you let me know how the connection to Claude Davis, the son of Clinton Davis and Cynthia Ann Shearman was established? I am curious now. - Ed Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
