Sharon, Evidently I was either sleeping or hit the delete button accidentally when you posted about your family migrating from Vermont.I just saw it in the subject line of another post. My Davis side migrated from Vermont between 1815 and 1833. I always thought they traveled by way of the Ohio River, then A few years ago someone told me they probably traveled down through New England, across Ohio and down through the canals. They settled in Huntington Township, Gallia County and just across the border in Vinton County. I think maybe some of their relatives settled in Athens County also, but I am not sure. What timeframe did your family travel? Mary Lee Davis Marchi One stumble is enough to deface the character of an honorable life.
