They left after their daughter was born in May 1845 and showed up in Indiana in July 1847 for the birth of their son. A descendant got a story from her grandfather that our Moses Davison (1804-1880) took his wife (Elizabeth Moss) & 9 children on a flatboat down the Ohio River and into Indiana. We've currently matched DNA to a Davison line out of Bullitt Co., KY and so we do believe that this story is true. I would appreciate hearing from any/all Davison & Davidson researchers to see if we can't pinpoint where along the trip we lost the father of Moses. He is possibly Samuel, born c1774 and he sold land in 1825 (Fayette Co., PA) with his wife Mary...and was alive on the census in PA in 1830 for Washington Co., PA. Please touch base with me to compare data. Thank you. Sandymento@comcast.net Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
