    3. Is this your man? I found lots on Hezekiah and little on Llewellyn but if the notes on findagrave are right his father was not the same as Hezekiah. Doesn't mean they aren't cousins.

MATRONS OF THE REVOLUTION. ANNE SCHENCK DAVIES. Anne Schenck was born March 19, 1763, on Long Island. She was the daughter of Nicholas Schenck (1732-1810), and his wife, Wilhelmje Wyckoff. The Schencks, it is said, could trace their ancestors back to the time of Charlemagne, in the eighth century. They were a very prominent family in the early days of the settlement of Long Island. Anne Schenck was married October 29, 1780, at Flatlands, L. I., Kings county, by the Rev. Vansinder, to Hezekiah Davies. She was a young lady of good education, and a patriotic lover of her country. It has been stated in some of the histories that the Schencks were Tories. This was not correct. So far as regards Anne's parents they were patriots, devoted to their country's cause. It may be well, perhaps, to refer to her husband's services in the War of the Revolution.
