Subject: Davis family I am trying to locate the parents of my great great grandmother Frances Evaline Davis. She was disowned my her family after her marriage to Thomas G. Britt. I recently made a query on the Davis message board of Rootsweb and received the following info. This is the best lead I have had since beginning my search... 1860 Census, Hancock Co., TN Household 191 Joshua Davis, 30, M, Farming, 2500, 200, TN Nelly, 21, F, Housekeeping, TN Sarah, 7, F, TN Wiley, 5, M, TN Mary, 3, F, TN Infant, 2/12, F, TN 1870 Census, District 7, Hancock Co., TN Household 36 Davis, Joshua, 40, M, W, Farmer, 6000, 2500, TN Ellander, 33, F, W, Keeping House, TN Sarah, 17, F, W, At home, TN Wyley, 15, M, W, Work on farm, TN Mary F, 13, F, W, At home, TN Eveline, 11, F, W, At home, TN Joseph, 9, M, W, At home, TN Lewis, 3, M, W, At home, TN Hillery, 1, F, W, At home, TN Strong probability that Francis Evaline is the Infant in 1860 and is Eveline in 1870. After finding this census data, I also did a search in Google on "Joshua Davis" Hancock Tennessee and got several hits including some that shows Joshua's dob as 12-Aug-1829 and identifies Nellie as Nellie Brewer. Hope this helps. I am hoping someone might have some information on this family are can advise me about my search. Thank you, Kay Rodell
