Surnames: DAVIS, FISHER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/XeB.2ACE/3260 Message Board Post: It appears that Absalom G. Davis's mother's given name was Elizabeth and that Absalom married Louisa Fisher probably in Hawkins County roundabout 1837-1838 and removed to Illinois early 1850s. The family is enumerated at FN58 of the 1850 Federal Census of District 14, Hawkins County, Tennessee. iN 1850, Absalom reported his age as 29 and said he was born in Tennessee. The family removed Tennessee to Illinois in the early 1850s. In the 1860 Federal Census, when in Illinois, Absalom's mother Elizabeth reported her age as 84 and her place of birth as North Carolina I'm interested in finding the record of marriage of Absalom Davis and Louisa Fisher and identifying the parents of Louisa Fisher. Thanks, Sid Fisher
