I'm keeping my eye out for thinks like family names, since the kids are so obviously named for relatives on her side. I'm hoping that the William Eads DAVIS was named after someone upline, but I haven't been able to get past William DAVIS b. 1826 .... Also have no info on any siblings of William DAVIS. I've just recently come across the parents and siblings of Zaselda CRUNK and have found no EADS there (yet). Since William DAVIS was in TX (marriage records) in 1843, I'm not sure how the EADS in AL in 1900's would connect...if at all. Claire English ------------------------------
