Can someone tell me about his church? What were their beliefs? Rose

Clara: The lady who wrote this book has passed away. The book is fairly new being published in 1994. It was published by Family History Publishers, 845 South Main St, Bountiful, Utah 84010. They might have copies. What names are you interested in? I looked for the names in your email and did not find any of the women. I do have a John Davis and a John Davis Jr but no Huggins wife. Are there any others?

Hello Clara: I am so happy to hear from you. I dont know about the Robert E. Lee thing but my Davis line left (we think) Hardy Co, VA and went to Oh. Some ended up in Indiana and points west. There is also a possibility of them being in PA. I only have a book with this particular line, it is called "Days of our Davis" by Louise (Moore) Burt. I can check names in the book.

Elmer Think you left off a letter in this address It should be Rosebud4242@peoplepc.com I sent an e-mail to Rosebud4242@peoplep.com & it was returned.

I sent an e-mail to Rosebud4242@peoplep.com & it was returned. It suddenly dawned on me that I have DAVIS connections also. My maternal grandmother, Edna Ann Davis, b. 1864 in Tamoroa, IL, was d/o Patrick Joseph Davis s/o John Davis who married Elizabeth Huggins. 1st wife for Patrick Joseph Davis was Martha C. Sanders, d/o Thomas Sanders (Saunders) who first married Jemima Lee. (related to Robert E. Lee !) I look forward to hearing from you. Do you see a connection to your DAVIS lineage?

Hello, Is the name Yoakam ( Yocum, Yoakem, and so on ) or Harness mentioned in this book? Sincerely, Larry Carr

I have the book, History Of Knox County Ohio From 1779 to 1862 Inclusive by A. Banning Norton, 1862 but it is not indexed. This free site may be of help. Barbara Sheehan _http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Knox/Knox1862Index.htm_ (http://www.heritagepursuit.com/Knox/Knox1862Index.htm)

120 pages which includes: agriculture arts and crafts banks businesses carnivals and festivals churches communications community scenes disasters entertainment extension homemakers 4-h government health heritage weekend hotels and restaurants industries libraries organizations national register of historical places parks and recreation schools and education sports transportation I found a picture of my grandfather taken in 1906... Awesome!

I am looking for informatin on James Davis who married Nancy Norton and had John, Samuel, Mary Ann, Margaret John was born 24 Jul 1781 in Hardy Co, VA. he married Leah Harris on the 6 Jan 1806 in VA. They had James, Matilda, Mary, Nancy, Rebecca, Rhoda, John jr, Patsy and Sarah. She died on 11 Aug 1820 in Milford,Knox, Ohio. John then married Joanna Doty and had Sally 1822, Ephriam 14 Oct 1824, Leah 7 Jan 1826, Peter 29 Jan 1828 and Charles Davis 6 Dec 1829. Joanna died 7 Jan 1831 in Milford, Knox, Ohio. John then married Rachel Mclane who I find has no children listed. She died in 1835 in Knox or Allen counties. John then married Rebecca Bird on 5th of Jan 1841. They lived in Allen Co, Ohio where she died in 1877. John died in 1856.

Even though you say county records went to WV, not all of them, I just found an 1838 record in Richmond, it stayed in VA.

The book HARDY COUNTY THEN AND NOW 1786-1986 was a Bicentennial Project of Hardy County Extension Homemakers Council Project published in 1986

David: Was it you that gave a discription of the Church of the Brethern? I have deleted that accidentally. My John Davis had a half brother Ephriam (son of James), who was a Dunkard according to the Days of our Davis book. Rose

I have a James Davis with a son John. James wife was Nancy Norton. JOhn married Leah Harris and they moved to Knox county Ohio and later to Allen CO. I wish I could find a connection for them. JOhn was born 1781 in Hardy COunty and died in 1856 in Allen CO, Ohio. Have you ever heard of these people Mike? Rose

I do not know if they are the same book. Are they both written by Richard K. Mc Master? Earlier today an e-mail directed one to some pages from the book "The History of Hardy County 1786 - 1986" I found two of my lines mentioned in the pages and wanted to buy the book. Others were interested in the book too.
