Jul 5,2008 - - - - William E. Watson Did not want to comment, only to post a querie, I was unable to identify proper avenue. I am researching the family of Isaac & Julia A. DAVIS of Columbia Co., PA found in the 1850, 1860, & 1870 census there. If anyone can confirm that Julia’s maiden name was THOMAS, it would seem that I am on the right track. In addition to the three children listed in the census, Mariah (b.1831/38), Anthony W. (b.1832/34), & Eliza J. (b.1835/42), I am trying to tie in an older sibling, David Thomas DAVIS (b.1817) married 4 Jul 1843 in Union Co., Indiana to Rachel SNODGRASS. It also appears from the census that this Isaac died prior to 1870. If this is my DAVIS family, I would appreciate a complete list of their children, dates, spouses with a possible lead into the previous generation. The sons of David Thomas DAVIS (at least five) were all musically talented, a grandson was a famous jazz composer, piano, trumpet player in the 1920s & 30s, Charlie DAVIS, he was also a gridiron “not-so-great” player under Knute Rockney of Notre Dame. Charlie’s brother, John Abijah DAVIS, died just last year at age 100y plus, they were my dad’s second cousin. Thanks, Bill Watson XXX RESPONSE We have in our files considerable information about the Davis family, including the burials at the Davis Chapel Cemetery in Beaver Township, records of Isaac's father David Davis (a Methodist preacher, 1761-1843), an 1870 map showing Isaac's farm location in Beaver Township, etc. To request further research, please go to our Home Page, click on “Research Services” in the left column, then print out, complete, and mail the appropriate Request Form with a check for the fee.

He married Clara Bonham on June 10, 1890, lived in Nanticoke, PA and worked as an engineer for the Glen Aldan Coal Co. I was told that he was born out of wedlock. His mother was the Deily.
