Hello Terry,

Your Henry showed up in 1880 in Mason Co., W. Va and stated that his parents were born in Connecticut.

Henry A age 27 OH CONN CONN
Mary R age 30 VA OH OH
Stella age 9 WV
James E age 7 WV
Jersey age 5 WV
John H age 2 WV
Next door was the Rauch family (link to Jersey Raush?)


Henry showed up in 1900 in Meigs Co., OH and stated that his parents were born in New York.

7 June 1900, Olive Twp, Meigs Co., OH page 81

Davidson, Henry head b. Apr 1851 age 49 married 1 time for 27 years, had 8 children all survive OH NY NY farmer
Davidson Mary wife b. Mch 1848 age 52 m. 1 time WV WV WV
James son b. Aug 1873 age 26 single WV OH WV

Davidson, Blanche grandaughter b. May 1899 age 1 WV OH WV
Davidson, Margaret grandaughter b. Aug 1897 age 2 OH OH OH
Davidson, Ernest A grandson b. Jun 1892 age 7 OH OH OH

In 1920 Henry appears to be living in Ohio next to son James.

6 & y January 1920, Waterloo Twp, Marshfield Pct., Athens Co., OH page 257
household 54
Frank Davidson age 33 WV WV WV miner
Lucy wife age 25 OH OH OH
Marion son age 1y3m OH WV OH
household 55
Henry Davidson age 72 WV WV WV farmer general farm
Mary wive age 71 OH OH OH

Again in 1930, Frank is living in Athens Co., Ohio, page 114 with a different wife and several step-children by the last name of Stover. Next door is
Henry A Davidson age 77 married at age 19 OH PA NY
Mary M wife age 81 married at age 22 WV WV WV
John H son age 44 married at age 19 WV OH WV Coal cooder in coal mine
If this is your Henry living in Ohio in 1930 you should be able to find a death certificate for him, which may list his parents.

He is most likely this Henry Davidson:

DAVIDSON, Henry Death date: 3/9/1934, Meigs County
Volume #7467, Certificate #18559
