John New of Charles City Co., VA; Mrs. Mary Davidson
Records show that the widow Mrs. Mary (Unknown) Davidson....the widow of Solomon Davidson....married second to a John New in Charles City Co., VA.Does any one know the lineage of that John New?Does anyone know if John and Mary had any children together?Had that John New also been married previously?
We know that Solomon and Mary (Unknown) Davidson had at least one son who was named David Davidson (David was born around 1762; he served in the Rev. War, married Mary "Maza" Phillips and moved to Halifax Co. VA around 1805) and at least on daughter who was named Elizabeth Davidson (Elizabeth married a William Phillips in CCCo in the 1780s).Solomon Davidson apparently died around 1765-1770 (+/-), so his wife Mary Unknown would have married John New sometime after that.
The Davidson ancestors of the above Solomon Davidson were in James City Co., VA (JCCo) by at least 1682, and their land (just west of the Chicahominy River) was in the part of JCCo that was added to Charles City Co., VA in 1720.
