Hi Wander:
What a neat surprise to read your information !
Where did you get the date of Alexander DAVIDSON's birth as 1690?Do you know where he was born -- I had somethingsomewhere indicating the area around Inverness(you know, where Nessie lives?) He is believed to have come to America via Ireland with his two brothers, William, and (my line) Hezekiah. What do you know about this?
My line gives me a lot of Davidsons, Ellis', etc.,and I am interested in Alexander II, born in 1744, Gloucester Co, VA, d. 1817 in Barren Co., KY and buried there in the churchyard of the church he'd helped found.
He Married Anne BRIDGES (WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS LINE?), whose son John, b. about 1770 and married Rachel ELLIS.Both are buried on his son's farm in or near Greene Co., IL.
His second marriage was to Mary ELLIS, and I read some information re their children that was wrong -- it included a son Allen Albert and gives the birthdate of 1813, also another son Albert Bishop, same date -- but I believe these were the twins, children of Isaac, child of Alex II's second marriage to Mary ELLis in 1783.
It is entirely too late and I'm really tired, and have to get some sleep, but am SO tickled to read your listing.
Hope to hear from you?
Patricia
