also of Prince William County, VA Contact J Swann lswann@esper.com
Would your John be from Loudoun Co. VA?
Nathan Davis
John Davis
Enoch Davis
Mary Davis
Ann Matthews
Did a John b. 1757, father Isaac be the first John?
fountis@erols.com
Yes, I found Jesse Davis b. 2 Dec 1792 m. Nancy Mason
Jesse Davis is son of Isaac Jr. b. 1760 Pr. Wm. Co. m. ____
Isaac Jr. is son of Isaac b. 1723 m. Eliz. Kincheloe
Isaac is son of Wm. Davis who m. Ellen Bland
(So Robert Davis b. ___ is the son of Jesse Davis b. 2 Dec. 1792 m. Nancy
Mason.) So this Robert could not have been my John's father. He was
named for the Richard probably that I sent you. Anyway, you are kin to
Pres. Jefferson Davis. I have this family down so I can see it.
Not sure about our Robert or if there was a Robert (father). thanks,

I checked your web page, and besides Elizabeth and Mollie there
are other Davis/Kincheloe connections.
Elizabeth bn. 1726 in Prince William Co. VA md. Isaac Davis abt 1747.

md. abt 1718 Elizabeth Canterbury, d. bef 24 Mar 1746 Pr. William Co.
Elizabeth Canterbury bn. abt 1695 Richmond Co., dau. of John Canterbury
and Ruth Williams (dau. of Roger Williams & Joane). Elizabeth's brother
William Kincheloe, bn. 26 May 1736 Pr. William Co., d. 10 Oct 1788 Nelson
Co. KY, md. Mollie White. In his will (Nelson Co. KY Wills 1785-1820,
Will Book A, p. 321) he mentions his wife Mollie, sons Thomas, Stephen,
Lewis, Elias, Jesse & William, and daus. Peggy Davis, Mollie Davis,
Clary & Sally. 2 of the witnesses are Jesse Davis and Travis Davis.
Peggy md. Travis Davis, Mollie(Mary) md. Warren Davis, and Clarissa
(Clary) md. Isaac Davis. William's oldest son Thomas Ludwell Kincheloe
md. Nancy Edwards, his son Phillip K. of Wright Co. MO md. Caroline
Stith, and their son George Stith Kincheloe md. as his 2nd wife a
Rachel Davis. Is the Isaac who md. Clarissa K. also a son of Isaac, Jr.?
Most of this info was sent to me by Helen Payton of Charleston, SC and I
haven't had time to run it all down, so I can't vouch for all of it. The will
is
for real and the info on Phillip K. of Wright Co. is from the Wright Co.
Heritage Book which are not always dependable. Also where does
Travis Davis fit in ? I assume that Elizabeth Canterbury's mother is
supposedly a dau. of the Roger Williams. I've been meaning to check
that out.

With so many Jesse Davis, it gets darn confusing, not only for the Davis but
for others who intermarried. I can't remember how many Jesse's I have in
file.
The Jesse that married Milton was a whole different person/place and time
than the one that married Mason.
The most reliable info I have on my Jesse was his dad was Henry Davis Sr. b
in Lancaster PA who married a Mary Ann Gross, hence the Gross name entering
the picture. Henry moved to Kentucky at some point and died in Nelson, KY in
1809. Of course, Jesse Gross was born in 1792 in Nelson KY and moved to
Indiana during his lifetime. The background on Mason is complete. Nancy
lived to be 101 and her mom to 111.

Surnames: DAVIS, MASON
Searching for parents of Robert S. Davis b. 1 June 1784 Fauquier Co, VA; moved with his parents to NELSON CO, KY at age 19; m. 22 Dec
1810 to LUCINDA, d. of John Mason of NELSON CO, KY; he d. 7 Nov 1850 Keytesville, Chariton Co, MO; she d. same place 7 Dec
1833 aged 39. Lucinda mentioned in nuncupative will of John Mason 23 Dec 1813, recorded 21 Feb 1814 (Nelson Co Ky Will Book Cm
1811-1817, p. 181).Three Davises located in The Nelson Co. Pioneer: Henry with property sold in Prince Wm Co, Va 1801; William, same also in 1801; John in
town of Bloomfield and also with William witnesses(?) to will 2/1810. Which is Robert's father? OOr none?
Mr. Davis: I have posted, on the Nelson Co, KY website, what little
information I have about our Davis-Mason relatives - and I'm not sure
that your NANCY and my LUCINDA were sisters. For background: my
paternal gggrandfather was Henry Holman Davis, youngest son (and
possibly child) of ROBERT S. DAVIS and LUCINDA MASON. Robert and
Lucinda were both buried in the Old Keytesville Cemetary, Keytesville,
Chariton Co., MO, and I have seen both tombstones. His says "d. 7 Nov
1850 age 67y'; hers, "d. Dec 7. 1833 age-39T Consort of Robert S."
Per a vanity history of Chariton County of 1883, while both Sheriff
HENRY HOLMAN DAVIS and his older brother, the 2nd son and 3rd child,
Judge JOHN MASON DAVIS, were still living. The Judge's biographical
notation says that Robert Davis was born in Fauquier Co, VA on 1 Jun
1784 and moved with his parents to Nelson Co, KY when he was 19 (or
1803)/ On 22 Dec 1810 he m. LUCINDA MASON, and on 29 NOv 1811, thier
first son WILLIAM HARRISON DAVIS was born. Per Elisabeth Tooley (a
granddaughter of HHD), the other children were Ruth, Eliza, and
Catherine. There was also a Burgess, and I don't know where he fits
yet.
When WHD was 9, the family migrated to Missouri, specifically Old
Chariton where at least the youngest HHD was born in 1822. My
gggrandmother was the oldest daughter of HENRY HOLMAN DAVIS and ANN
ELISABETH CRAWLEY, daughter of JONATHAN CRAWLEY (one of founders and
surveyors of Fayette Mo and from VA) and ELISABETH RICHERSON MORGAN.
Their older daughter, JANE EMELINE, married first WILLIAM HARRISON DAVIS
- who was the first atty and county atty iin Chariton Co and d. 1845.
My dad used to say that those 'Davis men were real moneymakers".
As you'll see from my notes on the webpage, JOHN MASON's will shows his
wife to be RUTH, and his other daughter, NANCY DUNCAN. As family
word-of-mouth tells me that one of the RSD daughters was Ruth - which
would be his wife's mother, and the 2nd son was John Mason after the
child's maternal grandfather. If they did follow naming patterns, then
we can guess Robert's father was William because his first son was too.
Maybe, however, it was hero worship. The only reference, for example,
to any HOLMAN, was an early pioneer doctor in Old Chariton. Also, none
of the children of JOHN MASON DAVIS or HENRY HOLMAN DAVIS, have any of
the names you note: David, Jesse.
In the VA tax records of 1787, there were these Davises: Judith,
Mathew, Richard, John (with Richard), Aquila, Thomas, James, Eli, John
again, Hugh, and Joseph. The 1810 Nelson Co census lists Robert as a hed
of household - age 26-45. Others are Simon, 2 Thomases, 4 Johns - and
one who is possibly the man we want - 2 James, Mathew, Joseph, and Henry
- all in the same area as Robert. We also hhave a John Davis as witness
for a pensioners petition in the town of Bloomfield Nelson Co, section
7, but no further detail of which John Davis.
It will take great digging to ferret out which of the Davis clans we
each belong to, and at the moment I'm trying to get all my mother's
well-documented New England lines back to the water. Consequently, my
dad's lines have taken a backseat: too common names (like Mason, Davis,
Morgan) to be easy also. Do track down those contacts who came to me
via the internet, especially CNuffer - I think she's in Indiana too.
Good luck, and keep me posted on any progress you make - as will I too.

Jesse Gross Davis Sr. was born in Nelson Co., KY Oct 31, 1792.
Jesse died March 14, 1860 Pike County IN, at 67 years of age.
His body was interred in Spurgeon, Pike Co., IN, Davis Cemetery.
He married Nancy Mason in Elizabethtown, Hardin Co., KY, Dec 21, 1815.
Nancy was born in Kentucky Jan 6, 1795. Nancy was the daughter of John Mason and Hannah Hutcheson.
Nancy died Jan 9, 1896 Pike County IN, at 101 years of age.
Her body was interred in Spurgeon, Pike Co., IN, Davis Cemetery.
Consent for the marriage of Nancy and Jesse was granted by her mother on December 19, 1815.
Her mother's name was listed as Hannah Mayson.
Just after her daughter Tacy died, Nancy left land in a deed conveyance in October 1874,
to her grandchildren by Jesse Clifford.
Obit: Pike County Democrat, Friday, Jan 17, 1896 Nancy Davis,
the oldest person in this section of the country,
died at the residence of James Black last Sunday.
She was one hundred and one years old and was drawing
a pension as surviving widow of the war of 1812.
She was a sister to William and David Mason, Sr.,
who died a short time ago.
Jesse fought in the War of 1812 in John Farmer's Kentucky Militia.
On September 28, 1850 the government passed an act awarding 80 acres
of land as bounty for any survivors of the War of 1812.
On March 3, 1855 they passed another act allowing those same veterans
an additional 80 acres of land.
Jesse was awarded 80 acres of land on bounty land warrant 6274
and another 80 acres of land on bounty land warrant 46179.
On March 9, 1878 the government passed an act allowing widow's
of veterans of the War of 1812 to file for a pension.
In his pension file, on April 24, 1855,
Jesse stated that he was 63 years old and a resident of Pike Co IN.
That he had served for the term of six months (Nov 27, 1814 to May 10, 1815)
in the war of 1812 against Great Britain, that he had received
bounty land of 80 acres and had legally disposed of it.
He was applying for his second 80 acres.
In 1878, Nancy filed for a widow's pension.
She states that her husband at the time of his
enlistment at age 23 was a farmer about six feet,
black hair, hazel eyes and had dark complexion.
She states that he was born in Nelson County KY
and that they were married in Elizabethtown,
Hardin Co., KY by Martin Utterback a Baptist minister.
She states that her maiden name was Mason.
>From the date of their marriage to October 1819
they resided in Bardstown, KY (Nelson Co) when
they moved to Gibson Co., IN where they remained
about 20 years and then moved to Pike Co., IN
where they lived until the death of her husband
and where she still resided.
In the Tax lists for Hardin Co, KY Jesse is not listed in 1814.
He is listed in 1815 as owning one horse/mule worth $30.
He is not listed in 1816 or any year after.
According to Nancy's pension affadavit,
they were in Nelson Co, KY right after their marriage.
There is a Jesse Davis that purchased land Aug 28,
1818 in Gibson County IN.
He also purchased land on Sept 11, 1821,
January 11,1834 and March 30, 1836 in Gibson Co IN.
Buying land in the same parcel was
Robert Clark Davis (Nov 14, 1818),
Joel Davis (Sept 30, 1835) and
William Ross Davis (Dec 12, 1834).
It's possible that Jesse was related to these Davis's.
There is a Robert Davis listed in the 1815 Hardin Co KY tax list.
Jesse is listed in the 1820 and 1830 Gibson County IN census.
There is a Robert C. Davis, William R Davis and David Davis listed also.
In the parcel next to one above, John Davis purchased land May 13, 1833 and July 31, 1836.
While living in Gibson County Jesse purchased land in Pike Co. IN on March 29, 1837.
He is listed in the 1840 census in Pike Co.
Jesse also purchased land in Pike County on Nov 25, 1848, July 14, 1849,
Sept 21, 1850, and June 5, 1851 (used his Military Land Warrant).
In the same section of land his sons John J. and David J. also purchased land.
Based on the number of children listed in the 1840 census we have added those missing to our list.
In the 1850 census Jesse and family are in Pike Co IN in Monroe township.
Their grandchildren Lydia and Josiah Davis (children of David Jackson Davis and wife Lydia ?)
are living with them.
We know these are not Jesse's children because he states that his daughter
Tasey Lewis Davis born in 1842 is his youngest daughter.
After Jesse's son David's wife Lydia died he had remarried so we assume
that his mother took his two youngest children to raise.
In 1860 Nancy is living alone with her children still in Monroe township after Jesse's death.
In 1870, Nancy is living with her daughter Tacy Clifford and her family still in Monroe township.
Jesse left a will dated Dec 21, 1855 in Pike County, IN.
He only bequeathed land and/or goods to his wife, his 4 youngest children and one granddaughter.
He named his son David Jackson Davis as executor.
His older children may not have needed support or he may have already settled land or money
on them at an earlier date. In 1860 the disposition of items was made based on Jesse's will.
He left beds to two of his daughters, his wife and his granddaughter.
The value of his estate was approximately $3500.00.
In Sept 1881, an heirship deed conveying land to Jesse Clifford was filed in Pike County, IN .
All of Jesse's children are listed: David J., John J., Jesse G., Benoni S., Candis, Hannah Ritter, Nancy L., Sarah and Mary Ann.
Jesse Goss Davis Sr. and Nancy Mason had the following children:
2 i. Wilson Davis.
3 ii. David Jackson Davis was born 1817.
4 iii. John James Davis was born Nov 22, 1818 and died Sept 5, 1898.
5 iv. Jesse Goss Davis Jr. was born 1823 and died bef 1881.

10 ix. Candus Davis was born January 7, 1832.
11 x. Benona L. Davis was born 1835.
12 xi. Nancy Serina Davis was born in Indiana Nov 26, 1837. Nancy died July 2, 1925 at 87 years of age.
13 xii. Elizabeth Davis was born in Indiana 1840. Elizabeth died bef 1881.
14 xiii. Tasey Lewis Davis was born December 14, 1842 and died April 4, 1874.

information about any of these Davis families,
I would be happy to compare notes....Thank you..MLL.
This is VERY interesting! My "tree" shows a David Jackson Davis b. 1817 d. 1878 who married Lydia Wells.
They had a son, John Jasper Davis 1/3/1838. It seems like this must be the same David Jackson Davis,
but what is the story with his wife? Do you have any more info? My records show that David Jackson Davis'
parents were Jesse Davis and Nancy Mason. Is this what you have?

battles of Brandywine, Germantown and
Monmouth. He was born in Virginia; died

of Jesse as being buried in Louisville Ky,
and he is ancestor of Elvis Aaron Presley.

HI: Steven
I am the wife of John Davis, people mostly from KY. I now live in VA.
My father-in-law (Bailey) was a genealogist and Minister in KY. He is
gone now.
We come from a John Davis b. Aug 19, 1753 b. in Prince Wm. VA. We do not
know who he married. I feel he could be the son of Richard Davis. He
was in the RA War and we do have the records but no wife or father
listed. We know two children of John' were b. in Ky. Mary b. 1799 KY.
m. John DeVorss probably in Ohio and moved her dad (old John to MO) where
he is buried. Another son James, the one we came from, drowned 20 Jan
1823 in Houston Creek, near Paris, Ky. James was in 1812 War, enlisted
while visiting in Adams Ohio m. Margaret Moore of Bourbon Co. KY.
the rest of the family I have down.
From the Davis Clearing House I received this info. John Davis m. 1690
Susannah Watts had son Thomas Davis, b. Aug 1, 1693 settled in Woodford
Co. Ky. He m. 1717 Sarah Fielding and they had
1. Thomas b. 1720,
2. Wm. b. April 30, 1727 m. Catherine Carter
3. Susannah Davis b. Sept 9, 1729 m. Richard Smith
4. John b. 3 July 1723 m. Betty Carter
5. Edward Fielding Davis b. May 6, 1718
6. James Conway b. Nov 3, 1719
7. Richard b. June 15, 1725 m. 1745 Sabrina Harrison
this A. Richard had Susanna Davis, Eliz, Thomas, Susan, Priscilla, Wm and
Ann
B. James b. 1748
C. Joseph b. 1760
D. Thomas b. 1750
E. John b. 1752
F. Charles b. 1758
G. Benj b. 1755
H. Nancy b. 1775
I. Frances
NOTICE: James, Joseph, Thomas, John Charles all in RW War I do not
know if this John b. 1752 is our John or not. I hope you have answers.
1752 is close to 1753 when we were told our John was b.
I am asking for help but I will try to help you!
Capt. John Metcalfe was m. three times. My line is Rhoda Dent (Chinn ?)
Will is on p. 336 "History of Maysville and Mason Co. by Clift.
He served in Rev. as Ensign and called CAPT.
His son Thomas Metcalfe m. Nancy Mason dau. of Burgess Mason and Jennie
Lee dau. of Stephen Lee. (Thomas was 10th Gov. of KY 1828-32).
Their dau. Jane Lee Metcalfe m. John Preston Campbell. After death of
Jane Lee, John Preston m. her sister, Mary Ann Metcalfe.
Jane Lee Metcalfe Campbell and John P. Campbell had a son THOMAS
Metcalfe Campbell, Capt in Confederate Army. He m. Margaret Lucinda
Banta
Thomas M. Campbell and Margaret had dau. Pauline Campbell who m.
Thomas Isaac Davis
Their son John Fulton Davis m. Lucy Ann Bailey parents of Bailey Davis
(my father from KY) I can give dates and etc. if you are interested.
The Lee's do not think we are from Handcock Lee (Who was CAPT Stephen's
Lee, from Maysville, KY?) They say Burgess is not in their line.
Henry Lee's bother-in-law ____ Lashbook had a fire in Maysville and it
named him and Taliaferro along with Lee as suffers. Leanna Lashbrook is
named in Stephen's will.
Now the Mason Line. I have not studied it. Our Nancy Mason married
Thomas Metcalfe (We have visited the home many times in KY. and they are
buried in the grave lot there.)
Maybe there are two Richard Davis'. If you have this Richard's family
who married a Mason I would like to see it. Maybe we have other Mason's
in our family? Every little piece of the puzzle fits some place.
Thanks in advance for your help. Hope to hear from you, JJ or fountis
and John my husband Davis. (Fountis is from Fountaine family - my Mom's
family)
