Chris: Thanks for the help. I am trying to determine if your Davis family is related to my Davis family of White Co., IN. Noah who m. Mary Jane Van Voorst is of particular interest since Rev. John Davis of Harford, MD m. Jane Van Voorst about 1742, a member of the same family as Mary Jane Van Voorst. This fact may lead to a relationship of Wiliam U or W. Davis to Abel Davis [c.1765-1847] b. in MD, lived in Monongalia Co., Va from about 1788 to 1818, moved to Champaign Co., OH and on to White Co., IN in 1835. Abel d. testate in White Co. leaving his property to his son Isaac. It is believed that a Lemuel Davis, b. about 1814 in KY was related to Abel DAvis. Rev. John Davis of MD was a brother of Abel Davis [c1725-1790]who was s/o Daniel Davis & Mary Mann who moved from Piscataway, NJ to Bucks Co., PA about 1721. Thanks again. I will search further.
