Welcome to my Davis genealogy pages. I am interested
in the Davis surname in South Eastern North Carolina, primarily in the
counties of Brunswick and Columbus. Since this is such a common surname
I have not researched them in other nearby counties.

My Ancestry:
- Cornelius
"Neal" Davis (c1805-after 1882) and wife Tabitha Jones
lived near the Delco community in what is now Columbus County, North
Carolina. This area was part of Brunswick County for most of their
lives. I have not been able to determine who Neal's parents were. When
he was just 10 years old Neal was deeded land by one Jonah Keith. This
suggests a familial relationship, but I don't know the nature of it yet.
-
Mahala Davis (c1845-after 1880) never married as far as
can be determined. She had one child out of wedlock, the father
unknown, though it could be W. R. Skipper or William Smith, Jr, both of
whom signed as bondsman for the bastardy bond.
-
Mary Catherine Davis (1866-c1902) married William Henry
Watson (1852-c1902) in 1882 in Columbus Co., NC.

3 Mar 2014 - Discovered that I had
accidentally deleted my Davis web pages (both online and original
offline copies), so took this opportunity to update the look to my new
standard style.
