!NOTES:Middle initial "H" per D/C of son John.;

!NOTES:B/P Louisville, KY per D/C of son James.;

!NOTES:James H. Davis of Kentucky married into the William & Frances (Carpenter) Davis family of Mitchell Co., NC. I don't know if he is related in any way. He did not move to the Mitchell area until ca 1870/71, so perhaps it is a coincidence and there is no relationship prior to his marriage to Mary Greene, daughter of Mary Davis Greene.

!NOTES:D/C gives D/D as 21 May 1853 which agrees with 1900 census entry of May 1853. However, she was alive and 2 months old on the 1850 census,and her age matches that in 1860, 1870 and 1880, so she must have been born 21 May 1850 instead (assuming month and day are correct on other records).;
