d-Francis Marion Davidson married Minnie Allen, a daughter of Eugene Allen.
3-Nancy Powell Davidson, daughter of Josiah and Susan Davidson, married Seth Wade Hughes, a carpen-ter and builder, a son of Leander Hughes, Sr. They are cousins once removed. Address, Harrisburg, Illinois. Their children will be given under the head of Seth Wade Hughes.
4-Samuel Anderson Davidson married Sarah Riley. He is a farmer. Address, not known. I am not sure that he is Iiving. He served in the 48th Illinois Infantry in the Civil War.
5-Leroy Davidson, was, a farmer. He served in the 48th Illinois Infantry in the Civil War. He was twice married. His first wife was Jemima Threlkeld and his second was. Paulina Franklin. He died about or a Iittle prior to 1890.

Their children's names are not fully known. His oldest son, Grant, mar-ried Lola Pond. His -oldest daughter, Elizabeth, married David W. Carter. His daughter Sallie married her cousin, Thomas Davidson, a son of Samuel A. Davidson. He had twin sons generally called Buckner and Terrell, but I do not know their full names.

8-Benjamin Franklin Davidson is a farmer and car-penter. He served in the 3rd Kentucky Cavalry from March, 1864, to the close of the war, was with Sherman's army all of that time. He has been twice married. He first married Edna Threlkeld. His second wife was Eliz-abeth Wilson. His present address is Soldiers' Home, Danville, Illinois.
9-William Brookshire Davidson married Harriet Ali-son, a daughter of Berry Alison. I think his present ad-dress is Marion, Ky.

General Notes: Husband - Josiah Davidson

It has been reported that there is a Bible records than indicates Josiahs parents were Josiah Davidson and Ann McCauley. Believe Josiah died and Josiah Jr was raised by John, his grandfather??

There is a Josiah Davidson in Dickson County in 1820, 1830 who appears to have moved on to Missouri. Dickson County is about 90 m iles from Smith County. May be Josiah Abner Davidson who married Rachel Evans. see http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/16673430/person/5133724152?ssrc=
He was born in Va, son of a John Davidson family from North Carolina.

There is a Josiah Davidson in Buckingham County, Virginia 1810, 1820 and 1830...but this is DNA Family 10.
