General Notes: Husband - William A Davidson
From Pat Toty, DNA 7 member via Thomas Booker Davidson: Regarding William A Davidson, I have writings from my gg grandfather Tom's niece about the children, etc. of Allen & Lucy. There are two different other sources that state almost the same thing at Rootsweb World connect (Mary Ann Errigo and a Hemphill). One of the sites leads you to the cemetery in Texas that states in it's records that he is the son of Allen and Lucy Davidson.
See fathers census summary, he would have to have been born in 1830 to make any sense of census records.

Supposedly never married, no children. But this WWII registration, being born in Lawrence, sure suggests it is son of Samuel, and that he was married.Ignoring the year, the birthday matches!
