I also have been wondering how the ten Davises on the 1783 list might be related so your message interested me very much.
Is your Thomas Davis on the 1783 tax list the same Thomas Thomas who is on the 1797 and 1798 Greene Co. tax lists owning 500 acres on C. Creek in Captain James Penney's Company? (William Davis listed near him owning 50 acres in 1797 and 150 acres in 1798 on Middle Creek.)
I think this Thomas Davis on the tax lists may be the father of Elizabeth Davis who married Robert O'Neal in 1792. Robert O'Neal is listed with 200 acres on Chucky Creek in Captain James Penney's Company on the 1797 and 1798 tax lists.
A William Davis married Susanna Hixon in Greene Co. on 27 August 1794 so if this is the same William, he might be Elizabeth Davis O'Neal's brother.
Could you please tell me if Thomas Davis' will indicates that he had a daughter named Elizabeth who married Robert O'Neal? Do you know if the C. Creek where the Thomas Davis lived is Chucky Creek or, if not, what creek his land was located near?
Thanks, Frank McFarland
