Davis in GA, FL (TW Thomas William, Samuel Henry...)
I'm searching for my ancestors for fun, for reconnection, and to verify how we might link to Jefferson Davis, as we've been told we do.
My name is William Allen Davis. I have a brother Thomas Henry Davis. Our father is Samuel Henry Davis, born 1917. Our father had two siblings, Mary Frances and Thomas William Jr ("T.W.").As of the mid 1960's Mary Frances Davis Owens had at least one daughter (Regina, who later had two children Bob and Susan), and TW had a son Edward and a daughter, with connections to St. Simon's Island GA.
Our grandfather is Thomas William Davis Sr., born in GA ~1880 and killed by lightning ~mid 1917 in central FL. The family had connections in Lyons GA, where my father and his siblings were raised by their aunts (Lois and others) while their mother (TW Sr's wife, Mae Rogers Davis) worked.
Any help, links or direction to records would be greatly appreciated!
