Steven, can you tell me where the Davis part of your family was from.My g grandfather was Dr. John Dawson McConnell. He was born in Penn in 1823 where his father (don't know his name) was born. He moved to MS in 1840's, bought theVicksburg Sentinel newspaper, married, she died, then he remarried a Mary Mason Davis who had been married to a Robert Martin. When John and Mary got married in1856 he wrote her a poem which said we have known each other since childhood.She was born in Virginia in 1823.She named her two daughters by the first marriage Fannie and Mollie.Her father was Joseph Davis.Do you know any more about the John McConnell side that married a (6) Nancy Davis and then a (6)Fanny Davis in your family?
