Linda, My name is Alice
Braddy Davis (my mother's maiden name, as well as my married name). I have a "birthday" book that belonged to my great aunt Florine (
Davis)
Scarborough. She received it from a Mrs. S.F.Davis, Christmas 1944. Aunt Florine was my grandfather John James
Furman Davis sister. In this book is listed a Stanley
Davis, Feb.2(no year), Aunt Jennie (Mrs. Forbes), Feb.4, Linda
Valle, April 20, 1944 Janalynn's baby (I would assume this to be you)!, Mrs. S.F.Davis, July 5. I found your grandparents, Stanley and Aletha
Davis in the
Erath county Texas census for 1930, along with Stanley F.Davis Jr., Robert J. Davis, Janalynn
Davis, and Jennie
Forbes. (listed as an aunt-in-law). I guess my burning question is how these
Davis are connected with my
Davis line from Stephenville,
Erath,
Texas. I had a great grandfather, Thomas Lloyd
Davis, wife Ruby (
Hollingsworth)
Davis, daughter Pauline
Davis, son
Collis Davis, son John James
Furman Davis and daughter Florine
Davis that were in Stephenville from approx.1910 to at least 1929 (Thomas Lloyd died there in 1929). If you can shed some light on this mystery I would appreciate it. There are other names in this book, if you are interested. Thanks, Alice
Braddy Davis Elmendorf,
