    Notes:

    Florence Times, 20 Jul 1906, p. 7 Lexington ....The Death Angel visited in our midst on the 2d day of this month and claimed for its victim Aunt Jane Davis after a lingering illness of six weeks, at the advanced age of 81 years. She joined the Methodist Episcopal Church at about 12 years of age, and since that time she has lived a consisitant member of that church.

    She leaves seven children, four sons and three daughters. Mr. T. C. DAVIS of this community, Mr. John DAVIS of Tennesee, Mr. J. H. DAVIS of Loretta, Tenn., Mr. Wesley DAVIS of Center Star, Ala., Mrs. Fannie ALLEN of Arkdell, Ala., Misses Mary and Sallie DAVIS of this place.

    She also leaves one brother and three sisters. Mrs. Rebecca DAVIS, Mrs. Katherine BELEW, Mrs. Cyntha McGUIRE, and Mr. John PORTER, all of whom are living near Lexington except Mrs. Rebecca DAVIS of Florence. Aunt Jane was a quiet follower of the Lord. Her mind was centered on things heavenly and divine. It was sweet to converse with her. It would attract any one's mind heavenward and make them think of how they should live to reach that home of rest. To the bereaved we extend our heartfelt sympathy.... ==================== 1870 Cen Laud Co Al [by Warren, p. 7] hh # 279/279 DAVIS, Thomas 48 m w farmer AL ", Jane 42 f w keeps hou AL ", Wesley 19 m w farms AL ", Mary 17 f w at home AL ", Jane 15 f w at home AL ", Hughey 15 m w farms AL ", John W. 10 m w farms AL ", James 8 m w AL ", Harrison 7 m w AL ", Andrew 6 m w AL ", Robert 5 m w AL ", Cyntha 3 f w AL ", Frank 1 m w AL (should be Frances (f) see 1880 census - Fannie Allen]
