General Comments:
William Davidson arrived in Jefferson County Ohio in approximately 1799 when he leased land in Wayne Township. After what appears to be an untimely death in 1808, his wife Susannah remained in Jefferson County until 1831 when she was an original purchaser of 160 acres in Holmes Cty, German Twp (now Clark), Range 5; Twp 8; Sect 9; SE 1/4. A Nuncupative Will by William Davidson mentions his wife Susannah and Joshua Davidson, the oldest son, both of whom were a witness. There were 11 children of the marriage, Joshua, Eleanor, William Jr., Elizabeth, Sarah, James, Mary, Joseph, Susannah, Reason and Jane.
Just prior to his entry to Jefferson Cty, Ohio some researchers believe that he was in Washington County, PA which is across the Ohio River from Jefferson Cty, Ohio. I have not been able to prove that. Prior to this period he was in Maryland where Joshua, the eldest child was born according to census data. William's wife Susannah was b. VA according to census data. Her surname is not known. |
