I checked my 1880 census for Vigo and Clay Counties and didn't find them. Also
checked for Eliza and James Davis because my marriage index says James E Davis md Eliza A
Gordon Apr 27, 1871 in Clay County; Bk 3, pg 153.
There were 5 James Davis' in Vigo County; only 3 married; James, 66 and Laura P, 58;
James L, 52 and Ellen, 50; and James H, 33, b. IL, and Laura A, 29, b. MD; they had three
daughters. In Clay, the only James is a 9-yr old son of Watkin and Sarah Davis.
There were 282 James Davis' in IN. Do you have an age? Where he was born? If so,
would be happy to search further; email me at rzgrdn(a)rapidnet.com. I have the 1880
National Transribed Census from the Family History Center and the Vigo and Sullivan County
images.
