NOTES: My family is a DNA match to an early ancestor of this line, possibly the parents of
John DAVIDSON out of PA as my ancestors were from there. I'm hoping by learning
everything I can about this line I will find the connection to my own. Much more research
needs to be done on the original ancestor JOHN DAVIDSON out of PA born c1826...and what
took him to Bullitt Co., KY.
