Have managed to find William A Davison's (Davisson's death certificate and it
lists his parents as William Davison and Davis. Mother's first name does not appear.
Supposedly by his headstone he was born in Dec 22, 1857. This is definitely the right
William Davisson, however there either has to be a discrepency in the year William was
born or when Amanda died. Either he was born in 1856 and she died in 1857 or he was born
in 1857 and she died in 1858. Odds are that he probably couldn't recall his exact
birthdate, as neither of his parents raised him. I have photo's of William and wife
Mary's (Beckner)headstone from the David City, Nebraska cemetery. Also that of
Mary's parents Jacob Beckner and wife Sally (Chivington). Also have copies of William
A Davisson's death certificate and obituary and Mary's death certificate.
