Davis family of Orangeburg Co. SCBased on cemetery records, Daniel David Davis was born in 1805 and died in 1882. He appears in the Orangeburg Co. census records in 1850-1880. His wife was Catherine Fralick (1814-ca. 1905).Does anyone have information going further back?

Millhouse Clara Davis (1859-?) m. Tom Cartmill Jeff Davis (1863-?) Willie Lucius Davis (1865-1937) m. Ida Houck I suspect Asbury Davis, Ellen's first husband, was a cousin of hers; Martin Fralick definitely was. Ellen had three children by Asbury Davis (Mary Cornelia, Edward Patrick, and Caroline Davis) and five children by Martin Fralick. These will be listed on a Fralick page currently under construction.
