 Are you a Davis relative from Granville/Person county? I am currently working on adding about 1300 text file records to my 'The Master Genealogist' files. Once I get that done, I will start looking for more contemporary cousins that have been missed in the recent past. 

Records I worked on today:

Virginia Dare Lyon 

Charlotte Terrell

Jesse Carter Lyon.

William Henry Lyon

Catherine Husketh

Jesse Blount Lyon.

Julian Vinson Lyon.

Jerry Ray Lyon.

Pearl Taylor.

Cora V Lyon.

I took descendant charts to the Reunion today and a lot of people checked them out and mentioned things that were missing. Goody! great start. 

Now if I can just get them interested in looking for John J/W Davis b ca 1815 Warren Co, NC and died before 1849. He got married and had kids. NC? GA? maybe.

 At the Davis Reunion today at the Trinity United Methodist Church on Goshen Rd, with an address in Oxford, NC I met a Muse cousin.

The minister made a statement in favor of nuclear family units to the exclusion of others, which I found sad. 

The next 3 books are at the publishers and I am awaiting information from the editorial staff and a contract. Granville Co, NC land records based on the manuscript of Zae Gwynn, 1753ish to 1826ish. Lots of annotations were added.
