Comments: To the best of my knowledge, with what records I have....the rest of this branch of the DAVIS family settled in Mississippi.  In fact, Joseph went back to Mississippi to either visit or help his son, Chris, to move to
Texas.  While there in Mississippi, probably in Yazoo County, Joseph died.

 Sources: Local branch information was obtained from birth, death and marriage certificates plus cemetery records and census.  Ancestry information was largely from Janice Barnett Craft...a descendant of John and Rachel (Greer) Davis. .
