  In answer to VCJFreeman:
 This is the same Arrington's and Davis's!
  Eliza A. Davis was the sister of my gr.gr.grandfather, Green Jackson Davis.
 They were the children of Chesley and Elana Green Davis.
 John H. Davis was the son of Green Davis and Talitha Hines.
 Their son, Robert J. Davis, was my grandfather.
 Grover K. Davis, their son, was my father.
  Dovie Lee Arrington, was the daughter of William Arrington and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Davis. William is the son of John J. Arrington and Mary Catherine Prestride, my gr.gr.grandparents!
  My grandparents, (Robert J. (Bob) Davis, and Dovie Arrington Davis) and their family lived in Bowdon, 1917-1928.
  Children:
 Vesta, Velma, Grover, Everett, and Paul.
  They were on the 1920 Bowdon Census, living on Main Street.
  They moved to Atlanta in 1928. Everett did about 1937, and was buried in Bowdon.
  Susan
