Note: Henry's Census indicates he was born in NY. I was not successful in finding an 1800-1840 census for him in NY. Nor was I able to find an earlier census than 1850 for him in the Berkeley or Morgan Counties either. 1850 Census for Morgan County, District 42, VA (image 2) lists 56 year old Henry Davis as head of household in farming with a farm value of $850. He was born in NY. Also listed is his 50 year old wife, Amelia, and 2 children: 8 year old Julia Ann and 5 year old Henry Davis.
