Appendix A - Notes
1. Joseph DAVIDSON Pvt, 1st NC Batt
2. Alexander DAVIDSON Capt.
"Revolutionary War Patriots of Marshall County, Tennessee", compiled
by Jane W. Alford, 1976
Captain Alexander Davidson was born before 1755 in Rowan County, North Carolina, and died
in Bedford County (now Marshall), Tennessee, in 1818. He was the son of Revolutionary soldier,
Joseph Davidson who was born ca. 1725 and died after September 15, 1795, in Statesville, North
Carolina. Captain Davidson married Henrietta Clayton in Rowan County, in 1769. She was the
daughter of George Clayton, b. 1723, d. 1786, and Sarah Lambert. Henrietta was born in 1745.
Captain Davidson was living in Rowan County, when the war began and records show he enlisted
April 26, 1776. He was in Colonel Thomas Clark's Company, First North Carolina Battalion. "Sketches
of Western North Carolina" by Hunter, gives a good account of his participation in the war:
"Captain Alexander Davidson was one of the earliest settlers on the Western part of Rowan
County (now Iredell). He took an active part in the Revolutionary struggle for independence.
When Cornwallis was moving from Charleston toward North Carolina and General Gates was
ordered to meet him, Governor Caswell, of North Carolina ordered a draft of men to strengthen
Gates' army. In response to this order the people in that part of Iredell County bordering on the
Catawaba River below the Island Ford, assembled at a central point, afterwards known as Brown's
Muster Ground, when a company was formed under the draft, and Alexander Davidson was elected
captain. Soon afterward Captain Davidson marched his company to Gates' rendezvous when that
officer moved his army to the unfortunate and sanguinary field of Camden, South Carolina.
In that disastrous engagement Captain Davidson's company took an active part, and the greater
portion of them was cut to pieces."
Captain Davidson and his wife came early to Tennessee for he appears in Williamson County,
Tennessee, court records as of August 2, 1805, and again in 1808.
He and his wife are buried in Round Hill Cemetery at Belfast, Tennessee, in unmarked graves.
Their children were as follows:
1. Joseph Davidson, b. Aug. 15, 1779, in Iredell Co., NC, d. June 3, 1859, married (1) Sarah Nesbit,
d. 1825, married (2) Salina Hart, b. 1800, d. 1863.
2. Thomas Davidson, b. May 21, 1783, in N. C., d. Mar. 3, 1864, married 1815 Sarah Leeper Miller,
b. Dec. 29, 1798, in S. C., d. Feb. 12, 1874, the daughter of James Miller. (Buried in Round Hill Cem.).
3. Sarah Davidson, d. Aug. 3, 1839, married Silas Sharp, b. 1779, d. 1851.
4. James Davidson.
5. Obediah Davidson.
Probably others. Legend has it that another daughter is Elizabeth Henrellia Davidson,
b. June 13, 1789, d. Aug. 17, 1855, (Buried in McAdams Cem. near Richmond, TN) married John McAdams.

....Robert Q. moved with his family to Pontotoc County
Mississippi. According to the Davidson Family Bible, he lived in Waco Texas at one time
and died January 13, 1892. I have no information on his wife, children or place of death
or burial. In 1892, an article in a Waco TX newspaper tells of R Q Davidson who died and
left his family in destitute situation. A wife and three children are mentioned.
The officer filing the report obtained a casket and transportation for burial in Mart Texas.

James T. Miller [email protected]
I'll see if I can explain all the stuff I have been told: The Millers, Rogers, and
Davidsons, all came out of the TN-NC-SC area about Revolutionary war times.
Davidsons and Rogers participarted, I don't know about the MIllers. The Millers
did, about 1837 move from TN-NC-SC to Woodson's Rige, Mississippi. They later
moved to Sarepta, where, at the same time lived some Rogers. My Rogers moved
in 1850 from TN to Frisco. The Millers claim ancestory to the Scots. The Rogers
claim ancestory to England. Mother always said we were "Scotch-Irish-English"
which suggests the Davidsons might have been among the "Ulster Irish." Following
the War, Great Uncle Sam, a Methodist preacher, migrated to Frisco, Denton County,
Texas and there met up with the Rogers. There might have been an earlier connection
from the Sarepta period. Grandfather David Miller, also a Methodist preacher, preached
in Drew MS.
In Frisco, Great Uncle Sam's daughter, Maude, married Addison Rogers, the brother of
my Grandmother, Dona Rogers Davidson. A few years later, my teenage father, Joseph T,
was sent from Drew to live in Frisco with Great Uncle Sam and Cousin Maude Rogers.
Inevitably, Joseph Miller met Lenora Elizabeth Davidson. We Millers migrated to California
in 1923 where I grew up. I remember mostly the Texas relatives, although several of Joe T's
brothers and sisters visited us in California. James T. Miller.
I've tried to record most of my experiences so our grandchildren won't be in
the dark, as we have been. When I realized a great change in my life's
philosophy, I wrote this little essay.
