Ekks..... Help.....
Its been awhile since I did any work on my Davis family tree, but I'm now very confused and can't find my notes to see where the information I have came from. I'm hoping that maybe one of you can shine some light my way......
Ok, I have the following in my tree:
Robert Davis b. January 26, 1894 St. Ives, England d. July 1974 Grandville Michigan USA (son of Robert Davis and Alice Perkin)
married on November 18, 1913 Iron County, Michigan to
Mary Peak b. June 1, 1889 England d. May 1971 Detroit Michigan.
Notes: Robert, Mary and first son Robert immigrated to United States in 1909. Robert received his citizenship in 1917. He was a laborer in the Iron Mine. Mary's brother William Peak also immigrated with them in 1909 and a nephew Robert Thomas Davis, and were living withthem in the 1920 US census. Robert was baptized in St. Ives on September 26, 1894.
They had 5 children:
1. Robert Davis b. September 16, 1907 England d. July 12, 1989 Minneapolis Minnesota
2. Joseph Davis b. abt. 1915 ??
3. Audrey Davis b. January 14, 1917 d. July 15, 1987 Alpha, Iron County, Michigan she married Jeano Frizzo in Crystal Falls, Mich
4. Catherine Davis b. abt. 1919 ??
5. William Davis b. abt. 1922 ??
** I have that Robert b. 1894 (above) was the son of Robert Davis b. abt. 1859 St. Ives and Alice Perkin b. abt. 1859 St. Ives, and that he was the second from the youngest of 7 children including:
1. Bessie Paynter Davis b. 1879 St. Ives
2. Grace Trevurrow Davis b. August 23, 1885 St. Ives
3. Anne Davis b. December 16, 1887 St. Ives
4. Harriet or Hannah Davis b. abt. 1888 St.Ives
5. Cartherine Anthony Davis b. May 23, 1891 St. Ives
6. Robert (my confusion)
7. Alice Davis b. October 19, 1896 St. Ives.
Ok now to my confusion. I recently received a letter from a distant Davis relative here in the United States Michaeline Belongia Listle, the daughter of Johanna Davis and Edward Belongia. Johanna would be the daughter of Thomas Davis and Jane (and I also have that this Thomas Davis was first married to a Mary Cocking, then married a Jane) and she was b. September 18, 1889 in St. Ives d. July 27, 1956 in Laona Wisconsin USA.
According to Michaeline, her mom had a brother also named Robert Davis b. abt. 1883 England.
According to the notes that Michaeline gave me, it sounds like he would be the Robert that was married to Mary Peak and had the following 5 children:
Robert; Joseph; Audrey; Catherine and William.
I need to know any and all information that obtains to Robert Davis and Mary Peak. I can't find any of my notes at this current moment. So is Robert Davis that was born in 1894 that married Mary Peak the son of Robert Davis and Alice Perkins or is he the son of Thomas Davis and Mary Cocking??
This is all soooooo confusing at times.... Too many Robert etc....
Any help is much appreciated to get to the bottom of my problem.
Thanks, Amy
