Notes for Cinderella DAVIE


U.S. and International Marriage Records, 1560-1900
Cinderella Davie
Gender: Female
Birth 1825 TN
Spouse Name: John Jefferson Pelt
Spouse Birth Place 1814 NC
Marriage Year 1841

In the 1910 census, Widow Cinderella Pelt is living in the household of her
daughter Ida Laura Pelt McSwain in Nevada County, Arkansas.  I note that the
birth certificate reports Cinderella's birth state as Tennessee, but by 1910
it is either reported or recorded as Alabama.  Since the marriage certificate
and supposedly the information would be more accurate, being closer to the
time of birth, I will report the birth state from the marriage record.  Other
early censuses also report Cinderella's birth in Tennessee.

Notes for Anna DAVIES


In the 1900 census, Annie was reported as 52 years old, with a birth date of
January 1848.  This is a match for her husband's reproted birth date and age
as 1848 and 52.  But in the 1930 census, she was reported as only 72, instead
of 82.  The 1940 census is consistent with that, reporting her age as 82. 
These later censuses would make her birth in about 1858.  (William died before
the 1930 census.)

1900 Federal Census, Fremont County, Colorado, 7 July, Florence Precinct,

Phillips, Abbie Dau W F Oct 1896  3 Colorado Wales Wales
Phillips, Clyde Son W M May 1900  0 Colorado Wales Wales

The dates of immigration and number of yerars in the US indicate that William
and Annie married in the US, presumably in Fremont County, Colorado.  Annie's
husband William J Phillips died before the 1930 census.  In that census Annie
wsa reproted as a widow.  Annie's daughter Abbie had moved into Annie's home,
with her four children, after Abbie's husband Robert A Boyd had left them. 
Their residence area were reported as Precinct #29 of Fremont County,
apparently on Annie's farm.

1910 Federal Census, Greene County, Missouri, 22 April, Ash Grove, District

Phillips, Abbagail [sic] Dau F W 13 Colorado Wales Wales [b abt 1897]
Phillips, Clyde Son  M W 10 Colorado Wales Wales [b abt 1900]

Age reports for Annie are not consistent in the 1900 and 1910 censuses.  Note
that Annie is exactly the same age in both censues, age 52.  The 1910 census
is consistent with the 1930 and 1940 censues.  But William's matches in both
1900 and 1910.  But 1920 is closer to 1900.  1920 age is 4 years younger
relative to 1910.  The difference then between 1920 and 1930 is only 5 years.

The birth date for Abigail in 1900 matches the birth date on her other
records, so seems to support the accuracy of the 1900 census on other
birthdates.  The other children's match within one year.

Lacking other records for the other children at this point, the conclusion is
that Annie misreported her age, then stuck with the younger age for the next
two censuses.  We notice that in this era overall, focus on ages was not as
specific and exact as it became inthe progress of the 20th century.

I found that Annie's gravestone reports the birth year according to her
revised, later, date in the censuses, as discussed above.  But the manager of
her memorial on Find a Grave reports the birth date reported in the 1900
census, as we also concluded in this genealogy.

Notes for Addie Flora DAVIS


"My grandmother Addie Flora Davis was born in Oct 1915 to Marlin Davis and Ella
Bivens Davis.  Same dad. different moms.  He is running back and forth between
these two women having kids with both of them.  Ella is a full 20 years older
than he is and is a colorful character to put it mildly.  Married 3 times, but
I can find no record of her and Marlin being married although she took his
last name."
--  Joy Elaine Fowler, Ancestry Messaging to Orville Boyd Jenkins, 20 July
2016

Family sources report that J D Tugman had a wife named Flo.  This would match
records for Addie Flora Davis Maxwell, who was the third wife of J D Tugman. 
Her death record reports her full name as Addie Flora Tugman, with maiden name
Davis.

Addie has not been found in the 1920 census.  In 1930, she and her younger
sister Alta Davis are living with their older brother Joseph Goodwin and his
family.  This probably means their mother died earlier.  Ella Bivens Davis has
not been found in the 1920 census, either.  In 1920, her son Joseph was a
boarder with another family working for them.

With the surname of Maxwell from later records in California, I found Flora in
the 1940 census, with her husband Jeff Maxwell and two children across the
border in LeFlore County, Oklahoma.  From the age of their only child here, it
appears that Flora and Jeff married about 1934.

Later records document her presence in Kern County, California, where she
later married her second husband, J D (Jack) Tugman.

A record in the Bakersfield city directory appears to report her under the
name Mrs Flora Davis Maxwell.  There is no information given in the listing
indicating she is the widow of a Maxwell (a common designation in these
directories), so perhaps they were divorced.

I have found no divorce record in California or Nevada.  If the divorce
occurred in Oklahoma, no record of it will be found online.  In 1960 the two
boys reported in the 1940 census would be about 20 and 24 years old.

U.S. City Directories, 1821-1989
Bakersfield (Kern County, California) City Directory 1960, p 467
Maxwell Mrs Flora Davis Prsr [Presser] Sparkel Clns [Cleaners] r Edison

Residence here is reported only as Edison.  This is a town near Bakersfield. 
There are several entries for people named Maxwell.  Nearby is a Clarence A
Maxwell with his wife Opal.  This is the name of one of Jeff's brothers, so
this is likely the right Clarence A Maxwell.

There is a James D Mixwell who could be Flora's son James.  Insufficient
details are included in these directories to determine the exact relationship
of everyone with the same last name.

"Edison (formerly Wade) is an unincorporated community in Kern County,
California. It is located 7.5 miles (12 km) east-southeast of Bakersfield, at
an elevation of 568 feet (173 m)."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison,_California

I found Jeff Maxwell's death record in Kern County, California, indicating
they were in California together.  His death was before the reported date of
Flora's marriage to J D Tugman in 1966.  But I found no entry for a Jeff
Maxwell in the Bakersfield city directory for 1960 where we found the apparent
record of Flora.

Notes for Catherine DAVIS


I have found no marriage record for Catherine's marriage to Hugh Kerr McSwain. 
She was his second wife.  The youngest child reported in the 1860 census,
Peter W, is 2 years old.  It appeared that this was Catherine's first child. 
But I find that some genealogies report that Peter's mother was Hugh's first
wife Adalissa Hopper.  I have also failed to find any death record for
Adalissa.

James McSwain 18 M Farm Laborer born No Carolina [b abt 1850]
John T W McSwain 16 M Farm Laborer born No Carolina [b abt 1844]

In 1870, Hugh is alone in the home, which would lead us to think Catherine has
died.  But her grave says she died in 1879.  She likely was ill at the time of
the 1870 census.  It must have been an extended illness, because no children
are in the home.  The children must have been placed with family relatives.

Hugh's daughter Rachel, whose husband died in 1862 in the Civil War, is
enumerated as a second family in this household.  There is also a 16-year-old
Hannah McSwain keeping house in Hugh's household whom I have not identified. 
No child of Hugh and any of his wives matches this child in any census.  She
should have been in the 1860 census.

This Sealy Hanley matches other information indicating that Celia (Sealy)

other genealogies report one of her married names as Hanley, but often do not
have the order of the marriages.

The Moulder tree has the names as extra names for Celia but does not have
these husbands in the tree, nor report marriage dates.  It also reports that
Celia was Isom's only wife, marrying him in 1850, which is patently false. 
Records of both Celia's prior marriages and those of Isom rule this out.
