Phillip Davis

1762 - 1829  (67 years)

• Name	Phillip Davis
  Born	1762	North Carolina
  Gender	Male
  Died	19 Jan 1829	Rutherford County, North Carolina
  Notes	The birthdate and place of Phillip Davis is not currently known although itis believed to be Brunswick County, Va. In 1790 he was a resident of Union county, SC. By 1800 he and his wife Nancy had moved to Rutherford County. He is probably the younger brother of Simon Davis and either followed him or the family, as a whole, moved to Union Co., SC just prior to the Revolutionary War. No records are available that indicate Phillip served in the War. The family information on the group sheet is primarily based on a will recorded in the July 1830 court of Rutherford Co. taken from excerpts of wills and Miscellaneous Records 1783 -1868 by James E. Wooley and Vivian Wooley. I believe it to be this Phillip Davis based on the 1800 census listing where only one Phillip Davis shows up (w 1 son and three dau.), the 1820 census shows three Phillips; one should be Phillip, Jr. and the other would be the son of William F. Davis and grandson of this Phillip. The date given for Phillip's death is the date of the will. The will is located in the NC State Archives; Farris is probably James Farris. The executors of the will are Jacob Davis, Phillip Watkins, Thos. Logan, and William Davis. Witnesses are; James B. Watkins, Wm. Watkins, and John Simmons.
