Greetings!

I've been researching Quaker Nicholas Davis, who died by drowning in Newport, RI harbor on 24 Jul 1672, for over 25 years, and I will soon be publishing a comprehensive biography about his life.

May I ask the managers to replace his death information with the date I've provided here?

Also, he was not born in Horsmonden. His birthplace is still in question: If he was a son of Dolor Davis, then I have his baptism date and place recorded in my newly released Dolor Davis research article at: https://books.google.com/books?id=IpBDEAAAQBAJ&newbks=0&hl=....

If he was not the son of Dolor Davis, then his birthplace, birthdate, and his parentage are unknown. His first verifiable is in Barnstable in 1651.

So, for the time being, it would be advisable to put "unknown" in the birth and parentage information.

His wife was Sarah (Ewer) Blossom Davis Clarke Walley. Sarah married twice after Nicholas died to Dr. John Clarke of Newport, and then to Rev. Walley of Barnstable. She was first married to Thomas Blossom.

His children were: Samuel, Hannah, Simon, Sarah, Thomas and Mercy.

Thank you!

Death date updated.

Before merging Sarah Walley to Sarah Walley can you add evidence for her identity please?

Sarah (Ewer) Blossom is showing as my “10th great aunt's daughter” & her profile has no references.

Thank you. I’ll also look for them but ….

Hi Erica,

I'm currently writing a lengthy biography of Nicholas Davis which includes the sources for Sarah's husbands and her death record to be published on Google Play books.

Next, I'll be writing bios for Nicholas' children follwed by a bio on Sarah Ewer. So, eventually we will create an accurate profile for Nicholas, Sarah, and Dolor Davis.

Thank you managing my Davis ancestors! ...Mike

Need more sources in the Geni profile. All I got is Mrs Sarah Davis married Rev Thomas Walley. I believe it but will others? What’s her death date and location?

Thanks again for managing my family's genealogy.

My future research papers and biographies, which I'll be publishing over the next few months, will have complete listings of all sources within the footnotes and endnotes.

So, eventually, we will have Sarah, Nicholas, and Dolor showing the most accurate profiles on the internet.

Greetings and Happy New Year, Erica....FYI:

After 25 years of researching my DAVIS ancestors, I have now published 3 research papers/ebooks that contain new discoveries along with copious footnotes and source information, which will allow you to create accurate family trees for Dolor, Nicholas, and Sarah (Ewer) Blossom DAVIS Clarke Walley.

To access these results, just "google" Google Play Books and, in its Search field, type in "Frank Mike Davis" to see all of these ebooks.

Kind regards,

Dr. Frank "Mike" Davis
