A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for Agnes Davis
From the Parks manuscript:
About the year of 1762 or ’63 Walter and Martha Davis had a daughter born who in early infancy was subject to epilepsy, by which her reasoning powers were dethroned, and she became a charge to her family. By his will, her father set apart a fund to be put at interest for her support. The fund was ample, and her brother William, who was executor of his father’s will, took charge of her until her death; which did not occur until the year of 1825.
Dr. Parks did not give her name, but Walter Davis's will gives her name as Agnes. She is not mentioned in her mother's will.
