Would like to find the parents of Lieu JAMES REYNOLDS born 3-4-1757 South Kingston, RI. He married RACHEL PECKHAM born 1763 RI. They had seven children. Their daughter Mary married BENJAMIN HOPKINS about 1804. After RACHEL died 4-9-1796 in North Kingston, JAMES married EUNICE AUSTIN. They had ten? children. JAMES died 12-3-1846 South Kingston, RI.

Besides JAMES parents, I would like his obit and pix of his grave and RACHEL'S.

looking for answers on LEWIS "LEW" DAVIDSON b IA & others

LEWIS DAVIDSON was born 1872 Glidden, Carroll County, IA to WELCOME "WILLIAM" NATHANIAL & AUGUSTA BALLOU DAVIDSON. The family moved to Pierce County, NE after the 1880 census. LEWIS' mother died 1886. WELCOME remarried to ELIZABETH (born STRAIN) who had been married to a STRAIN, then CHAMBERLAIN, then DARNELL before marrying WELCOME.I have a lot of info on the BALLOU & DAVIDSON ancestors. The 1900 NE census is very wrong. WELCOME & lIBBY had been married 9 years, he in his second marriage, she in her fourth. They had no children together, the sons listed are his, LEWIS & CHARLES. LIBBY was born in OH not Canada. LIBBY had a son, JOHN CHAMBERLAIN...have info on him & pix. Have a pix of a teenage boy who is noted to be adopted son of WELCOME & LIBBY. These two pix are not the same boy. LIBBY'S divorce papers from DARNELL say she has custody of two male children & took back the name CHAMBERLAIN. Back of pix says CHAMBERLAIN, but in her death notice two sons listed, JOHN CHAMBERLAIN & HENRY DAVIDSON? HENRY DAVIDSON was WELCOME'S brother. Did he name his adopted son after his brother? WELCOME had two daughters with AUGUSTA. One is my ggrandmother, MAE HUBBARD, the other MATTIE HUBBARD. I have info on them and CHARLES. But after the 1900 census, LEWIS disappeared. What happened to him and who is the teenage boy? I have WELCOME'S obit from Pierce County, but where is he buried?
