Event Notes Note (1) Location of death reported by Russell Lee Davisson as Millstone River, Princeton, NJ, while Jeff Whittaker reports death as occurring in Aqueduct Hills, Middlesex, NJ. Both sources give date of death as 1759. Note (2) July 17 1806 was the last recorded land conveyance by Obadiah Davisson, and Russell Lee Davisson uses that as a reference point for Obadiah's date of death. But Jeff Whittaker reports Obadiah's death as July 17 1786 in Clarksburg, WV. Note (3) Birthplace probably Middlesex Co, NJ, per Russell Lee Davisson, but Jeff Whittaker reports it as Monmouth Co, NJ. Note (4) Spelling sometimes appears as "Annias."Name Index
