There are conflicting records on file for this death. (1) The death record at the Doddridge County Court House identifies the deceased as Albert Gene Davis, born Nov 4 1928 at New Milton, son of L. T. Davis & Dortha Bee, died Mar 2 1930 at Market (New Milton), age 1y 3m 24d, cause of death tumor of brain, burial at Middle Island Creek. (2) The corresponding death certificate on file at the WV Dept of Vital Statistics identifies him as Albert Glen Davis, born Nov 4 1928 in New Milton, son of L. T. Davis & Dartha V. Bee, died Mar 1 1930 in New Milton, age 1y 3m 27d, cause of death tumor of brain, burial at SDB Middle Island. Although the correct middle name has not been determined, examination of the county-level record reveals that the Mar 2nd date was intended to indicate burial date, with the Mar 1st death date being inadvertently entered on a line pertaining to another person's burial date. "Davis - The Settlers of Salem WV," p. 163, reports his middle name as Gene, but incorrectly states death date as Feb 1930.
