  4. 5.  Freda Alice DAVISFreda Alice DAVIS Descendancy chart to this point (1.Hezekiah1) was born 9 Sep 1915; died Jul 1986.

    Other Events:

    • Residence: Akron, Summit Co, OH
    • Census: 1920, 1930, Southwest District, Doddridge Co, WV

    Notes:

    Identified in obituaries of E. Wilson Osborne and W. Frank Osborne as Mrs. Freda Haught of Akron, a surviving sister. But she was identified in obituary of Frank's sister Rella Osborne Snider as Mrs. Harry (Freda) Haught of Akron, a surviving foster sister, and she was identified in obituary of Annetta "Nettie" Cole Osburn as Mrs. Harry (Freda) Haught of Akron, a surviving foster daughter. It would thus appear that Freda, whose mother died in 1919 when Freda was just 4, was raised in the family of Jacob M. and Annetta "Nettie" Cole Osburn. She was listed in their household as a lodger in the 1920 Census. Relationship between the Davis/Britton and Osborne/Cole families, if any, is not known. Confusingly, the obituary of her foster sister, Mary Osborne Gaston, states that she was predeceased by "three sisters, Rella Snider, Freda Haught and Freda Osborne." No birth record for Freda Davis was found in Doddridge County.

    Census:
    In 1920 listed as a lodger in the household of Jacob M. Osborn, and in 1930 as a boarder in the home of Jacob's widow Annetta on Lower Run Road.

    Freda married Harry William HAUGHT. Harry (son of William Columbus "Will" HAUGHT and Lucy Mae SUMMERS) was born 5 Jun 1906, Oxford, Doddridge Co, WV; died 16 Aug 1972, Akron, Summit Co, OH; was buried , Greenlawn Memorial Park, Akron, Summit Co, OH. [Group Sheet]
