Comments on: American Revolutionary War: Minuteman Isaac Davis was Shot During the Battle of Concord http://www.historynet.com/american-revolutionary-war-minuteman-isaac-davis-was-shot-during-the-battle-of-concord.htm From the World's Largest History Magazine Publisher Wed, 22 May 2013 12:23:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Glenn Davis http://www.historynet.com/american-revolutionary-war-minuteman-isaac-davis-was-shot-during-the-battle-of-concord.htm#comment-1105861 Glenn Davis Mon, 13 May 2013 01:09:21 +0000 #comment-1105861 To George, John and Lucius.... Hello, So am I related to him, and maybe to you! you as well! you are related to: Dolar Davis , Simon Davis, Simon Willard, Margery Willard, Mary Blood, John Davis and by marriage.... related to President John Adams and John Quincy Adams.....as my paternal grandfather married Quincy Adams great grand daughter....Capt Isaac would have been a great grand son 4th or perhaps 5th generation from Simon Davis and MaryBlood. Background info on these people: Simon Willard took part in the Endicott expedition discovering lake Winnipasachii in NH. He also rescued his Nephew Simon from Indians and this account was recorded by James F. Copper in the Last of the Mohecans. The town of New Braintree performs an annual re-enactment every summer where actors put out a flaming cottage roof started by actor-rampaging Indians. Uncle Simon rides to his rescue with a troop of militia. Google it! Mary Blood was the daughter of James Blood, brother to Col. Thomas Blood who attempted to steal the Crown Jewels from the Tower of London. James, brother to Thomas, headed to the colonies and had a flock of kids...Mary his daughter married Simon Davis..... I believe Simon or his son was communicating with Cotton Mather of Salem on the matter of witchcraft, Simon Willard's decendants founded the Willard Clock Co. which may have morphed into another company along the way to oblivion. But it was in business for many years and built many fine clocks. It's prime competition was the Ansonia Company. To George, John and Lucius….

We just found out that we are related to Isaac Davis as well! It's interesting because it sais that he did gunsmithing. I think it is all genetics. We are also related to John Moses Browning and ofcourse he was a gunsmither. My son loves guns and how they were made. And he is all into the history!! And the War. Just so cool. This is really neat!

I, would be the 6th great grandson of Isaac (my kids would be the 7th great grandchildren.) I believe Dollar was name # 594 inscribed at Ellis Island. Isaac had 4 children of his own and I can trace the line from there thru my children and would be happy to share what I have.
