Mrs. Davis was a daughter of my Great-Great-Grandmother Pearson's brother, J. Oliver Newlin. She was a conservative Quaker and lived at Sophia, Randolph Co., NC. Her family have been some of my favorite relatives, especially her youngest daughter, Emily Davis Pugh (1922-2004), who gave me this picture. Emily's death on December 19, 2004 was one of my most regrettable among the many deaths I have experienced in my genealogy contacts the past decade.
