1 thought on “Davis In The American Revolution”

  1. Looking for information on Philip Davis who came to New Jersey in 1770 with his wife. They declared their love for America and were run out of New Jersey by the Tories s. He moved to Pennsylvania and had a healthy family. His son Henry is my ancestor. I have very little information on Philip.
