Mary Elizabeth Carter (Joseph, Thomas2, Thomas1) born 2 Dec 1721 married James Davis of Broadfield, Spottsylvania County, 25 Dec 1738. James Davis, b. 3 Nov 1719, was the 2nd son of Thomas Davis and Susannah Wyatt (?) Davis, of Stafford), and his wife Sarah Fielding (b. 12 May 1695, daughter of Edward and Hannah Fielding, or Northumberland County.) Since the publication of my Fielding and Davis notes in the Virginia Magazine, Vols. XI and XII, I have gathered a great deal more data from county parrish, and family records, and other sources, so will include herewith a connected sketch of the Fieldings. In my former notes, I omitted one entire generation, and made some incorrect deductions.
James Davis owned a plantation of 600 acres of land on "Plentiful Run", Spotsylvania County, which he called 'Broadfield'. In 1740 he built a story and a half brick house with dormer windows and great inside chimneys. This house was burned in Oct 1789, mentioned in a letter written shortly afterward to Thomas Davis by his Sister, Polly, but a quaint old pen and ink drawing made in 1788 by James Davis' son, Thomas, who removed to Kentucky later that year. Thomas, the younger son of James and Mary Davis, taught school after he settled in Kentucky, and his advertisement in the Kentucky Gazette of 31 May 1788 states that he was qualified to teach 'Reading, writing and Arithmetic, surveying and navigation, geography or the use of the globes, etc... He made his will 16 Feb 1765, probated 1 Oct 1765.
