MAN OF MYSTERY
We actually know very little about Aaron Davis and I call him a man of mystery. At this time, we do not know if he married or had any descendants. We do know that he did live very near the 'known' children of John Davis Sr. and Abigail Duncan between 1830 and the late 1840's in the Hannah's Branch area of Smith Co., TN that would later become District 12 of DeKalb Co., TN.
