Davis and Dow cont.

So in my searches for more leads on the Davis Line, I did come across a book with a wealth of information:

Genealogical and personal history of the Allegheny Valley ..., Volume 1, by By John Woolf Jordan

It's available for full browsing in Google:books. Page 382-383 has information on Mrs. Lucy Marie (Davis) Cowan was born in Watkins, New York, the only daughter of Lot Barnum Davis and his second wife, Julia (Hudson) Davis. Lot B. Davis was the eldest son of Greley Davis, born in 1787, in Saratoga, New York, and Lucy (Dow) Davis, daughter of John Dow, first settler in Reading, New York, a member of the New York state assembly from Steuben county for three terms, and judge of the court of common pleas for forty years. He was a son of Benjamin Dow, of Voluntown, Connecticut, who served as sergeant in the revolution, son of Ebenezer Dow, one of the founders of Voluntown, one of the founders of the first Presbyterian church in Connecticut, elder in the same until his death, a justice of the peace under King George II. Ebenezer Dow was the son of Thomas Dow, who was in the Great Swamp fight, December, 1675, and grandson of Henry Dow, of Watertown and Hampton. Greley Davis served in the war of 1812, and his father, Alpheus, and grandfather, John Davis, both served in the revolution. Julia (Hudson) Davis was the daughter of Dr. Lemuel and Mary Treadwell (Woodruff) Hudson. Dr. Hudson served in the war of 1812-14 as surgeon, and afterward he was appointed brigadier-general in the New York state militia; he was the son of Asa Hudson, a revolutionary soldier, and his wife, Mary.

The book goes on to another few family tangents, and is showing Mary as the wife of Willis Cowan. The book has TONS of info on all of the Cowans. Though not my ancestors, I'm married in and might go ahead and add those lines when I get to the Davis' and Dows. I did add Lucy Marie Davis and husband Willis Cowan into NFS, but didn't take it any further right now. Back to combining.
