Elizabeth Davis, wife of Samuel McCoy circa 1800, Virginia
From the book, "The McCoys: Their Story," by Truda Williams McCoy, page 241:
"Ezekiel McCoy, son of William, was born about 1775, his birthplace unknown. He may have married Nancy Davis on 7 April 1798 in Montgomery County, Virginia, with Jonathan Davis, Sr., as surety. It is possible, but not proven, that Nancy was sister to Elizabeth Davis, the probable wife of Ezekiel's brother, Samuel McCoy."
[... notes: 1. There is a marriage record for Samuel McCoy and Elizabeth Davis on 12 August 1802 in Tazewell County, VA. Tazewell County was formed from Montgomery County around 1800. There is also a marriage record for Samuel McCoy and Elizabeth Dawes on 12 August 1802 in Logan County, VA (now WV). It may be difficult to read the handwriting for Davis/Dawes--I have not seen original.The couple may have been married in the part of Logan County that was formed from Tazewell County, and, hence, the two records.
2. Jonathan Davis, Sr., was surety for the marriage of Nancy to Ezekial McCoy. This could have been her father, but this is not proven.]
