This is the twenty-second book in this series on Maryland families. The author, already renowned for his works on the Beckwith, Bowman, Brandenburg, Browning, Burdette, Fisher, Fry, Fulks, Gue, Hines, Hurley, King, Lewis, Lowder, Maddox, Miles, Mullinix-Mulleneaux, Neikirk, Perry, Pratt, Purdum, Soper, Stottlemyer, Walker, Warfield, Watkins and White families, now turns his attention to the Davis families of Montgomery County, Maryland. The families surveyed in this work are not the descendants of a common ancestor. Although their origins can be traced back to several branches of an extended family tree, early connections are not readily apparent. Members of the Davis family are known to have arrived in America early in the Colonial period and in great numbers, both as free men and indentured servants. Thomas Davis (1613-1683) is reported to be the earliest American-born ancestor of at least one branch of the Davis families found in Montgomery County. He was the son of the original Davis immigrant, Captain James Davis (born c. 1575). Although Mr. Hurley has chosen to focus on Montgomery County Davis's, chapters are included on Davis family members in Frederick County and Prince George's County, as well as miscellaneous families and family members throughout the state of Maryland. The text is indexed for full names and includes an extensive bibliography.
Mr. Hurley's Our Maryland Heritage series continues with this book, which investigates the Duvall families, primarily of Montgomery County, but also includes family members found in other Maryland counties and elsewhere. This study began with the goal of providing information about the Duvall families generally found in Montgomery County and expanded to include information from a number of other sources. The data contained in this report has been prepared from information found in a variety of sources, including records found at the library of the Montgomery County Historical Society, such as personal family files, obituaries, church and cemetery records, published collections of data, published genealogies of related families, census and court records, and personal contacts with living descendants. Individual chapters are devoted to: Mareen Duvall, The Immigrant; John Duvall; Mareen Duvall, The Younger 1680; Benjamin Duvall 1684; Hammond Duvall 1785; Grafton Duvall 1714; and Miscellaneous Duvall Family Members. A bibliography and a fullname index enhance the text.
