Greetings Gene Seekers, I am researching my Davis family and would like to know if someone could help me identify these people and events?
I found this info in the cemetary rec's at Bradley Co, site.
Davis,Charles Willie b.8-1-1933 d. 5-16-1967
Davis,Willie B. 5-1-1887 d. 10-28-1967
Davis, Lucy M. 8-7-1900 d. 5-16-1967
Can anyone tell me what happened to them and is there a newspaper article about the deaths or events?
I believe these people are my ancestors and would like to know more about them.

Also does anyone have information about William Ricks, if my information is correct my grandfather was accused of assult with intent to kill against this man. I don't know all of the details but I understand that this incident would have taken place October 27, 1921 in Bradley Co., or at least that is where the papers were processed and served and he was apprehended after a warrant for his arrest was issued. The people listed below are listed as witnesses:
William Ricks, Vera Bohanan, Fred Young, and Dr.Reinhart. Was Dr. Reinhart a African American doctor?
Does anyone have a copy of the details of this and if so would you please share them and help clear up a family mystery?

I would also like to know about Sinkfield Davis and/or Sinkfield Gilbert both of whom I have located on census rec's. I am descended from both the Davis and Gilbert families. My dad was Will Davis Jr. of Ashley, Hamburg, AR; his dad would have been Will or Willie Davis (wife Lucile Davis) and his dad would have been Nate or Nathan Davis. We are told that my grandfather was born in "Kansas" whether Kansas or Kansas City, Missouri is unknown at this time.

Can anyone assist with a court case filed in March 1919 by Will Davis against Delmon Cogbill? Will Davis won his case in the amount of 143.50 and all of his cost's, he was represented by Nixon, Levine, and Nixon. The case was argued in the Jefferson Cicuit Court.

Any help in this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, J.Davis
