Hi Susan,

According to the 1910 U.S. Federal census for Lee Co, Fl., the parents of Grace May Davis were Thomas (age 25 ) and May (age 22 ) Davis, married 5 years. Also in the household was baby Lela Adaline Davis, age 5 months. They lived in the area known as New Prospect, which is now part of N. Fort Myers. They were living next door to William H. and son, William D. Jones.
