Anson Davis, was born in 1784, in Oxford, Conn., and most of his life was spent on a farm. He was a very well-educated man for that early period in this country, and taught school successfully for several years when he was a young man. He filled numerous local positions of honor and trust and possessed the admiration and respect of his associates in a marked degree. He lived to a good old age, his death occurring in 1868. To himself and wife, whose maiden name had been Sally Pruden, there were born ten children. Four of the number survive. Marcus is still carrying on the old homestead; Homer is engaged in running a machine and wagon shop at Winnemucca, Nev.; Martha E. is the wife of Edwin Pruden, of West Haven, Conn.
