Davis - McCreight
I found 2 young McCreight boys, John 7, and James 5, living with Benjamin L. Davis family of 7 in Calhoun Co, MS in 1860 [from 1860 Federal Census]. Benjamin's family composed of himself working as mechanic, age 42, b KY?, Catherine, 25, b MA?, Martha, 15; Benjamin Jr. 14; Mary, 10; Josephine, 6; Benjamin [again?] 10 months -- all b MS. Would appreciate any information on why these boys [orphans?] were living with the Davis family. Thanks
