Welcome researchers! Welcome family! This site is a collection of genealogical information of my DAVIS ancestors, from many sources collected over many years . Some of the information comes from my own work searching databases, www, microfilm, books, and the like. Other information has been graciously passed to me from fellow family researchers and members. If you are a researcher, my hope is that here you will find a lead. If you descend from people recorded here, contact me, so I can add your lines. I am Victoria Taylor-True - Daughter of Mary Jane GARDNER and Keith Bremmen TAYLOR. My direct tree lines are HERE If you are related to the lineages listed please contact me.

Yeah that is a picture of me in 1983 in olden days attire. I know I was born in the wrong generation. I do so love the times of yesteryear.

Share information and help me fill our family Hall of Time. Time stands still for no man and our heritage grows daily. If there is a story or info you can share regarding family history or info please post it to the message board or email me to post it. I will be updating and adding new pictures and pages detailing each ancestor with a page, pictures and info. As time goes along I am sure I will get all caught up , but at this time, bear with me as I gather info and pictures to complete this major collection. Anything you have feel free to share, as I can use all the help I can get to complete this for future generations. Information is private on living persons, I will keep our info of current generation limited to names only. After one becomes an ancestor THEN the information will be used to complete that branch of the tree to branch.

      Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever-----Isaiah 30:8

      I saw behind me those who had gone, and before me those who are to come. I looked back and saw my father and his father and all our fathers, and in front to see my son and his son, and the sons upon sons beyond. And their eyes were my eyes. As I felt so they had felt, and were to feel, as then, so now, as tomorrow and forever. Then I was not afraid, for I was in a long line that had no beginning and no end. And the hand of his father grasped my father's hand and his hand was in mine, and my unborn son took my right hand and all, up and down the line that stretched from Time That Was to Time That Is and Is Not Yet, raised their hands to show the link. And we found that we were one....
