==================================

"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 48, No 48, p 768, Dec. 1, 1892.
At the home of his youngest son, A. Judson Davis, of Long Branch, Neb., Nov. 18, 1892, of old age, Mr. Calvin Davis, in the 85th year of his age.
The deceased was born in Harrison county, Virginia (now W. Va.). At the age of 22 he was married to Lydia Maxson, daughter of Deacon Simeon Maxson. The couple then moved to Ohio and settled in Clark county, and afterward in Shelby county. September 1, 1864, they moved to Iowa and lived one winter at Welton and then moved to Tama county and lived until Sept. 10, 1867, when they moved to Long Branch, Nebraska, where Mrs. Davis died Oct. 19, 1871. Here Mr. Davis has since lived. At 22 years of age he professed faith in Christ and united with the Middle Island Seventh-day Baptist Church. When moving from one vicinity to another he usually united with the church of his faith and practice. He was a member of the Long Branch Seventh-day Baptist Church. He leaves one daughter, the wife of Elder U. M. Babcock, and five sons, of whom only the daughter and two sons, George W. and A. Judson, were permitted to be with their father in his sickness and minister to his wants. His eldest son, Jacob M., lives in the state of Washington, James B. lives at Kansas City, Mo., and Leander S., at North Loup, Nebraska. He was the last son of his father's family to die, but he leaves one sister, Mrs. Mary Knight, who lives at Garwin, Iowa. Funeral services were conducted by Eld. U. M. Babcock, and words of comfort were spoken from Job 19: 25. A large assembly gathered to pay their last tribute of respect to one whom they had long known and loved.
