Family Photos

Allice Reynolds has sent these Davis family photos. She says, "Phineas Davis and Ruth Root obtained a US land patent from President James Buchanan in 1859; NE 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 8 in Township 86. Phineas and Ruth resided in Jones county with their children until their deaths in 1878 and 1892 and are buried in Kiburz cemetery according to records on this website. Earlier cemetery records located in Des Moines stated Scotch Grove Cemetery, or a small unnamed cemetery across the road from Scotch Grove. I have actually been there."
