Sandra you are doing fab things for me, i wonder what that meant by person who will always know him.
-
Your very welcome - nice to break down some proverbial brick-walls.
The name of the person who will always know him - usually refers to the next of kin or near relative.
Here is the marriage:-
Philip Davis Feb 6 1904 Manhattan 3954
Lena Green Feb 6 1904 Manhattan 3954

It's a free index. If you want the actual certificate, it would cost money.

Hello Lyndy,
Not finding a link to Abraham - maybe just a coincidence - but amazing how many times it proves to be a relative. Saw Rachel on the Census with the first husband Jacon Rosenberg so I understand the 1910 Census - had 12 children and 9 survive.

Have tried to find a marriage record for Joseph J Davis and Rachel R or Rebecca R after Jacob died but to no avail, have tried her under Rosenberg and also her maiden name Levy, maybe her and Joseph never married.
