OK so the family name is Davis. Do you have any of their given names?

Was the name Davies or Davis? On the same image I linked for Griffies/Griffiths are confectioners called Davies but none are Davis:-

It's probably wise to buy a couple of certificates so you have some names to work with, especially with common surnames, you have to be careful that you are following the right families. You might find occupations listed on the certificate/s tie in with shop keeper, maybe even an address.

Hello,

Do you have any names and ages for the Davis Family? Sorry if I have misunderstood or they have been posted. :-\
