Now they are looking at This man who was born in Tennessee. Posted by Bryran and a follow-up by George.
The post from Bryran:
The only William Davis I have a record of who comes anywhere close to the man you inquired about served in Co. M, 4th Arkansas Cavalry, U.S. Volunteers. According to the regimental rolls, he was born c1828 in McMinn County, Tennessee. He enlisted at Fayetteville on February 28, 1864. It would have a fairly short journey from Johnson County to Fayetteville.

If we can find out if William was born in McMinn County, Tennessee, Then we have our guy.
