Notes
- This tree corresponds to the information in Rev Morris’s November 1984 letter about the Davis/Lomax/Exley connection
- Confirms Esther Davis (b.1832) and Esther Lomax (b.1856) connections to the Exley family
- “A.E. Exley” = Albert Edwin Exley (1852-1918)
- The numbers at the bottom (8, 18, 4, 5, 7, 3, 2 = 29) likely represent grandchildren counts for each of Albert Errington and Lillian’s children
