Davis Family Relationship to Tom Hanks

While researching a family link to the Hanks Family, and ultimately Abraham Lincoln, I found that we, of my Davis line generation, can also call Tom Hanks our 5th cousin, once removed!

Information for this website is based on some 90 years of research, starting in the 1920s and 1930s with two of my great grandmothers Rozina Phebe Fairchild Davis and Ella S. Gregg Bean. Sources are published here if I have them, however there is much that has not been proven and has yet to be verified. As time goes on, I continually update, edit, and correct data when mistakes and/or new sources are found, and new data has turned up. I am sorry to say that those who have copied large and small chunks of my data over the years, which I have subsequently corrrected, now have and are passing along inaccurate data to others who copy them. Please verify any information you might use for your own records as there's a lot I can't guarantee to be correct. I would appreciate hearing if you find any connections to your own research, would like to share information, or about any errors or omissions you find in my data.
