1t is now stated that evidence has been found
showing that JEFF, Davis, instead of being born
in Christian county, Kentucky, in 1908, was
born in Stockbridge Mass. Persons who claim
to be well informed say that "Jeff" was born
in old Stockbridge, Mass, in 1908, and removed
to Kentucky with his father, when small
child. His father is said to have been wheel
wright by trade, and the house where he lived
on one side of the road, and the shop where he
worked on the other side, are well remember

State of New-York on the It'll day of March, 1866
tsee Senate Journal 1866, page 300, by Henry R.
PiersOn:
