*The 1900 census indicates that Rebecca had 6 children with 4 living. The 1910 census confirms that Rebecca had 6 children, but it is unclear how many were living in 1910. The 1900 census lists a daughter, Lucy A. DAVIS (b. FEB 1872), but Lucy was not listed in the 1880 census. However, the 1880 census does list a daughter, Nancy M. DAVIS (b. about 1875). Clearly the true identity of these two daughters is unclear, but Nancy M. was possibly her daughter Matilda.
