Round Prairie Township

History of Callaway County, Missouri, published in 1884 by the St. Louis National Historical Company, Chapter XII, pages 249-252. Transcribed by Kris Breid.

Early settlers:

Delilah was the daughter of James Davis (b. Bourbon Co, KY, March 17, 1794) and Frances nee Davis (his cousin). They came to Missouri in 1822, and first settled in Boone county, where they remained one year, and located in 1823, about two and a half miles south of Bloomfield, in Callaway county. Mr. and Mrs. Davis have had fourteen children, two of whom died in infancy. Mr. Davis is still living, and is very active for a man of his great age, being now in his ninetieth year. He is perhaps the oldest man in the county. William J. Hawkins, Ambrose Fry and James Suggett came to the county during the same year, 1823, and located in Mr. Davis's neighborhood.
