Do you have any more information to go on?? Also is there a profile link or URL to his profile on WikiTree that we could check out?  Sometimes their attached relatives may show up on a census report along with them, or a Find A Grave Memorial page may have relatives etc. 

 

Found two possiblities: a Sarah Long, and then a Sarah Hicks: 

*Virginia, Marriages, 1740-1850 Birth, Marriage & Death Name Alexander B. Davidson Spouse Sarah Long Marriage 23 Mar 1838 - Augusta, Virginia

*Pennsylvania, Death Certificates, 1906-1963 BIRTH, MARRIAGE & DEATH View Image NAME: Alexander Davidson SPOUSE: Sarah Hicks BIRTH: location

Unfortunately these are not the correct Davidsons.  Alexander Davidson was born in 1760 "near" Philadelphia.  He married Sarah (no last name).  In 1801 they moved to Venango County, PA where they farmed.  They had several children, but the only one we know of is Andrew Davidson who was born in 1809 in Venango County, PA.  Andrew married Mary Ann Wates, and had four children.

Alexander Davidson & his wife Sarah ? seem to have dropped from the sky into Venango County, PA in 1801!!!   Can't find a thing on either one.  Yikes!   I keep wondering if the last name is really "Davidson" or maybe "Davison", or who knows what else.  Any help is appreciated.
