The names of the children of Uriah Davis I's will are the same as the name of the family of Davises that came to Rowan/Iredell County, N. C. area. He is thought to be buried in the Davis Family Graveyard located on the mountain side above what is known as the old J. Warren property and is accessed by Pisgah View Drive off Pisgah Highway at the church of God. Records of an annexation of extra land to Iredell County show that Uriah Davis owned a a farm along the Catawba River around 1800."1
