Andrew J. Blevins and Susannah C. Davis were married on 10 July 1864 in Hempstead Co, Arkansas, by Thos. Prince, MG

Hempstead Co, Arkansas Marriages, p47:

Dorothy Miller lists the following children for Andrew Jackson Blevins and Susannah C. Davis:
1. Andrew Jackson Blevins md Nannie Jackson
2. Johnnie Blevins md Liza [--?--]
3. Lucy Blevins md Elick Calicutt
4. Martha Johns Blevins md 1. Alec Dees 2. Frank Marion Fenley

I'm not certain this is the same A.J. Blevins who married Sarah Jane Biddix on 23 July 1850 in Hempstead Co, Arkansas. One researcher says the Andrew Jackson Blevins who md Susannah C. Davis was born 21 Sept 1847. This Andrew Jackson Blevins is the son of Armistead Blevins and Celia Cranford. If this is correct then this Andrew Jackson Blevins 2nd md Frances Dunlop on 25 Dec 1872 in Independence Co, Arkansas.
