CHARLES DAVIS

     deceased, who was a stepson of George W. Blair, came to the Wenatchee
country in 1883. He soon found a quarter section of land to his liking, but
since he was a minor he could not exercise the homestead right. However, his
friend William Miliken held the claim for him under the preemption act, and
executed a relinquishment in favor of Mr. Davis when that young man reached his
twenty-first birthday. In 1889, he was married to Miss Nancy McClure. One child,
Isaac, was born to this union. Mr. Davis passed away in the spring of 1890,
after a brief illness; a young man of promise and many friendships, his death
was a serious loss to the community.
