First Christian Church Obituary for John Brown Davis

This is the Church Obituary for John Brown Davis. It is full of information, some of it helpful, some not so helpful. The first thing that caught my eye was the name of his widow, Lizzie Jane, now I have to find out because I have only heard her called Jane, so if anyone out there knows is this a mistake or was her name Lizzie Jane?

The next question that comes up for me is the names of the 4 daughters. I know who Mrs. J.F. Gibbs is, that's our Lizzie, the ones I am not sure of are: Mrs. James J. Dixon, Mrs Jess Cockrun, and Lillian Wilson. I am always learning something doing this, I have had this for years and never really studied it. I knew of Lizzie's brothers, but didn't realize there were sisters. Are these Jane's  daughter from before marrying John Brown? and what were their names?
