There were two William Davisons who immigrated to East New Jersey from Scotland in the 17th century and genealogists have not yet fully sorted them out. http://genforum.genealogy.com/davison/messages/1311.html and the follow-up messages appended to it are an excellent summary and anaysis of the issues.

Well there is at least one NJ Davison who has taken it to the next level, with DNA testing so now I'd say it's time to put up or shut up for those claiming lines that they are not related to. I haven't seen any other takers yet so I think I'll claim the rightful line, with is the Davison/Oliphant line.
