According to Dr. Charles Waldroup, his great-great-grandfather, Ben Davis, came to Sevier County during the Civil War. He did not believe in slavery and sympathized with the North. Because of this he was not welcome in Atlanta, so he moved to Sevier County. He is buried in the Webbs Creek Cemetery where the markers show: Ben P. Davis, 1825 - Oct. 5,1901; P.A.
