The reference given does state minor married davis' daughter, but http://archives.law.virginia.edu/records/mss/79-8 says it was davis' sister martha (there was no daughter martha), https://books.google.com/books?id=-omPLYeCtsQC&pg=PA179&lpg=PA179&dq=john+b+minor+wife+martha&source=bl&ots=QJgTLLbLd0&sig=MGSESDbl0k1wuV-PqXe9D8jU7Zk&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjBwNmLoZrRAhVFMSYKHcw7BMMQ6AEIHzAB#v=onepage&q=martha%20macon%20davis&f=false also gives the name martha, and the minor family tree http://www.ourfamtree.org/browse.php?fid=326784 gives her birthday as 1810, only 8 years younger than davis. if there are no objections, i'll switch and note the "daughter" as an alternate.
