Item #58 Johnnie Davis and others:
Johnnie Davis is the one in the WWI uniform. I do not know who the other people in the photo are. I came across a picture submitted by Nelsie Ramsey of a headstone for Johnnie Davis (B October 24, 1895 - D January 5, 1926). I believe I am Johnnie Davis' great-granddaughter. I was pleased to find out that the names of Johnnie's parents are listed so my search can go further (since my grandfather - Howard Garland Davis - is deceased).
