Davis Biography of Atlee Harrison Davis 4. ATLEE HARRISON DAVIS (FLOSSIE E.3, THOMAS HENRY2, WILLIAM W1) was born March 12, 1912 in Logan, Ohio (Hocking Cty); 31, and died November 21, 1986 in Crawfordville, Fla; 31. He married LOUISE ARNETTA HUGHES1 June 20, 1936 in Logan, Ohio (Hocking Cty); Quality: 01, daughter of HARRY HUGHES and IDA HOPP. She was born August 21, 1915 in New Straitsville, Ohio (Perry Cty); 3, and died November 30, 1975 in Columbus, Ohio (Franklin Cty); 3. Notes for ATLEE HARRISON DAVIS: Description: Ford Motor Company, Detroit, Michigan around 1930 Description: White Castle Systems, Columbus, Ohio Description: General Motors plant, Journeyman tool & die maker, Columbus, Ohio for 34 years. He liked to hunt. He took me hunting with him in the fall, down around his boyhood haunts in Logan, Ohio. He was an excellent marksman. I don’t remember him missing his targets very often. He had a large collection of very well kept rifles. He was meticulous in their care. This was a major focal point in his life, being meticulous. It showed in his personal and professional life. He very much liked tooled items, and appreciated good workmanship. He had a large collection of well kept die making tools, which were in near new condition several decades after he bought them for use in his work. There was a rumor he had two nick names at the GM Plant in Columbus, Ohio. Sanitary Sam and Mr. Clean! That was because he never left his machine at the end of the day unless it was thoroughly cleaned and all his tools cleaned and put away. He was a member of Local 969, UAW for decades. He was also a pilot. He learned to fly in early adulthood. There was a small runway on top of the hill west of Thomas Henry’s farm. He would fly out of it on joy rides frequently. He lived in Columbus, Ohio, on the west side for several decades. This put him in close proximity to work. He then moved south of the city for a decade or so, around the town of Five Points, on ten acres of forest at the edge of a valley. He retired to Crawfordville, Florida, on property owned by his third wife until his death in the mid 1980’s. He was raised by his grandfather. His grandfather, Thomas Henry Davis, owned a large farm on Davis-Chapel Road, south of Logan, Ohio, in GoreTownship, off of Route 595. Atlee worked on the farm, and worked the saw mill Thomas Henry ran there. This farm was sold to George Walker, who married Velma Davis, Thomas Henry’s daughter, both of whom lived and worked on the farm until their deaths in and around the 1970‘s. They are buried on the hill,north of the family home, Davis Chapel Cemetery, Davis Chapel Road, Gore Township, Ohio More About ATLEE HARRISON DAVIS: Burial: November 25, 1986, Crawfordville, Fla; Quality: 31 HSCH: High School Attenda: January 01, 1928, Carbon Hill High School, Hocking County, Ohio; Quality: 31 This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/ohfiles/ File size: 3.4 Kb ______________________________ ------------------------------ X-Message: #6 Date: Mon, 24 May 2004 06:22:31 -0400 From: Archives To: OH-FOOTSTEPS-L@rootsweb.com Message-Id: <200405241022.i4OAMV4k022324@genrecords.org> Subject: Oh-Hocking Co.
