Welcome To This Blog

My in-laws passed away a few years ago leaving us with pictures owned by an aunt. This aunt had no children but was married several times. She left pictures of herself, friends and what we believe to be three of her husbands whose last names were Neal, Dodson and Davis.

Of these we know that Del Davis was a twin and had several children with a previous wife, some of whom we have pictures of. If you recognize any of the pictures posted here (please check back–more will be added), please leave a comment with your name, address, phone number and the name of our aunt which has been edited out of the pictures. Comment moderation has been enabled and NO COMMENTS will EVER appear on this blog! The comments are strictly for the author to see.

We really want to locate the people and relatives who are in these pictures and have run out of other avenues to do so.

So, if you have family names of Neal, Dodson or Davis in your heritage, please look at the photos and book mark this page to come back to.

Thanks,

The Authors

George Davis Brother of Del Davis

This is a picture of Delmar Davis’ brother George along with his obituary. If you know or are related to this man, please leave a comment in the comment section. It will not appear to anyone except the owners of this blog. We would like to contact you.

Dodson Barber and Beauty Shop

The first two are pictures of my husband’s aunt and her beauty school graduating class. She went from here to work with Charles Dodson in Jasper, MO in his barber shop. I’m not sure of the timeline but she and Charlie were married for the last two or so years of his life and seemed quite happy in Jasper.

The pictures of the women in front of the shop include one of his aunt and another woman whom we do not know.

If  you know either the aunt, Charles Dodson of Dodson’s Barber Shop, Jasper, MO or the other woman in the picture OR any of the women in the graduating class pictures, please leave a comment. NO ONE will see your comment except the blog administrators.

Charles Dodson

These are the last pictures I have of Charles Dodson. They lived in Jasper, MO where he was a barber and she was a beautician. I have no idea how they met but they seemed to have had a good life–for the two years and a few months that they were married.

I will be posting one more Dodson post and that is of the aunt’s beautician’s school graduating class and also another woman in front of Dodson’s Barber Shop in Jasper, MO.

Again, if you know any of these people, please leave a comment. Nothing you put in the comment will be visible to the public–only to the authors.

Delmer Davis Part 3

Del and Aunt loved to travel and take pictures as evidenced by the number of pictures they left and by the diversity of places they were taken at. We have pictures of family at a place called Squam Lake, vacation pictures in Arizona, California and Florida and other unidentified places.

Del not only loved to travel, he loved to relax and that included fishing and swimming.
