Additional information
Son of Roger, buried at Cataraqui Cemetery, 1950 and Leora Davie, buried at Cataraqui Cemetery 1978, of Pueblo, Colorado, U.S.A. Roger Davie was a stone-cutter and foreman for a local cemetery monument company, the Arthur D. Marvin Company; circa 1926-42. James was a student from 1936 - 1939. In 1940 James was listed as a draftsman for a local manufacturing company, Gobatti Manufacturing Company in Pueblo until he enlisted in the RCAF. The Pueblo Junior College annuals, called Tsanti (Sioux for "behold") list him in 1939 as a 'camera-shy freshman' but he was not in any clubs, fraternities, band, sports, or activities.
