The last address I had for him (2939 Sorbus Dv, > Hamilton) is no longer valid. Thanks Sandi. But that is the address that is no longer valid - a letter I wrote to him there was returned "not at this address". I wondered if anyone had a recent address for him. His name appears on the World War II Honor Roll in the churchyard in Shandon. His wife Leona died about 18 months ago. Thanks if anyone can help. Alan Jones
Try contacting John Francis at the New London Cemetery, at Shandon. There might be a chance that he can guide you to a relative who might have knowledge...or, he might have info as to whether or not he might be buried in Shandon, if he has passed on. Easy way to go is to contact the United Church of Christ (the old Congregational Church) at Shandon....that is where we all went. I don't know that I personally ever knew or met Hugh or Leona, but I'm certain that my folks knew them well. Go on the Butler County website (rootsweb access) and there is a lot of info and contact stuff on there. Who knows, since my background is Shandon Jones/Williams/Griffiths, there is probably some sort of family relationship there, too, after all, everybody out there was kin of some sort. My foster sister, Marilyn Gast, seems to think that she remembers Hugh Davies being the son of Billie and Anne Davies. Billie owned a Marathon station a couple of houses away from our house. All of the local men gathered there daily, at one time or another, to play "pitch" (a non-gambling card game), drink pop, and swap lies. It used be a big deal for us kids to be there and listen to the tales. Marilyn thinks she remembers a nice-looking older guy in uniform when she thinks of Hugh Davies...and yes, there is a picture somewhere in one of my albums that has a picture of the Honor Roll, with his name on it. Billies old water well had the best drinking water in three states and I carried two galvanized buckets of that water home, for our family to drink, every day, once I got big enough to carry it. Billie also had an old (Plymouth, I think) car out in the back attached shed that he wanted to sell me for $50.00, but Dad didn't want to let me have it....afraid I would get in trouble or killed....and he was probably right.
