This one was interesting as I could not find an A.B. Davis in the

the death certificate for Oscar and it had an A.B. crossed out and
Oscar V. written above the crossed out letters. Oscar was born in
Illinois son of Harlan J. Davis and Sarah Price both born in New
York. Oscar is buried in Greenwood Cemetery and Smith's
