Title: Arthur Davis 1884-1960, Semmie Wright Davis 1885-1974
Date Created: 1918
Summary: In 1915 Arthur Davis was living in Georgia with his wife Semmie and their three children when he became a target of the KKK because he had reportedly been disrespectful to a white man in the town where he lived. Semmie, fearful for her husband convinced him to leave the small town and go north to Newark, NJ where they had a distant cousin. Arthur left Georgia and went to Newark, settling in the Ironbound section of the city. After working for a year in a Newark lumberyard he was able to send for his family. Two years later in May 1918, the baby Arthur Davis Jr. was born in Newark. This picture was taken for Christmas 1918 to send home to relatives they had left behind in Georgia. Four more children were born to them in Newark including Lula Davis, mother of Newark author/publisher and Newark Public Library Trustee, Dr. Anasa Maat.
