- 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.

- Date Created
- 1941
- Summary
- In 1937 Bill’s parents and six of their eight children moved to Newark, NJ seeking a better life. They settled in the Ironbound section of city where his grandfather had migrated years earlier. Eighteen year old Bill was left behind in South Carolina with his sixteen year old brother, Jimmy, because they had jobs and the family needed their earnings to help them get started with their new life. A year later, Bill and his brother joined the rest of the family in the Ironbound, then referred to as “Down Neck.” Three years after moving to Newark Bill married Lula Davis, a Newark native and recent East Side High School graduate. Dr. Anasa Maat, Newark author/publisher and Newark Public Library Trustee, is a product of their union.
