John O. Davis, one of East Liverpool’s [Ohio] popular young
business men, is a native of Pennsylvania. He was born at Hookstown, July
29, 1890, and is the son of William Zane and Mary Elizabeth (Johnson)
Davis.
William Zane Davis, deceased, was born at Frankfort, W. Va. He attended
Scio College, where he studied pharmacy. Later he was interested in the
oil business in West Virginia. He died in January, 1915, and is buried at
Georgetown, Pa. His widow, a native of Hookstown, Pa., lives in East
Liverpool. Nine children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Davis, as follows:
Thomas, died in 1905; Cora, died in 1913, was the wife of James Bond, who

John O. Davis was educated in the public schools of East Liverpool, and

Taylor & Knowles Pottery Company. He remained with this concern until
1923, when he purchased his present business, which is known as the Man O’
War Billiard Parlors. Mr. Davis’ place of business is well conducted and
widely patronized. He also carries a fine line of cigars, candies and
refreshments.
