IGI has the following entries:
Pool F Davis, aged 16, born Canso, Nova Scotia, Canada, arrived St John, New Brunswick Jan 1924.

1930 census USA
Ridgefield Park, Bergen, New Jersey
Pool F Davis, 23, married, Canada English
Father born in England, mother Canada English.

I've found that they relate to the eldest son of Alexander Millar Davis (born Leyton, London or Wanstead, London 1882, died Yarmouth, USA 1947). I'd love to know who Pool Field Davis married, did they have any children, and what was his occupation? Is he yet another telegraphist?

He had 7 siblings, Francis Cook Davis born Nova Scotia 1908 and Alexander Millar Davis, born Nova Scotia 1909. The others were probably born elsewhere - maybe the US? Charles Mervyn, 1911, Dora Patricia 1914, Muriel Blanche 1917, Ross 1919, and one other, apparently still living, no details given. Any information very gratefully received! Thanks.
