Daniel Webster Davis, also called "Rockingham" Davis, left his home home in Starr, NC (Moore County) in his early teens. Its not known why he left home at such a young age. Daniel's left arm was cut off in a saw mill accident (date unknown). He moved to Rockingham, NC and then later to Rock Hill, SC sometime after the birth of his youngest child Fonnie. Daniel opened a meat market in Rock Hill, SC in 1903. Steaks sold for 7 to 10 cents per pound and sausage 10 cents per pound! His son, Archie Foster, helped out at the market and delivered meat to customers in a croaker sack.
