bulletRobert Rea Davis was born in 1917 in Chicago, Illinois. There was brain damage at birth and Bobby was somewhat retarded. He died on Aug 30 1998 in Pensacola , Escambia, Florida. Bobby died in a local hospital after a recent illness. He was buried on Sep 3 1998 in Holy Cross Cemetery, Pensacola, Escambia, Florida. Funeral services at Waters and Hibbert Funeral Home followed by a Funeral Mass at St. Michael's Church with the Very Reverend Father Richard Bowles, VF, pastor, officiating. Bobby and his family moved to Pensacola about 1926. He attended St. Michael's School there, but did not progress normally so he had to be held back. He did not finish school. He was remarkable in many other ways. He learned to drive early and was an excellent driver. He did not marry and never seemed to be capable of working except in part time jobs. His family lived for many years at the "Barn" located on Jackson Street between Baylen and Barcelona. The Barn was originally a stable on the F. C. Brent property and later became a Naval Officers club. At his mother's death he and his dad, Will Davis, lived there until the death of Will. Bobby remained there until recently when he moved to a retirement facility to spend the last few years of his life.
His father, early in Bobby's life, was the stage manager at a Chicago Theater where several people were killed when a candle flame snaked up a curtain. This led to his keen interest in fire fighting and to a later job. He was befriended by the Pensacola Fire Department and spent lots of his time there as sort of a mascot. He was presented a uniform shirt which he wore proudly. He did chores and even drove to the fires. He was proud of one of his jobs when he was hired by a company to inspect fire extinguishers.
He also loved the Police Department and spent many hours there helping out and and even going out on patrol with the officers.
Bobby was up on all the happenings in Pensacola and was the town gossip, one might say. He loved to talk and he spoke very clearly and with good grammar.
He knew everything about his own family. his father was director of the Chamber of Commerce, his paternal grandmother, Jesse Bartlett Davis, and his mother were opera singers. Most everyone knew Bobby Davis and he knew them by name. No one left Pensacola or returned there without Bobby being aware of it seemingly instantaneously. Parents: William Jesse Davis and Florence Turtle.

bullet Drausin De Rocheblave was born on Jun 14 1823 in Big Bayou, Escambia County, Florida. He died on Nov 1 1876 in Big Bayou, Escambia County, Florida. Here are some interesting notes on Paul, grandfather of Drausin. Paul's brother has quite a bit of Canadian history If you do a search on the internet for Rocheblave, that is who most of the info is about. COUNT PAUL DE RASTEL DE ROCHEBLAVE ISABEL GOUDEAU Paul de Rastel de Rocheblave, is described as having been a man of about five feet four or five inches in height, with a rather round, full face, and brown hair; he had square shoulders, and a good military bearing Paul de Rocheblave had a tumultuous career. He landed in New Orleans in 1751, when immediately he was inducted into the military department of the French colony as an ensign. Soon thereafter the colony under Governor de Kerlerec seems to have been plunged into a state of revolt, with special blame attached to the commandant, de Rocheblave, and in the report that de Kerlerec makes in this connection, he mentions seven captains, two lieutenants and four or five ensigns, one of whom is Paul de Rocheblave. Under Commandant de Rochemore the subaltern officers were accused of forming a cabal against the governor and of spreading sedition in the colony. There were charges and counter-charges, with Paul de Rocheblave as one of the most active of the insurgents, of whom Captain Grondel of the Second Swiss Regiment and Lieutenant Manderville, known as the firebrand of the party, were leaders. Under Grondel, riotous meetings were held in propaganda against the governor was disseminated. Lieutenant Mandeville, on July 22, 1759, broke up an assembly which had met to endorse certain measures of the governor and council and sought to investigate a revolt against de Kerlerec, depicting him as a traitor who was endeavoring to found his fortune upon the ruins of the colony. The cabel, under these leaders, stuck closely together, with Paul de Rocheblave as one of the most active trouble-makers. When the cabal realized that de Kerlerec had become dangerously aroused against them, Paul de Rocheblave and seventeen others drew up a statement of defense. This closed with the statement: ". . . We trust, sire, that you will focus your attention on our just supplications, which we have had the honour to draw up for you, and we beg you to believe that the sole motive which was the cause of our uprising, during such a critical time, was to prove to our King our everlasting fidelity, our zeal for his service, and also our regard for the welfare of his colony." But the governor was forced to take further measures to suppress the cabal. Grondel, who had already been ordered to prison by Commandant Velant was confined to his estate by de Kerlerec. The same sentence was passed on Mandeville, punishment light enough, since it merely amount to an exemption from military service, thus affording the offenders ample time to look after their affairs, and keep their Negroes at work. Paul de Rocheblave, however, gave such particular trouble that de Kerlerec put him in prison. Yet, out of respect to him and his family, he permitted his wife and children to take up their quarters within the prison four or five days after de Rocheblave's arrest, where they were very comfortably established. Moreover, the doors of the prison were kept open so that anyone might visit him, and he was also allowed to enjoy exercise out-of-doors. During the course of his confinement, de Rocheblave stubbornly refused to show moderation in speech or actions. The more de Kerlerec attempted to coerce him, the more unmanageable he became. He wrote voluminous letters to Paris denouncing the Governor. Previous to all this, however, in fact only two months after de Rocheblave had been condemned to prison, his liberty was offered to him upon the understanding he held his peace and behaved himself like a loyal subject of the colony. But de Rocheblave refused, and when the same offer was made to him two months later, he refused as obstinately again. Yet, finally becoming convinced that the governor was seeking the first opportunity to send him back to France, he asked for permission to be escorted to Pensacola, the Spanish post. This was granted to him, and he was given a letter of recommendation to the Spanish Governor. Paul de Rocheblave left his prison June 14, 1760, but aroused by the cabal, he returned to New Orleans the same day, protesting that his return was by order of the King. And with renewed vigor he persisted in his cause against the governor of the province and stuck to his prison by his own choice, up to the time he was sent to France with the rest of the offending officers. Under Major Belle Isle the revolt was continued and a movement was launched to form a party opposed to the governor. The dispatches from France gave de Kerlerec full power to deal with the insubordinate officers. He could either send them back to France, or suspend the execution of the order and grant a pardon to anyone who showed repentance. For six weeks he delayed putting into effect the order of deportation, without finding on their part any sign of penitence. To the contrary, they became more obstinate, and circulated reports that the orders of which he spoke were false, that the governor did not have enough credit to obtain such power, and that he was the same as a lost man. At last de Kerlerec gave the order of deportation for the following officers: Bossu, Grandchamp, Grondel, de Rocheblave, Brontin, Mandefille, and d'Hauterive. The revolt against de Kerlerec must have been general in the colony, for when it was urged that he include others for punishment, he declared: "If I sent away all the offenders, whom would there be left in the colony?" But de Kerlerec had not counted on the powerful influence of members of the cabal. Upon their arrival in France, Mandeville, Grondel and de Rocheblave combined with Madam de Rocheblave and her followers to further attack upon de Kerlerec. Captain Grondel was thrown into the Bastila May 9, 1765. Paul de Rocheblave, and Marigny de Mandefille, followed Grondel two days later. But the detention of these prisoners was not for long. Friends and relatives soon succeeded in turning de Kerlerec's victory into defeat, for they were liberated on May 30 of the same month. Among those instrumental in securing their release were: Madam de Berulle, Mons. Dubuque, Mons. de Latouche Treville and the Bishop of Damas, a prelate of the Pope. So it would seem that the members of the cabal must have been to some extent justified in their revolt. Certainly, right or wrong, their courage and their determination not to retreat in their fight, facing banishment and imprisonment, indicate devotion and loyalty to their King. For on the other hand they were offered freedom and favor of de Kerlerec by retraction. And the fact that de Kerlerec was recalled from America, and was tried and exiled from Paris, goes to prove justification of the cabal against the governor of the French colony. Count Paul de Rastel de Rocheblave married Mademoiselle Isabel Coudeau, daughter of Monsieur Francois Coudeau and Madam Marie (Pascal) Goudeau. They had two children: I. Adelaide, born 1765, married Peter Alba. The Alba family traces it's descent from Spanish and Scottish Houses, with the Duke of Alba as an ancestor. Peter was Spanish vice-consul of Pensacola in 1809 and also connected with the John Forbes Company. II. Francis, born in 1760, married Josephine Philibert, continues the line.

I have a copy of a great letter that Paul wrote while in prison requesting his flute and giving his side of the story about the imprisonment. Just let me know what you are interested in. Take care Marilyn
