EMILY CARL DAVIS (1922-2013)
Emily Elizabeth Carl was born on March 9, 1922 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the older of the two daughters of Elizabeth Ross and Pitt Carl, Jr. Within a few years, the family moved to Philadelphia, where Emily's younger sister, Missy (Mary Lillian), was born on February 26, 1926. In 1928, when Emily was 6, the family moved to Bronxville, New York, in Westchester County, when her father went to work for the Bell Telephone Company in New York City. Emily spent the rest of her childhood in Bronxville, first at 16 Field Court Road from 1928 until 1932 or 1933, then at 7 Summit Avenue from 1933-1938, and later at 24 Sturgis Road from 1938 on. Emily went through all her school years in the Bronxville public schools and graduated from Bronxville High School in 1939.
