Fess Parker - Davy Crocket or Daniel Boone?
Fess Parker as Davy Crockett, "King of the Wild Frontier" (1955 - 1956, Walt Disney)but he also played Daniel Boone on tv 1964 - 1970). Do you remember him as Davy Crockett or Daniel Boone? Almost every boy had a Davy Crockett coonskin hat because of the Disney series.

And in the Daniel Boone tv series, Mingo was played by Ed Ames (originally of singing fame.) When Ed Ames appeared on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, he did a demonstration of tomahawk throwing with a human (man) cutout. Johnny tried it and got the cutout right in the crotch. Everyone broke up and it ended up in many highlight shows.

I am researching Tasker, Jones, Bowen, Rees of Wales; Kroetch, Chartrand of Canada; and Boggs, Ferguson, Smith, of West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky. Also Steeples of Kansas. And on my mother's New England roots - well, too numerous to name since she descends from Mayflower passengers as well as Dutch East India captains who arrived with their families before the Mayflower landed further north than was planned. :)
I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Director). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in Campbell (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our current Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
