Amos Davis was born to William Mitchell Davis and Gertrude Gray on July 21, 1921 in Clay County, Kentucky.

When Amos was a child, he used to hang around with his brother Jimmy and his uncle Alvie Gray. The three of them were best friends who did everything together. Though Alvie was their uncle, they were all born within a few years of each other.

During the depression, Amos and his younger brother James used to sell newspapers on the street corners of Hamilton, Ohio to help their parents pay their bills.

On May 20, 1942, Amos married Elizabeth Muncie. Shortly after that, he enlisted in the Army and fought in Europe during WWII. Amos and Betty had 3 children, Janet, Michell, and Nancy. Mitchell died in 1997 and Nancy in 2000.

When the war ended, Amos, like most of his brothers, went to work at Champion Paper in Hamilton, Ohio. He worked at machine #9 for 41 years before retiring in 1982.
