Davie was born near Pontiac, in Livingston County, Illinois, October 13, 1855, a son of John T. and Hannah (Hoskins) Davie, and died at Dunlap, Iowa, April 17, 1929. He came to Crawford county in 1861 with his parents and received his early education in the district school of Boyer township and continued at home until his maturity. In 1876 he began farming on his own account in which he was highly successful, making a specialty of stock raising. After retiring from the farm, he became manager of the Farmers Co-operative Lumber Company of Dunlap. He was one of the organizers of the company and was its first president. Mr. Davie also was one of the organizers of the Kiron Mutual Insurance Company, which was since taken over by the Farmers Mutual Fire and Tornado Insurance Association of the same place. He served as director of the latter company until his death. On October 29, 1876, Mr. Davie was united in marriage to Miss Mary Elizabeth Fullerton, a native of Ohio, and five children were born to this union. The mother of these children was called by death on April 29, 1904, and Mr. Davie was subsequently married to Mrs. Florence (Painter) Griffith. In political affairs Mr. Davie supported the democratic party and took an active part in its campaigns. He served in the Twenty-second, Twenty-third, Thirtieth and Thirty-first Iowa State General Assemblies, and also was elected to fill a vacancy, in the Twenty-ninth General Assembly, discharging his duties most effectively. In 1885 he was elected a member of the Board of Supervisors of Crawford County and has also held different township offices. Fraternally he was connected with the Masonic and Odd Fellow lodges.
