6/25/2018: It’s summertime and a Peas thoughts turn to finding the elusive David Holmes!!!
Pea sleuths unite!
7/28/2017: With all the posts about peas who can quickly locate anything and nearly everyone, why can't we get an update on the elusive David Holmes? I bumped this thread.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was just flipping through channels and "Facts of Life" was on and I thought I spotted the elusive David Holmes. It was season 2 episode 8 where Jo was going to elope. But. Dang, it was Clark Brandon!!!
Update: Let's try again to find David Holmes. If any genealogy peas can help or peas with excellent locator skills.
This is what I could gather from Tiger Beat and 16 Magazine online:
David Milton Holmes
DOB: 9/18/53 ( I saw one place listed his DOB as 9/9/53, but everywhere else is 9/18/53).
Born in Los Angeles, California
Attended Beverly Hills High School.
Father: Milton Holmes (born 7/30/1907 and died 9/19/87). He was a writer and producer.
Mother: Laverne Ruth (Higham) Holmes (1923 to 1988)
Sister: Julia
He did have a brother who was born in 1951 but died at birth, not sure if a twin or a brother who died in early January of the same year).
UPDATE WITH MORE INFORMATION ADDED December 9, 2015:
David Milton Holmes, born 9/18/53 in Los Angeles, California
David attended Beverly Hills High School: he graduated in 1971.
His sister Julia was born in 11/2/1949
Father: Milton Edward Holmes:
Date of Birth 30 July 1907, Syracuse, New York
Date of Death 19 September 1987, Los Angeles, California
Milton Holmes was born on July 30, 1907 in Syracuse, New York, USA. He was a writer and actor, known for Mr. Lucky (1943), Mr. Lucky (1959) and Salty O'Rourke (1945). He died on September 19, 1987 in Los Angeles, California, USA.
Mother: LaVerne Ruth (Higham) Holmes 11/28/1923- 6/4/1988 (I have also found her name listed as “Nancy Holmes”). She was born in Utah
I found a listing on ancestry.com for a passenger list. The family traveled to London for father’s job on 12/8/1955 when David was just two years old. The father’s employer is listed as “Amexco”.
According to articles in “16” or “Tiger Beat”,
David was cast in “Boom Town Band and Cattle Company” TV show or movie
David was cast in a movie titled “Short Horn Gentry” with Robert Redford.
I could not find any record of these movies
He was also cast in the “New Dick Van Dyke Show”, but I couldn’t locate him in any cast list.
David is a fencer, gymnast, and plays tennis
