Do you think this could be the same guy? The age is right and I think they have the same chin. David HolmesUnfortunately, that isn't him. In the article: "The" David Holmes is an LA guy and graduated from Beverly Hills HS. I found this same guy. I realize that the geographical details aren't quite correct, but...it just says he grew up in Napa Valley. *Maybe* he could have moved to BH during high school. There is a David Holmes on Classmates from the class of 71 of BHHS. The picture of him on Classmates does match. But, in an article I found about the theater teacher, it gave some photos through the years and IMO, the facial features could match older versions of the pics we have from the teen mags. I dunno??? This guy seems to be the correct age. Also, sometimes those teen mags do change some biographical details. As we know they have a few different birthdays listed for him. I know that a lot of times girlfriends/wives were never to be mentioned so that the little girls could crush away too. Haha. Stuff like that. I sure as heck hope someone can find him, I've been reading about this for a few years on here I think!   ETA: I seriously just emailed the reporter of that article, who will probably think I am a lunatic. I'll let you know if he answers back. |

I have been reading up on this David Holmes possibly being our David Holmes. It is a good lead and I appreciate you contacting the author of the article. Davis is well reguarded in his community and has helped many of his students further their dreams of acting. He is now involved in getting the Santa Babrabra Shakesbeer festival off the ground.
If he is our David, I wonder how he will react to news that a internet message board full of women have been searching for him for years.

I verified his birthday on ancestry.com. I don't think that is the same David. I was hoping to locate the mother or fathers obituary. |

I know we have all sorts of information which seems to indicate David Holmes is his actual name... but is it? Stage names were and still are commonly used. So maybe his name isn't even really David Holmes. I know it is an unlikely supposition as there is a David Holmes listed on classmates.com and there is parental ancestry info The thought just occured to me.

Or...he may have later changed his name. Wouldn't it be crazy if he did and is an actor we have known under a different name?

I could have been imagining it but on the old board didn't someone who knew him join to add a post about him and they were also wondering? I would hope that person would have known his real name if they knew him. Funny thing is I wasn't even around for tiger beat, it must have been a slow pea day and i clicked that thread and it became a mystery to me  |

Maybe he was really Alan Smithee? But that is weird that he is nowhere to be easily found. |

Per Ancestry.com, when David was under 2 years old, his name was on a ship passenger list along with his father, mother, and sister. I don't think he would have already had a stage name then? |

I don't think he would have already had a stage name then I thought it was an unlikely supposition as there was a high school graduation date and evidence of parents with the same name. So, we know where he was as a toddler or baby, but where is/was he as an adult? |

Bump this thread.
With all the great sleuthing abilities by the peas, why can't we find out what has happened with the elusive David Holmes?

LOL.. this is the first time I have seen this since the original... I was like.. this is ringing a bell. This dude is like my ex-boyfriend.. cannot be found at all. (Yeah I have tried to find an ex boyfriend... just to see if I can see what he looks like a million years later).. but he is just a elusive.. which drives me nuts in this day and age. HA... just FYI, I don't spend hardly any amount of time on this.. just once and a blue moon.. |

I still find articles and pinups on him. Still don't really know who he is.

His name stuck with me all these years, I’ve even made references to him IRL. I didn’t remember the specifics of the thread though and would have guessed it was at least a 4-pager. I hope someone finally finds him.

I found a David Milton Holmes, Sr in Memphis Tennessee I did too, but there's a professor originally from Los Angeles who's also now in Memphis - a little suspicious that the databases combined them. |

From the link you posted: "Their daughter Julia was born on November 2, 1949. On March 14, 1951 their son David was born and sadly died the next day." There is no mention of another son born in 1953. |

There isn't but there is definitely a David Milton Holms to same maiden name mother born in CA 1953 - ancestry has his birth record. I'm guessing name David is very important to them. |

I once dated a David Holmes, who is a minister. Last I knew, he lived in Colorado.
Not this guy from the search in 2015.

I'm not up to date on the sleuthing, but I thought of you all when I was doing some office clean out at work last week.
I put aside a box of cancelled concert tickets to shred, and happened to notice that one order was under the name of David Holmes! 😯
