Show me some concho love ~

I looked into this quickly and found that Ernie had a son named David Edward, now deceased, who was a jeweler but not the same person as David K. Lister, of Alice and David fame. The obit for David E mentions the father Ernie and wife being in Prescott (where Ernie Lister the jeweler lives):

I saw that, and it confused me till I read further. The son died of leukemia while still a teen. So sad.

I found more info about it on a Native American leukemia bone marrow transplant page. It caught my attention, because I had student’s mom who had a transplant and is doing well now. Too bad they weren’t able to find one for his son.

When we were visiting with Ernie, somehow the discussion of hallmarks came up. Ernie uses script and David uses capitol letters, with or without first name letters. And as I remember, there was some association between the 2, although not close; wish I could remember :woozy_face:.

Yep, here is David’s hallmark.

Thanks to all for looking!

Concho belt. Still trying to figure out who is George. Each Concho signed with a cursive G and biggest Concho signed cursive ‘By George’

I don’t know if the is Concho - new to this



@LowChee It’s not Native American. It’s African, Tuareg or Niger most likely.
