The story of Harry Euban Davis

Harry Euban Davis lived a life rooted in family and community. Public records and memorials identify him as a husband and father of three children from Marshalltown, Iowa. In the late 1970s he took on a part‑time role as a jailer with the Marshall County Sheriff's Office, a position that reflected a willingness to serve locally and support the county’s public safety work.

Those who knew him would have recognized a man whose life centered on everyday commitments — to family, to work, and to his neighbors in Marshalltown. Contemporary memorial listings note that he was survived by his wife and three children; that family connection is the clearest, most personal record that remains in public sources. His name is also included among those honored by Iowa law‑enforcement remembrance lists, which preserves his memory within the community of officers and families who mark lives lost in service.

Public documentation about Harry Davis focuses sparingly on biographical detail beyond his family ties and service role. That limited public record nevertheless confirms he was a real person whose life mattered to relatives and colleagues. For his family and those who remember him, Harry’s life is more than the brief public notices — it is the quieter story of shared mornings, household rhythms, and the ongoing presence of a husband and father in his children’s lives.

Though only fragments of Harry’s everyday life appear in accessible public records, those fragments are enough to affirm his place in a community and in a family’s memory. This page honors that human presence: a man who loved his family and served his community, and whose name is preserved with respect among Iowa’s remembered peace officers.
