Charles resided in Washington, District of Columbia circa 1954.^(16565) This is a bit of history.^(16566) Charles Conyers II reported that "The very day I ran across your site (circa 2004), I stumbled upon the answer to a mystery that had been gnawing at my family for decades: I discovered information on my namesake, Charles DeValin. My father had spent much of his spare time trying to locate this man, only to discover that we'd all been living within a stone's throw of one another in 1954 in Washington, D.C., where DeValin lived in a home for old retired Navy officers during a period of time in which my father was stationed at the Pentagon. My grandfather (Roy Conyers) had served under Capt. DeValin around 1905 during a scouting expedition aboard the U.S.S. St. Paul, a cruiser that preceded the Great White Fleet around the world. DeValin was a medical doctor who served in the Spanish American War and saw action during the bombardment of Havana harbor. Lo and behold, there I was in front of my computer console, ironclad in my ignorance and piddling around a bit--and I found a PHOTOGRAPH of the great man on a Navy website! No wonder Grandpa named us after him: he, along with Grandpa, my father, and I all look the same. The similarity is stunning. My father was always stymied in his searches for Capt. DeValin because the Captain didn't have a Social Security number (since he retired before FDR initiated Social Security) and Dad didn't have the flexibility to launch inquiries on computers that we now have with the various search engines."
