Hi Ark - Do you have the name of his father and mother? Was James B. PORTER married? If so, do you have the name of his wife?
I can find no listing for "Peoria Bedding and Mattress" in my 1945 or 1955 Phoenix city directory nor my 1975 Phoenix metro phone book. It may certainly well exist, just couldn't find it in these 3 references.
