 * John Poe was a prospector, and in 1870' founded the mining town Poeville, Nevada History Of Washoe County (1912) (lower half of page)  Peavine Peak - Geology, Plants, and Mining History Top page 3

 * he was a drummer in Guadalcanal Diary
 * A bio with that ref and that info would be speedy-deleted, or converted to a Rdr to the band.
