A farm house that once belonged to Miles Davis' father has been restored by a Millstadt couple, and will be featured in an upcoming program on the Home and Garden cable network, according to this story from the Post-Dispatch. The current owners, Nanci and Bill Cuningham, knew Davis music and even owned some of his records, but were unaware of the connection to the Davis family when they bought the property back in 1987. Those who have read Miles' autobiography may remember the farm as one of the trumpeter's refuges when he was trying to kick drugs in the Fifties.
