Summary from Davy's book:

Linda and Davy got married after Talia was born, and 5 days after his dad died. Davy never got to tell him about Talia, and the only thing his dad knew was he was dating Linda. Davy and Linda went to Mexico and became Mr. and Mrs. David Thomas Jones on October 31, 1968 in Tijuana, Mexico.

Then they remarried again. Davy found out soon after that hewould be drafted. Yet Davy had the excuse that he was married with a baby, but the army didn't believe him. So he went to Winterhaven, California where Linda was born. On the Nevada border at a Baptist church on December 15th 1968 they were remarried. David Pearl was the best man and Talia stayed at home. After they were remarried and after Monkeemania had died down, another bundle of joy, Sarah Lee, was born.

The Chicken Story:

After they moved away from the bright lights of stardon Davy and Linda moved to a quiet house and Linda bought some chickens, and waited every day for them to lay eggs. But the chickens just wouldn't lay the eggs! So soon Davy got the idea to go to the grocery store every morning, buy some eggs and stick one under each chicken. Then when Linda woke up....WOW! The chickens had laid eggs. He did that for awhile....just because he wanted to see her happy. One morning though, the funny man he is, decided to put a FRIED egg under each of the chickens. When Linda found out she was mad and thew a vase at him. If I was Linda I would have been touched because it's sweet! What do YOU think?

The End:

They were divorced before the Point, and sometime around the Dolenz, Jones, Boyce and Hart era. The night of the Grammy awards they chatted about it, and were divorced around 1973. In his book Davy quotes, "There was something that came from Davy and Linda...and it was Davy Linda Talia and Sarah and I wouldn't change that for the world."
