    Davis Davenport

    M, b. circa 1660, d. before 1735

    Notebef 1660  According to John Scott Davenport of the Pamunkey Davenports website: 'The major problem relative to identification of Pamunkey Davenport ancestry before Davis Davenport today lies in the family having emerged from a Seventeenth Century record limbo of an Indian reservation into a Twentieth Century Virginia records void. The [... early] records of New Kent, King & Queen, King William, Caroline, and Hanover counties, crucial to Pamunkey Davenport identification, have largely been destroyed by courthouse fires of one sort or another. ... Yet we know, by Virginia Patent records, that there was a Davenport presence (female) in the Pamunkey Neck as early as 1650, ... that as soon as the Neck ceased to be Indian in 1701 and King William County was created, there was a Davenport Path of some antiquity noted in several surveys, and that Davis and his son Martin were listed as small acreage freeholders (land owners) there in 1704. ... [T]he evidence is that Davis Davenport and his son Martin, whose presence in the Neck are proven, were of the pioneer yeomanry, who achieved by their own labor, and not of the Cavalier, great planter aristocracy who had indentured servants and slaves to do their work.1' 
    Birthc 1660 Davis Davenport was born c 1660. According to John Scott Davenport's Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles (see website: '[T]he two Davenports appearing by Time and Place in Virginia records most likely to have been Davis' immigrant parent were apparently single women, namely Hannah, transportee of 1650, or Anne, transportee of 1658. ... As uncomfortable as the thought might be -- although the America of the Twenty-First Century is more amenable in its judgmental morality to accepting such a possibility -- the Pamunkey Davenports may descend from a female immigrant ancestor, whose son became the patriarch of a family bearing the Davenport surname although his father may have had the surname of Davis. ... The possibility that Davis Davenport was the bastard child of either Hannah Davenport or Anne Davenport, given the lack of a male parental candidate, is real. If Martin was age 21 in 1704 (his appearance on a Quit Rent List was prima facie evidence that he was an adult), he was born 1683 or before. If Davis is accorded the same minimum of 21 years of age (25 years is accepted in formal genealogical estimates) before fathering Martin, then Davis himself was born c1662 or before. This scenario would fit Anne of 1758 comfortably. Assume older ages for both Davis and Martin, and the scenario would fit Hannah comfortably. The problem with both of the most viable male candidates for the honor of having been Davis' father is that each appears in the records uncomfortably late for either of the Davis-Martin age scenarios of John Davenport in 1668, Richard in 1677. Labored rationalization is required to force a fit for either. ...[T]he practice of giving bastard sons their fathers' surnames as given names also existed -- particularly where the father acknowledged the child. Hence, Davis Davenport, if born out of wedlock, may well have had a Davis father (there were a number of Davis possibilities early in or near the Neck in proximity to Hannah and Anne). ... We would note that Graves Family descendants claim Anne Davenport, born c1696, and who married Thomas Graves, as their matriarch, and believe and claim that Anne was a daughter of Davis Davenport. (Thomas Graves and his wife Anne play major roles in the Pamunkey Davenport chronology that follows.). Then too, Anne Davenport, transportee of 1758, was associated with land no more than four miles from where Davis Davenport first appeared in Virginia records thirty-eight years later (1696). The Bar Sinister scenario is speculative, but must be advanced as one hypothesis of Pamunkey Davenport origin.1' 
    Marriagebef 1682 He married wife of Davis Davenport bef 1682 at VA. Most likely at Pamunkey Neck in King William County. 
    Note29 May 1696  According to 'The Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles,' 'James Taylor, surveyor of King & Queen County, made a survey of 939 acres for Major John Waller and an adjoining 100 acres for Thomas Baker, which identified Davis Davenport’s Plantation and Landing on the Mattaponi River.' Note that this Thomas Baker is not the same Thomas Baker who fathered David Baker but the possibility of some connection is very strong.1 
    Notec 30 Mar 1704  Davis Davenport was listed on the 1704 Quit Rent Rolls for King William County VA, assessed for 200 acres.1 
    Deathbef 1735 Davis Davenport died bef 1735 at VA. The exact date of Davis Davenport's death is unknown. The last known reference to him was in a will by his son Martin in 1735.

    Dorothy [Glover?] Davenport1

    F, b. circa 1685

    Birthc 1685 Dorothy [Glover?] Davenport was born c 1685. According to the Pamunkey Davenports:

    "There are several Martin Davenport, Sr., genealogies circulating which identify his wife as Dorothy Harrelson, which is surely based on the facts that Paul Harrelson [Jr.] was a neighbor to Martin in Hanover, witnessed Martin's will, and was bondsman for Dorothy as executrix of the Estate. The Harrelson association with the Davenports was limited to those three events, all within a few months in 1735. The Harrelsons came to the Hanover neighborhood from a different direction and departed sooner and in a different direction than the Davenports. Two Harrelson wills were recorded in Hanover just prior to Martin's -- one of Paul Harrelson, Sr., and one for Harrelson, Sr.'s eldest son Peter. Both were detailed in identifying heirs, mentioned no Dorothy, no Davenports, and no one closely associated with the Davenports, and included no Davenport witnesses. There were no Davenports associated with the Harrelsons in their migration from Virginia or in their settlements in the Carolinas. Nor were there any Harrelsons associated with the Davenports in their migrations."2 
    Marriagebef 1716 She married Martin Davenport Sr., son of Davis Davenport and wife of Davis Davenport, bef 1716 at prob King William County, VA. Dorothy was likely a second wife and mother of only some of Martin's children. She may have been a Glover, and possibly a daughter of William and Mary Glover of King William County.2,3
