    Marriagec 1779 Martin Davenport married Jane Browning c 1779 at prob Wilkes County, NC. 
    Notec 1780  According to the Pamunkey Davenports:

    "... Colonel William Davenport, son of Martin Davenport of Thomas (of Martin, Sr.), ... was badly abused as a 10-year-old boy by marauding Tories (Americans actively loyal to the King) in 1780 during the Revolutionary War. Coming upon the Martin Davenport's mountain homestead while Martin was away, Tories seeking to capture him took out their frustration on young William, his son.

    According to Professor Lyman C. Draper, the noted Frontier historian, in his authoritative Kings Mountain and Its Heroes (1881), William's beating was one of the incidents that so enraged the Over-the-Mountain Men, who had spent five years in constant warfare with the Cherokees and Shawnees sent by the British to attack the Frontier Settlements, that they gathered together and marched southeast over the mountains to totally defeat and capture the British and their Tory adherents at Kings Mountain (8Oct1780). The year had been a desperate one for the Cause of Independence. The Continental Congress had lost most of its Southern Army at the Surrender of Charleston (19May1780), then had lost most of what was left -- as well as bottom-of-the-barrel replacements scraped from the North -- at Gates' disgraceful Defeat at Camden (16Aug1780). The Kings Mountain victory restored flagging Patriot spirits and marked a turning point in the Revolution. William's father Martin Davenport was one of those Patriots who distinguished himself at Kings Mountain, and in its aftermath is credited for assuring that those Tories who had mistreated his son were properly punished. At a quickly convened drumhead court martial, the culprits were convicted -- and summarily hung."2 
    1790 Census1790 Martin Davenport was listed as head of a household on the 1790 Census. Based on age and gender, his household could have included.3 
    Death1815 He died in 1815 at Burke County, NC.

    Marriagebef 1706 Martin Davenport Sr. married First wife of Martin Davenport bef 1706 at VA. It appears that Martin had at least two wives. For research purposes the first three children are ascribed to a first wife.1 
    Marriagebef 1716 Martin Davenport Sr. married Dorothy [Glover?] 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.2,1 
    Residence8 Nov 1721  On 8 Nov 1721, Martin Davenport Sr. lived at St. Margaret's Parish, King William County, VA. Fragments of a lease and release executed by Martin Davenport identify his residence as of 1721. (Source: John Scott Davenport, 'The Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles').1 
    Note24 Mar 1724  A survey of land at this time for one Captain Thomas Carr located that tract by reference to land of Martin Davenport along the North Anna River in Hanover County. That land wasn't patented to Davenport at the time but must have been surveyed and marked in order to be used as a benchmark for someone else's survey. (Source: John Scott Davenport's 'Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles').1 
    Residence7 Feb 1726/27  On 7 Feb 1726/27, Martin Davenport Sr. lived at Hanover County, VA. Martin Davenport's patent for 400 acres along the south side of the North Anna River was issued. (Source: John Scott Davenport's 'Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles').1

(Source: John Scott Davenport's 'Pamunkey Davenport Chronicles') The will only named five sons and did not leave property to all of them (several were contingent beneficiaries only). This strongly suggests that other arrangements had been made during Martin's lifetime for other older children and the children benefiting from the will were only his youngest.1 
    Deathbef 2 Oct 1735 He died bef 2 Oct 1735 at Hanover County, VA. Martin's will was executed on May 24th 1735 and offered for probate on October 2 1735.1
