More than 10 years in the making, setting out the synthesis of decades of genealogical research, Dr. Davenport's extensive history of the Davenport family that had its beginnings in the Pamunkey Neck region of Virginia chronicles the events -- great and small -- that shaped the family from before 1650 to well into the 19th century. In more than 2270 pages, The Pamunkey Davenport Papers reviews the available records and provides reasoned analysis to place the births, deaths, marriages and lives of the descendants of Davis Davenport of Pamunkey Neck in the context of their times. The land transactions, the court proceedings, the rising and falling fortunes of the individuals, their associations with other families of the day, and their migrations from the Pamunkey Neck ! area throughout Virginia and onward into North Carolina and elsewhere is carefully documented. To explain the Pamunkey Davenports requires explanation of the collateral and related families, and descendants of those families will find much of value in The Pamunkey Davenport Papers. Among the surnames prominent in The Pamunkey Davenport Papers are ARNOLD, BAKER, EVANS, GAMBILL, GLENN, GRAVES, SMITH, TERRY, WASH, WOODROOF, and WOODRUFF [and many more]. The Pamunkey Davenport Papers contains three volumes of The Further Chronicles of the Pamunkey Davenports, together with five annotated supplements covering subjects as wide-ranging as the DNA results that place some Pamunkey Davenports in limbo to the records and analysis that separate the Pamunkey Davenports from other Davenport lines of the times. The cost of The Pamunkey Davenport Papers is $39.88, plus shipping and handling and, where applicable, sales tax. The net proceeds will go to the Davenport DNA Fund, for the benefit of all Davenports, whether or not Pamunkey. The Pamunkey Davenport Papers are on CD in PDF format.
