Joy, I can't sort out all the Davenports/Devenports. I had lunch with Edna Crumpton Thomson in 1997, and she showed me the grave of Albert Pinckney Crumpton at Oak Hill Church cemetery in Greenville Co., SC. We have not been able to connect to this Crumpton line. Copy to Crumpton List and Davenport List. Sincerely, Dan Crumpton > >> -----Original Message----- > >> From: Joy S Carey <jcarey2234@juno.com> > >> To: gen@thomson.net <gen@thomson.net> > >> Date: Monday, February 14, 2000 3:20 PM > >> Subject: More Davenport questions - Dan- I just found an obituary my grandmother had saved. Lidie Boyce Crumpton (md James Talmage Crumpton) daughter-in-law of Mary ElizabethDavenport, had a Boyce cousin, John T. Boyce, who'd married Hettie Davenport. Again, these people were members of (and buried at)Fork Shaols Baptist Church. Is this one big Davenport family? Maybe that link would help... I don't have the dates on John T. and Hettie Davenport Boyce, as the obituary is not dated (cut out of the paper). They were of the generation of James Talmage, wife Lidie, and James's sister, Edna Crumpton Thompson. I also found the obituary of Mary Elizabeth Davenport Crumpton, bd 18 Mar 1874, dd Aug 1953. She was the daughter of William Davenport and Jane Roberts. She lived in Greenville County all her life, and is buried at Fork Shoals Baptist Church. I'd love more Davenport info. One more question - any relation between the two Thompsons thatmarried into the Crumpton family? Edna Crumpton married Archie Thompson, and her sister, Ellie, married Houston Thompson. Edna is currently living with Ellie's son. Thank you! Joy The above was sent to Dan Crumpton, email gen@Thomson.net

Hi there! Don't know if we have the same folks or not, but a couple of the names you listed are in my family tree. I.E. Mattie Davenport, (born between 1900 and 1935) daughter of Sansbury Davenport and Margaret Sawyer, she married Fred Edwards. I also have several James Davenports. Will you please email me directly at hudgy@aol.com and we'll compare? Thanks, Mary

To John: You might try contacting the Salem/Cumberland County Genealogical Society for some help. They might have cemetery listings, as well as marriage, census and land ownership information. You might be able to find Abigail's parents this way. Good luck. MargoBelle

To all, Does anyone have a listing of the children of Rice Davenport, (1797 - 1870) who married (1) Lillian Musick (2) Rebecca Clay. Rice's parents were William (of Fayette) Davenport and Mary Bullock. Earl Pantier

Davenport, was wondering if he had any brothers or sisters? I'm looking for the family of my ggrandmother, her name was Heneritta Davenport McClain McNace. She appeared in Story and Boone Counties in Iowa in 1883. She had been married to a Mr.McClain first and had two sons and a daughter. Don't know what happened to MrMcClain, but she married my ggranfather a John McNace/McNeece. She was born in 1846, and died in 1892 after the birth of a daughter. Would appreciate any help!

Don't think we'll match up but here's my Davenports from that time period: Elisha T. DAVENPORT born 28 Jan 1825 in Kentucky to Marshall Booker DAVENPORT & Levicie COOK/ DAVENPORT both of Kentucky. They migrated to Illinois later. Elisha was 1 of 2 persons who founded Crane Creek, Mason Co. Ill. & he married Sophia BALES at that location 4 April 1849. They had 10 children all born at Crane Creek: John W. born 1850 Benjamin F. born 1852 Elisha Thomas Jr. born 1854 Elizabeth Ann 1856 Henry 1857 Robert Lee 1861 Pleasant G. 1862 Marshall 1866 James P. 1869 Harvey B. 1872 Elisha was killed in a farm accident 25 Mar 1888 He had property all over a 4 state area that the kids moved to. Marshall Booker had a brother named Henry. there were others but my computer short circuited & then crashed and when all was said & done I lost all 3 of my back up disks so have been slowly re-entering everything & haven't gotten to the papers showing his siblings yet. But anyway Marshall Booker DAVENPORT's parent were Presley DAVENPORT & Susannah GLOVER of Charlotte Co. VA.

I know he had relatives because I am one of them and I am not alone! I am not having any luck going backwards so, let try this the other direction. James married Sarah (Sallie) J. Turner on May 18,1848 in Callaway Co., Mo. and they had the following children: York Davis Davenport Mattie Davenport James B. Davenport William Davenport and possibly a few more, but not sure yet. York Davis Davenport married Martha Minor Lansdowne on July 3,1886 and they had the following children: Everett James Davenport m. 1st Blanche ? 2nd Mabel ? Charles Albert Davenport m. Anna Ford Jesse William Davenport (my grandfather) m. 1st Flossie Putnam 2nd Vera Tunison Edgar ? Davenport m. Billie ? Ada Viola Davenport Hicks m. James Hicks Susan ? Davenport Wermer m. Harry Wermer Anna Agnes Davenport Brandon m. Frank Brandon Mary Josephine Davenport Putnam m. John Putnam If any of these names ring a bell or you think you might know something, I would love to hear from you. Note: Jesse William and Mary Josephine's spouse's were brother and sister. Other names possibly researching this line include: Turner, Rawlings, Lansdowne, Putnam, Carey, Hayden, Hicks, Brandon, and Wermer. Of some intrest, but no meaning, the name Davenport ranks 509th in the list of names found in the U.S. Martie Durbin Harris

Hello My ancestor William SMITH married Abigail DAVENPORT abt. 1762 in Salem/Cumberland Co. NJ. Can anyone help me with parents and siblings of Abigail? Thank you John

Brand new site but it's really great. Drop by and add your ancestors to this newest aid for genealogy research.

Thanks for the information on the book, The Davenports of Colonial Virginia. I will go your suggested route to find it. Concerning direct replies, you most certainly are right that they should rather be put out for all to see. To be honest, being new at this Davenport site, I have not figured out how to access it to read the replies. Thanks so much,...Jim Birkitt

Ancestry.com has a free database for the next few days listing over 7800 men form Indiana who served in the Spanish-American War around 1898. To search the database, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/inddbs/4305.htm But hurry--there are only a few few days left! I found: Ruel E. Davenport from Anderson, IN, and Frank N. Davenport from New Castle, IN. Jane
