According to records of Newberry County, SC Elizabeth Davenport (daughter of Isaac Davenport) married Valentine Braswell. Valentine Braswell is listed in the 1800 Newberry County, SC census as Valentine Brazil, then in 1800 in Greenville County, SC as Val. Braswell. I am looking for more information on the Davenport-Braswell connection and also more details on Isaac Davenport. Thanks, Carl Braswell 6345 Brittney Lane Cumming, Ga. 30040

To all on the Davenport list, I apologize. I did not realize that all of the other stuff was there. Please forgive me. It will not happen again. C W Buhlert

So, how many of us are now receiving our 50 cents back? As Patton once said, "Ignore the first two reports, give me the third." Imagine what that Archives staff is going through. Why didn't I realize I was spending more in postage than what they charged for the photocopy? Thanks Linda.... As she asked before, pass this on to your other lists; she misled us.

Cousins, Please forgive the "commercial", but I use Family Origins and I couldn't resist sharing this review of the latest version that was published by Dick Eastman recently. If you don't have a genealogy program, perhaps you should consider this one. My apologies to those of you who subscribe to his newsletter and have already seen this review. Nevada Jack Jack@Ralph.org ============================================================ The following article is from Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter and is copyright 1999 by Richard W. Eastman. It is re-published here with the permission of the author. ============================================================ - Family Origins 8.0 Family Origins by Parsons Technology has always been one of my favorite Windows genealogy programs. It combines low cost, ease of use and almost all the features that a serious genealogist would ever want. That's a dynamite combination! Parsons Technology became a subsidiary of Broderbund some time ago, and then the new parent company itself was acquired by other companies. The management at Parsons/Broderbund/The Learning Company/Mattel has wisely decided to keep the Family Origins product alive, and they continue to refine the program. Family Origins version 8.0 is now available in two versions. The regular version contains the genealogy program itself while the deluxe version has the same program bundled with two other programs from Parsons: Family Reunion Planner and Place Finder. I had a chance to use the brand-new Family Origins Deluxe version 8.0 this week and can report that it still is an excellent, low- cost genealogy program. It is still easy to use, and it remains an excellent software tool for serious genealogists. Installation of the new program was a snap. If you have ever installed another Windows program, you can install this one. Once installed, the program asks if you would like to register the software online. However, online registration is not required. The program's documentation states that Family Origins 8.0 requires Windows 95 or Windows 98, a 486 or higher IBM PC or compatible, 8 megabytes of RAM memory, a minimum of 8 megabytes of hard disk space (a full installation requires 40 megabytes), a double-speed or faster CD-ROM drive or faster, and VGA video with at least 256 colors. Family Origins 8.0 also works with most popular printers (monochrome and color) supported by Windows. A modem and Internet Service Provider account are required if the user wishes to use the online features. Even though Parsons Technology says that the program requires Windows 95 or Windows 98, I ran it on Windows NT 4.0 Workstation and did not encounter any problems with its operation. When I first started Family Origins 8.0, it automatically found a database on my hard drive that had been created with an earlier version of the same program. It then asked if I wanted to use this database and if I wanted to convert it to the version 8.0 format. I clicked on "yes" and a minute later I was looking at all my data in the new program. One of the things I have always liked about earlier versions of Family Origins is the clean, simple interface. Version 8.0 continues to use essentially the same "look and feel." When launched, a "tree view" appears that is a traditional pedigree chart. The screen is not filled with a lot of detail. If anything, I could even say that the simple tree view has a lot of wasted space that could be used to display information. However, by keeping the tree view simple, the display is always easy to read. The user can instantly switch to "Family View," a form of the standard Family Group Sheet. This view shows the father, mother and all the children of that couple. It also displays the names of the father's parents and the mother's parents, making it a 3- generation display. Again, the display is clear and uncluttered. Information is added or manipulated either by using icons across the top of the display screen, by selecting items from the pull- down menus, or by using a right-click of the mouse. I found the icons to be a bit cryptic at first. However, as I became more familiar with the program, they became much more intuitive. Another nice feature is "bubble help;" simply keep the mouse cursor over the icon for a second or so, and a small pop-up window appears that gives a one-sentence description of the underlying operation represented by that icon. To see all the available details about any individual in either view, place the mouse cursor over the person's name, right click and select "Edit Individual." A pop-up screen appears with dates and places of birth, marriage and death, along with almost all the other available information such as dates and places of residence, military service, Ancestral File number, Bar Mitzvah, education, physical description, public offices held, naturalization, occupation and a bunch more possible fields. You can instantly add or change any of the information from this same screen. Each fact in the database can be fully referenced with both text notes and with the source of that information. Sources are kept in a true sources database, not in simple text files. The sources database has room for the following on each source: * Name of the source (which will appear in the Master Source List) * Description (two or three sentences, usually including full title) * Author of the original source document * Publisher of the original source document * Source text, a large text field for verbatim transcriptions * Repository name * Repository address * Repository telephone number * Text notes about the repository * Call number of the original source document at the repository cited * Any other comments you may have about the source document In this day and age, I would suggest that all genealogy software should have a sources database as good as that of Family Origins version 8.0. Some programs do, but sadly, others do not. If your present genealogy program does not properly document sources, you might want to switch to another program that will fully document your research efforts. Unlike some of the simpler programs, you can add multiple events for any individual. If you have two or three different dates or places of birth found in contradictory records, you can enter all of them. For instance, you are not limited to only one occupation; if your ancestor was a sailor in his younger days, a farmer in middle age and a merchant still later in life, you can enter all three occupations, along with corresponding dates, into the database. When first installed, Family Origins version 8.0 has more than 50 different types of facts that can be added to the database, including all the items I just mentioned. However, if you want to add still another fact not on the list, just click on "Add" and you can enter whatever event types that you wish. I added "Filles du Roi" (Daughters of the King) to the list of facts available. Anyone researching French ancestors arriving in Quebec province in the 1600s will recognize this term. If you, too, have unique fields (or facts) that you wish to record about your ancestors' lives, those facts can easily be added to the database. Anyone using an earlier version of Family Origins will be interested in the new features added to version 8.0: * The new Missing Information List will quickly provide a list of individuals and the type of information, such as birth date or marriage place, that is missing in your file. * The Surname Statistics List makes it quick and easy to compile a summary of all the surnames in your database. Not only can you see how often each surname appears in your database, but you can also see the earliest date and the most recent date each surname appears. * You can now create and filter a To-Do List based on surname or individual name, a nice tool to use before visiting a genealogy library or archive. * The Family Origins Explorer is the new heart of Family Origins' search system. Once you've found some new facts to add to your file, you can easily search for individuals in your database based on the criteria that you specify, such as any marriage date prior to 1850. Then, directly from the Explorer screen, you can add and edit individual and family notes, sources, and pictures, as well as addresses, photos, LDS ordinances and to-do list items for all individuals in the database. You can also use the Family Origins Explorer as a navigational tool to quickly view any individual's vital information as well as instantly see every immediate relative of the highlighted person. * Version 8.0 includes a method to easily prepare files for future publication at LDS Family History Centers and FamilySearch.org. * You can open databases created in the LDS Personal Ancestral File (PAF) program without any additional conversion steps, even for the just-released PAF version 4.0. * Version 8.0 now operates with multiple databases at the same time. * The user can open multiple copies of the same database. * A new feature allows for "Drag and Drop" of people between different databases. That's much easier than the normal "copy- and-paste." * Family Origins version 8.0 automatically checks for duplicates as you enter names. * The new "Hourglass Tree" report even includes photos. This "Hourglass Tree" is a great method of showing both the ancestors and descendants of a particular person. * Family Origins version 8.0 now has a new page layout option that lets the user set margins, define headers and footers, and more. The program also will automatically open your word processor when printing to file. * Family Origins version 8.0 also has an improved Family Scrapbook. This lets you add photos, audio clips, and videos to individuals or families in your database. Each person and family in your database has its own scrapbook where you can add, edit, remove, and rearrange scrapbook items. Photographs, sound clips, and video clips can be attached to any family. A new photo editor allows for rotating, image manipulation and printing of images. New printed reports include: * Henry descendant book (individuals are numbered as: (1211, 1212, 1213, ...) * D'Aboville descendant book (individuals are numbered as: 1.2.1.1, 1.2.1.2, 1.2.1.3, ...). * Calendars with birthdays and anniversaries * Address (mailing) labels * Surname statistics list * Missing information list Family Origins version 8.0 does not come with a printed manual, nor does it seem to need one. The online help is excellent. Whenever I clicked on Help, the Windows Help system brought up a fully detailed description of the use of the page that I was viewing at the time. In addition, the Help system is fully searchable. Want to read about adding sources? Click on Help, click on Search, and then enter "sources." You will then see several pages of information about how to enter sources into the program as well as information about why recording of sources is so important to genealogy research. The Family Origins version 8.0 Help system also includes a rather complete Glossary of Genealogical Terms and an online reference manual that describes: * Relationship Terms * Calendars and Dates * The Importance of Dates * Collecting Family History Documents * Published Sources and Libraries * State and Local Sources * Federal Sources * Records Selection Table * Possible Sources * Ways to Avoid Grief in Genealogical Research * Family History Centers * Interviewing Relatives All in all, this is an excellent genealogy program. The above information describes only a few features available in this powerhouse. Many examples of the screens and the printed reports can be seen on the company's web site. Note that you can see many sample screen shots and printouts at: http://www.familyorigins.com/samples.htm Family Origins version 8.0 sells for $29.95 U.S. funds and can even be downloaded from the company's web site. You could be using the program within an hour or so after reading this newsletter. Registered users of earlier versions of Family Origins can purchase an upgrade for $19.95. Family Origins Deluxe includes two other programs from Parsons: Family Reunion Planner and Place Finder. That version is available only on CD-ROM and will sell for about $49.95 at retail outlets. If you are undecided about switching to Family Origins version 8.0, you might want to first download the free demo from the Family Origins web site. This demo allows you to try all the features in Family Origins 8.0, including printing trees, for 15 days. Data entered into the demo will be preserved if you later purchase the regular version.

Last update on the WW1 Draft Card Uproar. I have found a researcher who will copy your cards at a reasonable price. The genealogy e-mail lists prohibit the posting of information on professional researchers so I cannot give you the information here. At the bottom of this message you can see how to get the information. And today we now have a notice in Rootsweb Review explaining that I was in error about my posting and quoting the Regional Manager at the GA NARA. It's certainly nice to have my credibility trashed <huge sigh> I'm not going to fight this battle any longer folks. I sat up a page at my home web site that will tell you about the WW1 Draft Cards and give you the information on the lady who will do the look-ups and copies of your cards. If you have hung in here thru all this mess and want copies of these cards then please take the time to go look at the page. I'm still not sorry for my post. I believe the WW1 Draft Cards are a wonderful resource for all of us searching for our ancestors during the 1917-1918 time period. But I am tired of the bashing I'm getting about now.

Hi all, Ancestry.com has DAR Lineage Books as a FREE database for 10 days, it was added on the 23, so there are actually 8 days left. I typed in DAVENPORT and got 430 hits, you might try adding other spouse surnames to limit the results. This database gives you lineage facts and some other helpful information too. Thought some of you might want to check it out so this link should take you right to the search page for this database. Happy Hunting, Vicki http://www.ancestry.com/ancestry/search/3174.htm

Here is a very interesting web site I was alerted through another mailing list. It bears checking out..... http://www.universitylake.org/primarysources.html Joann

I have switched from AOL to MSN. My new E-mail address is: MargoBelle@msn.com. MargoBelle

Last week I sent out a notice about the WW1 Draft cards being at the GA NARA branch and that the cards are found in state / county / surname order. I also said the cost of copies was 50 cents. I got bombarded with messages saying FALSE, FALSE, UNTRUE. All ranging from you "have to have draft board, name, age, etc etc" to "Totally FALSE cost". "UNTRUE Post" and "You are Misleading People". Jeez what a mess !! Makes me almost wish I had never posted the message. So let me clarify things here. 1st things 1st. I called the Archives yesterday and spoke with the manager of the textural department who is in charge of the WW1 registration / application cards. The first thing I asked was: What's the cost of ordering the cards via mail? He said the cost is $10.00 per card. Doesn't matter if you have 10 people all with the last surname in the same state/county they charge by the card. I asked why was I told the cost was 50 cents? After much discussion and tracking down the person I spoke with it turned out to be a large misunderstanding - the person knew I came to the archives all the time and thought I meant the cost to use the copier at the archives. So OK the cost is not 50 cents it's an outrageous $10.00. I have e-mailed one of the officers of the Friends of the Archives to see if they will be willing to do the searching and copying for less money. As soon as I get an answer I'll let everyone know. Now the 2nd thing. If you go to the NARA on-line site for GA and request the form to order WW1 Draft Cards you will receive a form that says you have to furnish all kinds of information. THIS IS A STANDARD NARA FORM TO ORDER CARDS FROM THE LDS FILM!!!!! If you are ordering a look-up from any NARA branch other than the East Pointe branch you must give this information because the copy will be made from the LDS microfilm which IS in state and then Draft Board order. It is not by state and then county. The NARA staff needs the information on the form to be able to find the card on the LDS film. HOWEVER - all you have to do is write a letter to the East Pointe branch and request a copy of - here we go - pay attention !!! ORIGINAL DRAFT CARD and give them the state, the county and the name and race of the individual you want. The only areas where this will not work is for the largest cities in the US such as New York, Chicago, LA, etc. then you have to have a street or the draft board. These cities have not been sorted into surname order yet. And ALL of the states are located at the GA NARA Branch - they have not been split and sent anywhere else. Now I hope that this helps straighten out the information that is flying fast and furious around the lists. If you forwarded my other messages somewhere will you please forward this one also? And when you forward this message please leave my name and e-mail address included. People need to write to me if they have questions not flood the lists with posts about "untruth" and "false information". It only causes confusion. Thanks a lot and hope I have helped clear up this mess.

In an e-mail from a Davenport in Ohio, I have had a mention of Benjamin son of a Cornelius who was born in late 1700's (m to Susan A.---). Benjamin was married to Phoebe Allen born in Palmyra, Wayne Co. NY. The name Phoebe Allen seems to ring a bell for me, but in looking through material I have, I cannot find her. Does this name mean anything to anyone out there? I'd appreciate hearing from you if it does! Thanks! Mary Lou Garland

I received about a dozen e-mails this morning all asking the same question so I know that I was not clear in my post yesterday. If you forwarded my message about the WWI draft cards being at the GA NARA branch will you please also forward this message? The original draft card applications (registrations) for every state (the entire US) are at East Pointe. According to the Archive Staff there are no plans to split these cards and move any of them to any other NARA location since East Pointe has been charged with the "custody" of these records. It is only the original cards that are in state / county / alpha order. Someone posted a message to one of the lists that NARA was planning on re-filming the cards since they are now in state / county / alpha order. If such a thing is underway it is unknown to the East Pointe archive staff and they should know if such a thing was in the works. If you request a copy of your ancestor's draft card from any NARA branch other than this one they will be searching the LDS microfilm and you will have to know the state and draft board for them to make a copy. It is only at the East Pointe location that you can request a copy by state and then county and the copy will be made from the ORIGINAL card. If I'm still unclear please let me know.
