Dianne, I wrote you note personally regarding one of your posts and then found this message. It seems that you and Elaine are sharing data as well. I shall try to read her notes and get up to speed on those too. ----- Original Message ----- From: D Davenport<mailto:ddavenp706@hotmail.com> To: davenport@rootsweb.com<mailto:davenport@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, October 06, 2006 1:44 PM Subject: Re: [DAVENPORT] William David Davenport and Margaret Ramey Dorothy has a marked grave and I have a photo of the tombstone. It's in Bethbara(?) Cemetary in Shooting Creek, Clay county, NC. (Sorry I am still at work and my notes are at home); but I have not been able to locate David's grave. I think it is unmarked.I do have a copy of David's estate documents from the NC archives which I ordered and it lists his children.
