    1. [DAVENPORT] Oliver Davenport
    2. Terri- Went to your Orme Davenport page and saw my ancestors listed. I have a question about Oliver Davenport from your page: "100. OLIVER22 DAVENPORT (THOMAS "THE PIONEER"21, ) was born Abt. 1723 in Westchester Co, NY, and died July 09, 1801 in Westchester Co, NY. He married HANNAH SOBY/SEELEY, daughter of TRUSTUM SOBY and HANNAH GRIFFIN. She was born Abt. 1723 in Westchester Co, NY. Notes for HANNAH SOBY/SEELEY: Hannah was the biological daughter of Trustum Soby & Hannah Griffin. Hannah was a blood native of the Delaware Nation. She was later adopted by the Seeley family of Newfield, Tompkins Co, NY for unknown reasons How did you prove the Hannah Soby connection? I was informed a while back that this is the woman's true name. However, if I ever want to do a DAR application on Oliver, I am going against the Hannah Seeley "proven" ancestry. Also, didn't know about the Delaware Indian connection. I descend from Oliver's sister as well. Lots of intermarraige between the Davenports and Lamoreaux in my family. Valerie
