    1. [DAVENPORT] Pamunkey Research Progress Report

    3. Pamunkey Cousins: Research progress during the past several weeks has largely been in a better identification of the Terry-Davenport interface. All Pamunkeys who descend from Thomas Davenport, Sr., of Cumberland, also descend from Grace Terry, most likely a daughter of Captain Thomas Terry, a neighbor o Davis Davenport in King William, and later a neighbor to both Richard Davenport and Thomas Davenport, Sr., in Caroline (Upper King William before 1728). There are implications in the Terry connection which include the Evans family of Carolina, Amelia, and Halifax--a relationship which may bear on an identification of the wife of James Davenport, Sr., of Halifax, eldest son of Thomas, Sr., of Cumberland. To the nominations heretofore suggested of Dejarnett and Terry as the surname of Catherine, James, Sr.'s wife, we can now add Evans. There will be several new identifications forthcoming of Pamunkey Davenports and close relatives in Halifax and Charlotte, both grounds where previous searchers have apparently not dug long or deeply. We also have some disclsoures relative to Prince George Davenports. John Scott Davenport Holmdel, NJ
