(Please excuse garble in previous version, I forgot to turn "rtf" off.) Shortly after posting of the 5 Generation report, a similar inquiry came to Doc, who asked me to look into it. It appears that there were two Nancy Davenport marriages in Wayne Co., KY; one in 1812 to Peter Phipps and one in 1828 to John Casada. These appear to have been different Nancy Davenports. Casada genealogists note that John Casada moved to Georgia and settled among the sons of Osborn Davenport. From this it has been concluded that Nancy Davenport d/o Osborn and Mary (aka Mollie, Polly) Davenport was the one who married John Casada. The erroneous Phipps connection had been in circulation for at least 5 years that I know of. The person who initially made the connection may have been confused partially because there was a Phipps family in Washington Co., VA ( WCV ) nearby Osborn Davenport before he moved to Wayne Co., KY. It would be easy to assume that they migrated together to Wayne Co., KY. I recommend that The 5 Generation Report entry for Nancy d/o Osborn Davenport be changed to read... "possibly married in 1828, John Casada", instead of "Peter Phipps", pending further verification. It is curious that Osborn from WCV and John Davenport, said to be from Patrick Co VA both moved near Parml(e)yville in Wayne Co., KY. Both Osborn's and John's children appeared to have intermarried with Parml(e)ys. I have doubts about whether John was who they think he was. I would be interested to know more about him. Please excuse the delay, as your all know genealogy expands to consume all available time. Whit Davenport From: "Steven C.

Can't think of what to give someone for Christmas? Perhaps a Davenport DNA test is just the thing! We've kind of stagnated in the process!
