Whit, Dave and All: There are so many major differences between the traditional, largely oral early family history of the Washington County, VA (WCV) Davenports of the lines of Henry and Julius, sons of Thomas Davenport, Sr., of Cumberland, and what the public records document that it will be a major chore to make the comparison. Yet, I will shortly do so and publish the analysis on the Rootsweb. I feel certain that despite what I present that it will change no minds among the WCV Luddites (those with a mind set unwilling to accept change or new ideas). For my part, the records will speak for themselves and will determine what is portrayed in the Pamunkey Lineage Chart. As to what Bill does about the Lineages and Links of his DNA Analyses, the prerogative is his. I admit to a bias against oral family history. I spent almost two years back in the 60s when I became interested in genealogy spinning my wheels because my grandfather (and Nevada Jack's great-great grandfather)William Asbury Davenport, of Maroa, Macon County, Illinois, did not tell the truth about anything that happened between the time he got out of the Union Army in 1865 until he married my grandmother Cordia Ann Parkhurst in 1892. We found his first wife (Jack's ancestress), descend from his fourth. The VA knew about, had required proof of the death of his second wife before Grandma could qualify for a Civil War Veteran's Widow's pension in 1931. My father, I learned from VA records, successfully accomplished that search in Indiana. Uncle Ed, dead almost forty years now, subsequently told me that Dad (died 1935) also discovered that there likely was another wife, vaguely recalled by an aged distant relative, who died of milk fever after childbirth sometime in the 1870s-80s, someplace--sex, disposition of the child, if survived, unknown. That was highly probable because wife No. 2 died in 1872 and Grandpa didn't marry Grandma until 1893. Other evidence indicated that it could have been Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, or Kansas, a search task that we declined to undertake. Grandpa had stashed his only son by his first wife, Jack's great-grandfather, with a family in Hamilton County, Indiana, and gone roaming. John, Jack's ancestor, was 26 years older than Omer, my father, third son by Grandpa's fourth wife. John Scott Davenport Holmdel, NJ
