Don't mean to muddy the waters, but there is another Jack Smith Davenport in Georgia in the early 1800's living with Allen Davenport from Pink Hill, NC, son of William Davenport of Pitt County, NC. Allen was married to Martha Hawthorne and lived in Stewart County, GA. During one census Jack Smith Davenport and a wife whose name I can't remember were shown living with Allen and Martha. This was either 1840 or 1850 census. Anyone want to make a guess about who he was or where he came from? Sandy Lunsford Fayetteville, GA
