PAMUNKEY DAVENPORTS & OTHERS INTERESTED: Pamunkey Davenport Lines that have a paper trail, whether their DNA compares or not, are Pamunkeys, if they so choose. Who are we, considering our best evidence origin, to discriminate against those Pamunkeys who have had paternal events in their descent? We Pamunkeys take our pedigree from the American Revolution, and no line among us had the degree of participation in the American Revolution than did the line from which Deja descends, namely that of Glover, son of Martin, Sr., who had five sons in active Revolutionary service roles, namely James, Joseph, Moses, Joel, and William. James was likely at King's Mountain, Joseph, Moses, and Joel all served in the Virginia Continental Line with Moses dying at Valley Forge, and William fought in the Carolinas as a Bedford County militiaman. Glover himself provided beef for State and Continental troops per Pittsylvania certification. It took us almost five years to make the case for John Davenport, youngest son of Glover, and ancestor of Deja, but now strong circumstantial evidence exists connecting John to the Pamunkey Davenports of the Hanover. We do not believe that the lack of a comparable DNA should deny Deja Davenport of Michigan to a welcome in the family. Descendants of some of the First Family of the Pamunkey Davenports have the same DNA situation as Deja. We would note that prior to the appearance of DNA, that only Martin was a proven son of Davis Davenport, that we accepted circumstantial evidence that Ann Graves, Richard, Thomas, Elias, and John were also children of Davis. Then DNA connected the descendants of Thomas and Elias to those of Martin. Richard and John descendants are yet to be found who are willing to give DNA. We have proved family connection by DNA, but in this venue we do not accept DNA as the sole definer of who is and who is not a Pamunkey Davenport. To use Judy's words, our thrust is INCLUSION, not EXCLUSION. Doc
