Barb: Thank you for advising of the Census enumerations of Devenport of Presque Isle, Maine. Was that the way the family spelled the name or the way that the Census enumerator spelled the name? I have little faith in Census enumerators as spellers, prefer to rely on how the Davenport or Devenport concerned spelled the name. You should see what one moderately literate enumerator did to the German names in Vandenburgh County, Indiana, in one Census. JSD
