Doc, You may be correct in your assumption that I descended from the Newberry Davenports. I cite these possible clues: 1. The similarity in names-Augustine and my gggrandfather's middle name was Augustus. 2. Dates when you say James was in South Carolina, probably in the vicinity of Laurens/Greenville. One bit of information that I had said that Willis came to South Carolina with his parnets at a very early age. He was born in 1808. 3. If James of Augustine had one son born in 1812 that fits in with what I had been told by some very elderly(now deceased)members of the family that Willis had one brother and possibly two. I know of one! Isaac was brother Willis and the Davenport line that my Mother descended from. Yes that makes me a double Davenport. 4. Finally, in a book on the history of Arkansas, one of Willis' sons, Willis B. Davenport is mentioned and in the book it quotes him as saying he came from Greenville South Carolina and that his father, Willis Augustus came to South Carolina from Ohio. I just wish I could confirm all of this. I have been looking for Willis' parents for over 10 years. Any additional information that might help nail this down? As always your meticulous information is greatly appreciated. By the way, It is amazing how much Davenport family inormation has been filled in since I first contacted you three years ago about my research and the possibility of your assisting with my Davenport family Newsletter. Most of the credit has to go to you for your insistence that we use a scientific approach based on hard evidence and not family hearsay. Thank you again, Roy W. Davenport
