There is speculation that James' father was either John or Jerry, but no proof. We have no record of his parents or siblings. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My line is through Thomas Jefferson, but I have more information on all of James and Elizabeth's sons and their descendants, and am, of course, willing to share. > >James Davenport b. abt 1822 NC or VA; d. 5 May 1916, Sullivan Co, TN > m.
