After discussing the family lineage with my sister this is all that we have to go by. Any information anyone may have to help us trace it more successfully is greatly appreciated. My father's (Jerald Orville Davenport born Salem, Oregon 1938) great grandfather was William Orville Davenport, his date of birth is unknown but he appears to have been born in New York. He had moved to Salem, Oregon from Cherokee Iowa in 1919 where he was a successful cattle rancher and farmer. He married Emma Russell. My Aunt (Dr. Betty Jo Davenport of Portland, Oregon) believes that William's mothers heritage goes back to England - I wasn't given her name though but I'll try to round it up. The children of William and Emma are: Glenn Leroy Davenport, William R. Davenport, Blanche I. Davenport, Olive May Davenport, Mildred Davenport and Orville Joseph Davenport. Thanks again to anyone who is able to provide any kind of link to obtaining additional information on our lineage. I'll look forward to any replys.
