Janet: According to the working paper-booklet "The Pamunkey Davenports of Colonial Virginia" (Hopkinsville, KY: The Pamunkey Davenport Family Association, 1998), p. 14, MARY DAVENPORT (A3e), was the daughter of Thomas Davenport (A3) and his wife Dorothy, surname unknown. Thomas, in turn, was the son of Martin Davenport (A) and his wife Dorothy Glover. Martin, who died in Hanover County in 1735, was the eldest son of Davis Davenport of Pamunkey Neck, King William County, VA. The Glover identification for Martin's wife is circumstantial, is based on the number of Glovers as a given name among Martin's grandsons. There was also a Glover Davenport in colonial Louisa, Amherst, and Bedford County records who was likely another son of Martin, but there exists some discomfort among some family searchers as to Glover's place in the Martin line. Dorothy, wife of Martin, lived for at least 45 years after his death, moved from Hanover to Cumberland County with her son David in the 1760s. There is some sentiment among Pamunkey family searchers that Thomas, being the eldest of Martin's sons, had another mother, an earlier wife of Martin's than Dorothy. Martin left Thomas, Richard, and Glover, all in some degree believed sons, out of his LW&T as well as all of his daughters, naming only his five youngest sons. The Davenport ancestry you cited relative to Mary appears to be State of the Art, which is largely circumstantial--strong circumstance, but subject to all of the shortcomings of that uncomfortable, but necessary situation, given the massive loss of public and church records.
