Hi, Alice! I was aware of the prominence of the DAVENPORTS in Milton, but had not gotten deep into the Mendon side because it isn't the direct line of my wife's family. I really didn't delve beyond Samuel/Holbrook when they moved to Mendon. I guess you've aroused my interest into their descendants, when you say "BIG in Mendon". I didn't realize that. If not too much trouble maybe you can fill us in. I am aware,too, that in 1801 two cousins married. This brought in a third line in the Avon area. The plot thickens. Thanks for your interest. Russ
