I have a photograph of Henry Davenport -- her father, my great grandfather -- dressed as a tightrope walker. In family lore, we were told about Henry Davenport taking a small stove across the tightrope and frying an egg. Do you have additional information about the family? Sorry, I don't have more on the Davenport Street question. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
