I am just beginning to search for my mother's side of the family. She grew up in Warren County, as did her parents and grandparents. I plan a trip to the TSLA in April and also plan to spend a day or two in McMinnville. Any suggestions for records available in Warren Co that are not available at the TSLA would be appreciated. I also would love to see where my great grandfather, Walter R Davenport lived. When he gave information reported in the TN Civil War Veterans Questionaires, he reported that the schools in the area where he grew up were Ivy Bluff and and Pleasant Hill. He also says that he was joined to the Baptist Church in 1865. According to censuses, they were in the 11th Civil Distrist. If there are any Davenport descendants in the area, I would be really enjoy meeting them while I am there. I would also like to correspond with any Davenport, Roberson, DeBerry descendants. My grandmother was Elizabeth Tennessee Davenport, b 1867 in Warren Co, m George Washington David Roberson 1888 in Warren Co, TN; they had 11 children, including my mother. Parents of Elizabeth Tennessee Davenport were Walter Rand Davenport bd 1842 (died 1932 in Warren Co, TN) and Louisa Jane DeBerry bd 1842, m 1863; parents of Walter Rand Davenport were Edmund Davenport, b1824 in TN, and Nancy Lemons b 1825; parents of Edmund Davenport were Reuben Davenport, b1798 in NC, and Susan Richardson; father of Reuben Davenport was Edmund Davenport, b1770, NC?
