First Generation

1. Davis DAVENPORT was born about 1660 in Pamunkey Neck?, New Kent Co.?, Virginia. In the absence of any other identifying data, despite research in depth in Colonial Virginia records, it is speculated that Davis Davenport was the bastard son of Richard Davis, Gentleman, of Upper New Kent/King & Queen County, and Ann Davenport, likely a transportee indentured servant on an adjoining plantation to Davis.

There is no credible evidence as to the identity of the wife (or wives) of Davis Davenport.
