Supplement to the History and Genealogy of the Davenport Family: In England and America, from A. D. 1086 to 1850 (Classic Reprint) by Amzi Benedict Davenport (Paperback / softback, 2015)
Excerpt from Supplement to the History and Genealogy of the Davenport Family: In England and America, From A. D. 1086 to 1850 It is w twenty-five years since a History and Genealogy of the Davenport Family was published by the undersigned. But few works of the kind had, at that period, been undertaken. Since then they have been greatly multiplied, and their importance generally recognized as tending to illustrate the history of the first colonies of our country, and in perpetuating the early record of the prominent families who were engaged in those settlements. As there have been numerous shoots, and offshoots, of our Family Tree, for the past-quarter of a century, it is w proposed to print a Supplement to the volume then issued, repeating, briefly, the record of the past generations, and bringing down the lines of descent to the present time; with such corrections and additions as have come to the hands of the writer, or which he may have been able to gather.
