 | | The earliest Davenport in Whitley County came from Tyrrell County, North Carolina (from a section that is now in Washington County), where the line can be traced to 1642. |
 | | To trace the North Carolina Davenports, I went through all the colonial, state, and county records for Tyrrell, Whitley, Chowan, and Perquimans Counties, and excerpted every mention of a Davenport for the period 1642-1800, with selected records up to 1840. |
 | | It is entitled "The Davenport Families of Sevier County, Tennessee, Whitley County, Kentucky, and Tyrrell County, North Carolina." These notes amount to 115 pages, and obviously would be of value to anyone researching their Davenport line(s) in that time and place. |
