Amelia, VA, DEED: Rork Baird, wife Elizabeth, of Prince George County, to George Davenport, of Amelia County, for £45, 230 acres and plantation and orchard on Deep Creek in Nottway Parish, Amelia County, adjoining James Wortham, the Indian branch, Joseph Gray, and George Tucker... /s/ Rork Baird, Elizabeth Baird. Wit: Adam Heath, James Fletcher, Thomas Davenport, Richard Hobbs. (Amelia County, VA, Deeds 3:327)

Witness Thomas Davenport was most likely George's eldest brother, heir-at-law and administrator of the Estate of George Davenport, late of Prince George County, Decd. The only other Davenports in nearby counties were Pamunkeys, and they did not use the given name George until the 1790s. Witnesses Adam Heath and Thomas Heath (previous item) were possibly related to William Heath, who had been one of the appraisers of the Estate of George Davenport, late of Prince George County, Decd., in1739. Certainly the frequency of the Davenport-Heath interface over decades reflected some degree of in-law relationship.

     Executors of George Davenport, Decd.,
      assignees of Thomas Gunn,
     2 Beeves, 470 pounds of Meat, Sep1781, for Continental Use, £5/17/6

Source: Abercrombie and Slatten, Virginia Public Claims, Amelia County (Athens, Georgia: Iberian Publishing Co., no date), 15.

     This document is sufficient evidence to qualify all of George Davenport's descendants for membership in either the Daughter of the American Revolution or the Sons of the American Revolution, should they so desire. Thomas Gunn, assignee was the second husband of Sarah, widow of George Davenport, Sr., and filed the claim for the Estate, which was still open because one or two of the youngest children, both sons and heirs to the land, were not yet of age. The provisions impressed for the Continental Army came from the George Davenport Estate.⁷
