This book is about two brothers, Edmond Davenport and Absolum Davenport, who brought their families from Pitt County, North Carolina to Wilson County, Tennessee about 1810-1814. Their great grandfather was Richard Davenport whose descendants are the Albemarle Davenports. He was born in 1642 and lived from about 1680 to his death about 1714 on the north shore of the Albemarle Sound. Their grandfather was Isaac Davenport who moved to the south side of the Albemarle Sound to an area that became a part of Tyrrell County in 1729. Their father was George Davenport, who moved to Hyde County, and served in the North Carolina Militia during the Revolutionary War. When Edmond and Absolum moved to Wilson County, Tennessee, they settled in the Sanders Fork area that became a part of Cannon County in 1838. Absolum served in the army during the War of 1812. About 1835 Edmond and two of his sons moved to the Barren Fork area of Warren County. The descendants of both Edmond and Absolum increased rapidly and soon began moving out of the area. Today they are in nearly all, if not all, of the 50 states of the United States and also in several foreign countries.
