My Grandfather was John Davenport. He was born in approximately 1860 in either Birmingham or Coventry. He had two children by his first marriage (Maud and Evelyn - Evelyn got married and moved to New Zealand) He then married my grandmother (Ada Simcox) and had three sons - Frederick, Ronald (later married to Vera and had one son -Neil) and John Eric (my father) My father married my mother (Dorothy Bedder) in 1941 and I was born in 1943 -my sister Lynda in 1945. My father worked at the Humber Factory pretty well all his life. He died in 1986. We lived in Wyken and Stoke in Coventry. I am trying to trace any Davenport Relatives. Pauline Edwards.
