Her son, Henry, was born (1312) three years after she died. Something is not right here.

Demacclesfield-2 and Macclesfield-8 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate in spite of different birth dates.

Agnes Demacclesfield Demacclesfield-2, born 1265, is clearly misplaced as the wife of Henry DavenportDavenport-1468 born 1335, and mother of Mary Davenport Davenport-1467 born 1375.

I suspect she is really the same person as Agnes (Macclesfield) Davenport Macclesfield-8, born 1260, died 1309, and married to THOMAS Davenport Davenport-204 born 1250. In addition to dates, location and husband, the parents are very similar, and probably the same people.

If this is the case then she should be disconnected from Davenport-1468, Davenport-1467, and merged(after merging her parents, etc.) with Macclesfield-8

If Agnes Demacclesfield (Demacclesfield-2) was born in 1265, she would be 70 years older than her husband, Henry Davenport (Davenport-1468), born 1335. Something is probably wrong with the dates or the relationship.

If Agnes Demacclesfield (Demacclesfield-2) was born in 1265, she would be over 100 years old in 1375, when Mary Davenport (Davenport-1467) was born. Something is probably wrong with the dates or the relationship.

Agnes is my 20th Great Grandmother! All the information I have been garnering during the last few years, and especially the last two years, is at best, mind boggling. I believe my ancestral relationship to the Scottish Clans can be traced to my paternal line, and the Mayflower can be traced mostly through my maternal line. Not sure about the maternal line vs. the paternal line re. the Mayflower. This is great, just what I had/have been looking when perusing my ancestral history here and on other places (DNA tested).

A BIG Thank you,

Jeannette
