Biography

Elizabeth was born in 1820. She passed away in 1891.

She appears in the 1850 census at age 30 with husband, Miles, age 34, and children. A David Pringle is living with them, likely candidate for her father:[1]

  1. Eudora Davenport Female 8
  2. Levi Davenport Male 6
  3. David Davenport Male 5
  4. Almira Davenport Female 1
  5. David Pringle Male 56, born in New York.

Based on the age of her oldest child, Miles and Elizabeth were likely married 1840/41.

She appears in the 1870 census with husband Miles and children:[2]

  1. Levi W Devenport Male 26 Pennsylvania
  2. Almira E Devenport Female 21 Pennsylvania
  3. Francis D Devenport Male 19 Pennsylvania
  4. Sarah J Devenport Female 16 Pennsylvania
  5. Edward A Devenport Male 14 Pennsylvania
  6. Phebe B Devenport Female 12 Pennsylvania
  7. Clarry R Devenport Female 10 Pennsylvania
  8. Laura B Devenport Female 9 Pennsylvania
  9. Miles L Devenport Male 7 Pennsylvania

She appears in the 1880 census as wife of Miles Davenport.[3] Still living with them were children and grandchildren:

  1. Edward A Davenport Son 24
  2. Clara R Davenport Daughter 20
  3. Laura B Davenport Daughter 19
  4. Eudora A Davenport Granddaughter 12
  5. Miles D Davenport Grandson 10
  6. Oliver D Davenport Grandson 8
  7. Halls L Snyder Grandson 7
  8. Clarrah E Snyder Granddaughter 5

Research Notes

According to Giles/Franklin, Elizabeth was the daughter of Susanna Lamoreux and David Pringle, who married in 1783. Elizabeth was born in 1820, which is close to 40 years after that marriage.[4] There appears to be a missing generation. A David Pringle, age 56, appears in the 1850 census with Elizabeth (age 30). Assuming that this David is Elizabeth's father, it is more likely that he was a son of David and Susanna Lamoreux Pringle.
