    When Thomas Davenport died in 1816, by his will he left all his personal and real property to his "current" wife, Letty. In addition, he also left to Letty, one half of the a bequest he and his first wife, Sarah Partlow, had received from her father, John Partlow. Letty was still living on the 1830
    census of Laurens, but have not been able to check the 1840. I figure there should be some sort of estate settlement, deed, or equity suit involving the real property which devised to Letty from Thomas. We need to determine if
    Letty died in Laurens Co., SC possessed of the real estate, or if she sold out and moved with her children in the 1830's.

    Thomas married Sarah "Sally" Partlow about 1794. Sarah was born about 1770 in Spotsylvania Co, Virginia; died about 1796. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
