    Elizabeth Swann

    F, b. 1818, d. 13 November 1858

    Birth1818 Elizabeth Swann was born in 1818. An alternate birth year sometimes seen is 1836, not likely given that she had a four-year-old child on the 1850 census. She was shown as age 32 on the 1850 census and, for research purposes, an birth year of 1818 is posited. The 1836 date appears to be the birth year of David's second wife, Elizabeth Anna McGee.1 
    Marriagec 1845 She married David Davenport, son of Jonas Davenport and Nancy Baker, c 1845.1 
    Death13 Nov 1858 Elizabeth Swann Davenport died on 13 Nov 1858. An alternate date sometimes seen is 22 Aug 1895, which appears to be the death date of David's second wife, Elizabeth Anna McGee.1
