      to me
      I found an error on your Reynolds site and thought I would bring it to your attention. Joseph Atkinson Davenport was married to Lucy A(nn). Carter of Halifax Co., VA, not Lucy T. Carter of Nelson Co., VA. On the page titled "Lucy T. Carter", it should read Lucy Ann Carter, who was the daughter of Henry M. Carter and in the notes section, you have the information mostly correct so the error is only on the top portion of the page with father of John W. Carter, etc. Lucy Ann Carter was born ca, 1812 and is the one who married J.A. Davenport. I don't know if Lucy T. Carter is relevant to anyone in the Halifax neck of the woods.
