Other NoteBaptized at Holy Trinity Church in Coventry, Warwickshire 9 April 1579, the son of Henry Davenport, merchant and alderman, and Winifred Barneby. Matriculated from Merton College, Oxford in 1613. Transferred to Magdalen College after two years, but left the university to take up a post as chaplain at Hilton Castle in 1615. In 1619 he was curate of St Lawrence Jewry. Around this time he also married Elizabeth Wooley. His skills as a preacher eventually led to his election as vicar of St Stephen, Coleman Street in 1624. Eventually, his puritan sentiments led him to nonconformity and self-imposed exile in the Netherlands between 1633 and 1636. In 1637, he immigrated to America and helped found New Haven. He continued to minister there until his death on 15 March 1670.
