        I think they made more than sofas though. The might have made like high quality furniture like desks and so forth. But I could be wrong. I was just a kid. But I think a friend of ours had a very finely crafted desk that might have been a Davenport.

        correct again. I have a hutch made by A.H. Davenport and Co . Was in serious disrepair and neglect when I stumbled on it. Labor of love to restore it.

        Wikipedia: Davenport was the name of a series of sofas made by the Massachusetts furniture manufacturer A. H. Davenport and Company, now defunct. Due to the popularity of the furniture at the time, the name davenport became a genericized trademark.
