Henry Davenport III's second wife was Barbara Ivory (d.1748), the daughter of Sir John Ivory and sister of John Ivory Talbot (who owned Lacock). Henry Davenport III's mother was Elizabeth Talbot (c.1630–1709), the sister of Sir John Talbot (1630–1714) (who had also owned Lacock). He had a son, Sharington, and two daughters, Mary Elizabeth and Mary Lucy, by his first marriage to Mary Chardin (b.1670/1671). He had four children by his second marriage to Barbara: Henry, Talbot, the Reverend William (who married his cousin Martha Talbot, thus inheriting Lacock) and Barbara.

Dandridge was a painter of conversation pieces and portraits. He took over Godfrey Kneller's old studio in 1731.
