On leaving Notsie, the Avenors under their leader Anumah, moved very closely with the Agus, with whom they found their first settlement at Avenor-Agu Volui near present Kpalime in the Republic of Togo.

Tribal frictions made them move to Fodzoku from where they later crossed the Volta to Kroboland, founding a settlement at Kpong.

One group defected to found a settlement by the Gas at a place now called Avenor close to the Police Training Depot in Accra.

The larger group led by Togbui Anumah made settlement at Tefle Avenorkpo in Fieve land.

Quarrel over farmland and fishing zones with the Tefles made the Avenors to cross the Volta to found a settlement at Yorta, later called Detsowome, near Dabala.

Whenever Avenor women went to fetch water the Tefles would lay ambush to them and either kill or kidnap them, so the place become known as Lotor-Latsi meaning "you will come but not return".

This situation forced the Avenors under their leader Atsu Fiadzea to move away to a place called Korvenu (the grove that protects).

Here Atsu Fiadzea died and was succeeded by his son Adoe under whom the Avenors made their permanent home at Avenorpeme about 1776.
