    1. [DOWNING] BRADLEY - DOWNING Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of Gaynell and Lillian BRADLEY which was taken at Harvey's Studio in Lebanon, IN. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1900's with Gaynell appearing to be about 10 years old and Lillian in her 40's at the time. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding this family: Gaynel or Gaynell Delight BRADLEY was b. 30 Jan 1897 in Boone Co., IN to parents John B. BRADLEY (1868-1925) and Lilly or Lillie M. DOWNING (1870-1945). Gaynel's Father later married Viola EDWARDS (1880-1976) and they had 6 additional children including, Mary Thelma; Paul Edward; Leander Joseph; Harold F.; Beulah; and Ralph Raymond BRADLEY, all born between 1908 and 1921. Gaynel died 15 Mar 1968 in Crawfordsville or Lebanon, IN. Her Mother Lilly was the daughter of James F. DOWNING (b. 1827) and Mary Ann WITHAM (b. 1827) who were married 28 Apr 1868 in Warren, OH. Lilly had one sibling, a brother Sylvester DOWNING b. 1871. I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

    1. [DOWNING] Harley Downing - William Fred Downing Wisconsin
    2. Hello - my name is Peggy Francis Berger. I am a decendent of Harley Downing from Ontario Wi. My mother, Arlis Downing Francis, is his daughter. She doesn't know much about his family so I thought I'd start looking for her/us. It looks like our Downing line was in Ontario Wi, Ohio, and the earliest I've seen was in Kentucky. Welcome to the Downing mailing list. Please introduce yourself and list the Downing line(s) you are researching. Names, dates and locations are very helpful. Listing your Downing basics in the subject -- Timothy Downing 1750 Maryland -- will help get the attention of other researchers.
