Author: WLGreene49 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.downing/2253/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My 3rd great grandfather Jesse Green married 13 Jan 1820, Frederick, Virginia to Sarah Ann Dower. His family lived around Chester's Gap/Front Royal, Virginia (now Warren County). In the 1810 Frederick, Virginia census is a James Downing & Rezin Downing and they are not very far from my other families that lived there. In the 1820 Front Royal, Frederick, Virginia census is a James Downing Sr. & James Downing Jr. Rezin Downing married 3 Sep 1807, Loudoun, Virginia to Nancy Turner. He was son of James Downing & Asenath Jane Waters. He moved with his family to Adams County, Indiana. His father James Downing died 1832 in Jefferson County, WV (Virginia). I believe the James Downing in the 1820 Frederick, Virginia census is the same James Downing who married Asenath Jane Waters. There are no Dowers in Frederick, Virginia at this time period but there are Downing's living there. I believe my Sarah Ann Dower is actually Sarah Ann Dower/Downer/Downing. The spelling is sim! ilar. My grandparents Jesse & Sarah Green had a son John Green married Martha Turner daughter of Thomas Turner & Hannah Anderson. The Turners are connected to the Downing's. I would appreciate any information about James Downing who died 1832. Did he leave a will? Thanks Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Mine too. I am very interested in having Y-DNA testing done on my Downing line. My cousin, a male Downing, is the end of the Y-line for Downing in our family. It is suspected that he has Klinefelter syndrome (xxy chromosomal malady) and is therefore, not a good candidate for y-dna results. I am searching for cousins, specifically a male Downing relative who would be interested in submitting dna for Y-line testing. I'm searching for Downing's in Minnesota and Wisconsin who can trace back to Phineas or his son, Wilford or Wilfred Downing d. 1850 in Platte River, Nebraska, presumably on the California Trail. he was from Michigan or Ohio. He was Wilford was married to Mary Ann Sager, who died a few years later, orphaning two children. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
