[email protected] I am also trying to locate information on Jack Downing born about 1823 in South Carolina. He married Sara Jane Mc Minn born about 1840 in Green River Township, Henderson County, North Carolina. I know that Sara Jane is buried in Cuervo Cemetary in Cuervo, New Mexico. I know that around 1873 the family moved to Hillsboro, Hill County, Texas but before 1873 I am running into dead ends. Any information or leads would be helpfull. Thank you Jo Ann Nigirny Sara J. McMinn is my ggrandmother. I am sure I have spoken to you before, but why don't you try doing some research in 'El Paso, Texas. Lee Case is the relative that identified Sara as his 'G/aunt.
