Greetings to all. This is my first time to post my Downing information. This info came from my couisn, who hand - copied the info from courthouse records. Apparently the records are hard to read and there is some debate in my family as to whether the name in the records is DOWNING or DOWLING. I am hoping to have my information proven or disproven. Perhaps someone from this group can help me. Would you be so kind to check my information, and let me know if you find any errors or have more info on this family ??? (NOTE: I am including ALL the information I have, and none has been documented by me.) Parents or siblings unknown to me: Benjamin DOWNING born: Abt.1750 in: MD. died: Sept.5,1803 in: Green County, KY married : 1775 spouse: Sarah GRAY born: Nov.17,1754 in: MD. died: May 22,1822 in: Allen County, KY Children listed for Benjamin DOWNING & Sarah GRAY : 1) Elizabeth Gray DOWNING born: Abt 1776 2) Ann / Nancy DOWNING born: March 30,1780 died: July 9,1860 in: Pettis County, MD. married: March 30,1797 in: MD. spouse: Sylvester HALL ( have more info ) children: ( 13 -- have more info) 3) Mary Polly DOWNING born: Abt 1782 4) William DOWNING born: Abt 1784 5) Benjamin DOWNING born: Abt 1789 6) Rachel DOWNING born: Abt 1792 7) Sarah Gray DOWNING born: Abt 1792 8) Sophia DOWNING born: Abt 1793 9) John Monkster DOWNING born: Abt 1796 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you so much.
