Lynn, I don't know your Cynthia THORNBURGH, but I have ancestors and know of others who do, where the earlier one lived in Randolph Co., NC and migrated to Putnam Co., IN. There is an example in the file below from my database. (I am a LEDWELL desc., thus this file. My Louisa Eliza LEDWELL CHAVIS ( 1843-1916) and her sons and daughters, and 3 grandchildren, moved to Putnam Co., IN after her spouse died in TN. Both were from Randolph Co., NC. ) MODLINS and CHAVIS' are also in Randolph Co., NC and Putnam Co., IN. It might be interesting to see if more families followed this pathway. My Randolph Co., NC ancestor, Josiah CHAVIS joined the Union Army in Knoxville, TN. The Indiana destination would have been a political motivation, I think.
