Posted on: Venango Co. Pa Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Pa/Venango?read=2031 Surname: Downing ------------------------- My father and his father were Andrew Gilchrist Downing. I am trying to trace them out of Allegheny county but the only associations I have found seem to be in Venango co. One of the early Downings married Ann Gilchrist and she had a son A. G. Downing. There is an Andrew Downing married to Levina Walters in the 1850 census. What I would like to know if any of his children were named Andrew Gilchrist Downing. Would appreciate any help on the Downing's of Venango co., particularly those associated with the Gilchrists. Thank you.
