Notes for Dennis Downing
I do not yet know the relationship of this Dennis Downing to the one in my ancestry. Probably he is a nephew, as my Dennis had at least one brother (Francis) and probably another (James) remaining in Henry Co. IN. I am currently tying him in as a son of Francis, but that is only so that I can find him easily when traversing the database. He could just as easily be a son of James Downing & Hannah Kenney instead.
