There are a long line of descendants of James Townsend and his wife Catherine Allen. I happen to be one. However, who does Daniel and Robert Townsend belong to? Daniel is living on the same property as James Sr. and Allen in the 1830 and 1840 Columbia Twp. census'es. There are 2 Robert Townsends of Meigs Co. during this period. One is living in Scipio Twp and descends from a Maine family. I am referring to Robert Townsend of Columbia Twp. who in the 1850's marries a previously married Ruhama Stout. Can anyone help? Also, there is a Rachel Townsend that married Henry Mace. Ours?
