Yes, Lewis, John Townsend married to Elizabeth Danford is my line. I could
use any documentation that is available. I have a copy of John's will. I
am descended through John's son William but have never found proof that he
is the son of John since he is not mentioned in the will.

I am also interested in the DNA study of this family and hope to contact a
descendant of John's whose DNA proves the connection. My Townsend line
connects through Elizabeth Townsend, daughter of William and Elizabeth
Costen Townsend, marriage to Sylvester Deputy. I watch the Townsend and LDR
lists each day for information on these lines.

Thanks for your interest and response.
Gwen
