My father, James Albert Downes, and I have been researching our Downes Family history on Maryland's Eastern Shore, starting with Henry Downes, who died in 1669 in Kent Co. We have traced our family's lineage from Henry to John I (1664-1707), John II (1693-1758), Hynson (1725-1776), John (d. 1798), William (1787-1839), William H. (1815-1867), Reynor Bennett (1844-1925), Marshall Bailey (1885-1958), James Albert (my father), Michael James (myself), to John Michael (my son). We have almost complete information on the families from the children of William H. Downes on down.
Any information you have would be appreciated, and I am willing to share any information I have.
