Can any of you identify with certainty the parents of Cynthia Downen, mother of the Jane Barton who married James Madison Carson in Posey County. Cynthia died when Jane was a baby and according to Carson family lore, Jane was reared by Jane Downen Dixon. It seems possible therefore that Cynthia may have been a sister of Jane but that is speculation on my part. I've not found Cynthia ("Sintha") in any of the Downen books.
