  4. Christensen has no information regarding Mary's death, nor her marriage.
    Information for both is supported by the death certificates Kentucky, Death Records, 1852-1953 that list Mary Dunn as the mother:
    James Downard, d.27 Feb 1911, b. 18 May 1825
    John T Downard, d. 29 Dec 1918, b. 3 Nov 1832 (appears with John and Mary Downard in 1850 Census)
    William A Downard, d.12 Dec 1913, b. 26 Nov 1840
    Elizabeth Feagan, d.3 Apr 1913, b. 17 Dec 1818
    The death certificate for daughter Martha (d. 18 Jan 1924, b.6 Jun 1847), who appears in the 1850 Census) also lists Mary as her mother, but does not give a maiden name
    Mary Dunn is listed as the mother of Adam (who appears in the 1850 Census) on his memorial in Find A Grave, and on Martha's Find A Grave memorial
