Nancie,
I just noticed you entry on Confederate vet James S. Downs from Chickasaw, OK. I had an aunt, Ellen Jane Downs, unmarried, who was a missionary in the Chickasaw nation in the late 1850's and on through the next 40 years. She was from Clinton County, NY. She had a brother named James whom I have never been able to find. Perhaps this James S. Downs is the one.
Do you have other information about his location in Oklahoma in those decades after the Civil War? Did he marry? Did he have children?
Thanks for your help. Jim Downs Oceanside, California
