I believe that there are multiple Townsend families which have been combined in that secondary source - some of the information is true, but some is questionable. My guess is that land records and probate records would help confirm these family groups.

I'm wondering what your research shows. Here is where I got my lineage information, and i suppose it could be wrong: Portrait and Biographical Album of Branch, Michigan pub by Chapman Bros, Chicago, 1888, page 491, link: http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=miun.bad0865.0001.001;view=1up;seq=499 I hope I don't have to disconnect from the fascinating Train family branches.
