Father*Joseph Doan3 b. 12 Oct 1795, d. 1 Aug 1848
Mother*Cynthia Tomlinson2 b. 27 Nov 1797, d. 8 Aug 1880
Birth*1836Cynthia Ann Doan was born about 1836 in Pennsylvania.4 
(Daughter) Census US 18505 November 1850Cynthia Ann was enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 5 November 1850 in the household of her recently widowed mother in Northampton, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. She was 13 years old and attending school. Her future husband, Isaac Dungan, who had been widowed the previous year, was also enumerated in her mother's household in 1850. He had been left with two very young sons who were enumerated with their paternal grandparents that year.2 
Marriage*She married, as his second wife, Isaac Dungan, son of Jesse Dungan and Adreanna Cornell.1 
Census US 1860*12 June 1860Cynthia and Isaac Dungan were enumerated on the 1860 census taken on 12 June 1860 in Southampton, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Isaac was 38 years of age and a farmer, with real estate valued at $4,800 and a personal estate valued at $800, and Cynthia was 23 years of age. Isaac's younger son, Mahlon, from his previous marriage, resided with his father and stepmother in 1860. He was 13 years old and attending school. Also residing in the Dungan household that year was Elias Hollowell, who was 30 years of age, a miller, and had a personal estate valued at $800.5 
Census US 1870*26 July 1870Cynthia and Isaac Dungan were enumerated on the 1870 census taken on 26 July 1870 in Southampton, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Isaac was 47 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $6,700 and a personal estate valued at $2,000, and Cynthia was 34 years of age and keeping house. Isaac's younger son from his first marriage, Mahlon, was enumerated with his father and stepmother. Mahlon was 23 years of age and a painter. Also enumerated with the family was Isaac and Cynthia's daughter, Sallie, who was 6 years old and attending school. The final member of the Dungan household in 1880 was Elizabeth Krewson, age 20 and born in Pennsylvania, who worked as a domestic servant. We wonder, what, if any, the relationship was between Mahlon Krewson Dungan and Elizabeth Krewson.4
