Welcome to the site Lyndsey ...... but I hope you are prepared to be flexible in your thinking about the Curnow families! 
And if you have read through all the previous posts about the Towednack family I also hope you are prepared to accept a little criticism.
I have combined two quotes here with the second taken from your post about Jacob Curnow:-
After reading these comments I need to ask - Are you trying to have a lend of us? or has someone else been having an extended tug on your leg??
Whatever the answer is I suspect you have been imbibing a little too much in the Ancestry Well!
What documentary evidence do you have to support any of the 'facts' you have quoted here? I suspect the answer will be that you don't have any because except for the fact that there is a baptism record for 'a' Thomas Curnow at St Keverne in 1588 and there is a burial record in the Bishops Transcripts for Catherine wife of Thomas Curnow at Towednack in 1635 nothing else can be substantiated.
You make the following claims:-
1. Thomas Curnow of Towednack is the Thomas baptized at St Keverne in 1588
2. The parents of Thomas were Thomas and Anes
3. The name of his wife was Catherine Care Painter
4. Catherine Care Painter was born at Towednack 23rd January 1588
5. The marriage took place at Towdnack in 1612
1. and 2. - The St Keverne Parish Register shows that 'Tho: the sonne of Curnow' was baptized - the names of the parents were not recorded!
3. - The only thing known is that Thomas Curnow's wife was named Catherin and that she was buried at Towednack in 1635 and to my knowledge there is nothing to link her to either the Care or the Painter families except for pure speculation.
5. and 6. -
The earliest surviving Towednack Register begins with the baptism of Jane daughter of Robert Curnow October 8th, 1676.
The earliest surviving Bishops Transcripts for Towednack are dated 1597-1602.
The next surviving Bishops Transcript for Towednack is dated 1615 with no records surviving for the intervening years!
If you have any evidence at all to support your claims I would be happy to hear it ............ but please do not say 'Ancestry Family Trees'!!!!
I think perhaps you should have another read of the earlier posts on this subject and have another think about what you know based on the documented facts. Of some of Thomas Curnow's children we know nothing other than the fact they were named in his Will but we do have information on others that can help us form a reasonable timeline which then enables us to determine whether or not it might have been possible for Thomas to have been born/baptized as late as 1588.
In his early post in this thread Trencrom indicated that Thomas Curnow was at Towednack by around 1606 and he also suggested that there 'must have been' other relatives involved in the relocation from St Keverne. Whilst it is possible my own opinion is that Thomas and Catherine were the sole Curnow family involved at Towednack and I think all Curnow events in that general area can be traced back to them - certainly events prior to the 19th Century.
It is not dissimilar to my Trewhella family with the man I believe to by my direct Ancestor, James Trewhella, relocating to Towednack from St Erth sometime probably during the period 1608 to 1615.

Thomas Curnow born 1588 in St.Keverne died 1643 in Towednack. Married 1612 in Towednack to Catherin. His father is also Thomas Curnow, married to Anes. Does anyone know the date of his father's birth?
Thomas Curnow b. 24/11/1588 St. Keverne d. 1643 Towednack m. 1612 in Towednack to Catherine Care Painter b. 23/1/1588 Towednack d. 1635 Towednack
