Surnames: NEWTON/DAVIDSON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/FNR.2ACEB/19.58.1284.1.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: John, Why the DNA? Is there some importance? Of course, there is importance in finding living relatives, but DNA? I don't want to hurt your feelings tell me exactly who is in charge of the DNA, would it be my brother's local physician's? And Tell me after you read what I had down, that probably doesn't make sense to you and will be difficult to follow but, in my opinion I think we ended up at the same place? Remember that my mother brought up Issac Newton a lot of times but I haven't ever run across an Issac, have you? Daddy's brother was Harry Lee, so perhaps that Lee references the William Lee shown. Also, my daddy's sister was Rachel and I think that name went way back. There is no question about the Newton, it is definitely a surname used in our family prior to my grandfather, I think it stopped there; however, if you feel certain that we are related, then you are probably right because I have observed your search probs for a long time. I know for certain there were other Davidson's in Trenton, Tennessee, Gibson County, but I have never been able to find out where they fit in because I haven't for certain determined just yet if or where I got off track. Please stay in touch with me. I was just up east, I love it there. In fact, once I was at the New Castle, Deleware, historical court-house on this perfectly beautiful day, feeling quite well and folded with what appeared to be a coronary had to be picked up by ambulance and taken to the Christianana Hospital. I feel so strongly that I had an ancestor that had encountered a very bad experience there? Do you believe in this sort of para-normal things happening? I don't understand it but I really want to go back to that old court house. And, would we be related through the Davidson's of one of their spouses? I hope you get my messy disclosure worked out to a T. Thanks for you help, Nita Davidson [email protected] p.s. By the way I know a great guy that lives in this area and his name of John Lisle, how about that?
