This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Allison Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kg.2ADI/120.1.1.1.1.3.1.2 Message Board Post: Dear Theresa, I was rereading my reply to your message and I realize that I failed to explain how I'm indirectly related to Albert Ward Allison. As I said in my previous message, my brother is a participant in the Allison/Ellison DNA Project. His DNA score matches the DNA score of a descendant of Benjamin Allison. Benjamin moved form Orange Co., NY to Greenbrier Co., VA in the 1700s and then to Gallia Co., OH where Benjamin died in the early 1800s. Descendants of Benjamin moved to Pike Co., IL. Albert Ward Allison is one of those descendants of Benjamin. If you want a more complete genealogy of the descendants of Benjamin Allison, which includes your Albert, please contact me privately. All the best, Mary Allison Yonan yonan at fgi.net
