His sons Alexander, David, John and James all had children in the Parry Sound Area. If we can get a solid YDNA profile of Alexander through his descendants we can narrow down the area of Scotland that he emigrated from and possibly connect him with other Lawsons in Canada and the United States or Australia. Descendants of James Lawson b 1870 are profiled on Family Tree DNA's Lawson project numbers 115042, 138629, 139839. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
