Why not go to the Lawson Project, there are two on Internet, one is for 37 markers and one is 67 markers.  Your Q might match up with some of the Lawsons in one or both of those project.  Although I grew up there, I did not know the Hooker families, none seemed to be in my classes at school.  There was a David Lawson there before my time who married a Sarah.  Check out the yDNA Lawson Project of Carl Lawson.

Our DNA tests match with 5 of the Hooker families in Patrick, Henry Co, found there in the mid to late 1700s. The earliest record of our David is 1830 census Scott Co Va. The DNA tests also show our Lawson Haplogroup as Q for Native American. I'd be interested to know as well, if anyone has any info on the Lawsons of Patrick Co.
