Author: grankk902 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lewis/12028.3.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I looked at other Lewis papers I have & I found that Brackin Lewis b. 1801 NC to Zachariah & Rachel BRACKIN Lewis. Zachariah died in NC and Rachel, his wife, remarried to a Peter Mankins & they(including Brackin) moved to the state of Kentucky about 1809 & lived there until 1834-1835 when they all moved to Arkansas. Brackin was about 34 then. He married a Matilda Preston who was born in Kentucky. So, thus the confusion of where Moses was born. From this it looks like Brackin, his father was born in NC, his mother NC, Moses either KY or Ark, depending on when & where Brackin & Matilda were married. But in the papers I have, it has Moses name as Moses D Lewis, b. KY. In other papers I have somewhere, it says his name is Moses Daniel Lewis b. 1832.

Author: judycarman127 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lewis/2756.1.3/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi Anna, I'm Judy McCoy Carman. My daughter Judy Reeds Downer recently wrote to you. As she explained, I knew Skinny in 1962. It is a long story that I can tell you if you are interested, but basically I became pregnant and was forced to give Judy up for adoption. I found her about 10 years ago to my great joy. I had tried to find Skinny off and on, and it is so sad to learn that he has passed away before I could find him. However, maybe that was meant to be. I'm so sorry for your loss and that of his wife and sons. I have very fond memories of his mother, Anna. I'm wondering if you were named after her. As Judy said, we don't want to disrupt the family in any way. We trust your judgment if you think it would be best for us not to have any further contact. But if you do think it would be a good experience for everyone to meet us, that would be absolutely wonderful.

Milton Lewis has an ancestor from Wales but we don't know who he is. When he did the DNA test he matched a Lewis in Wales but Sorenson didn't give the name of the Welch Lewis.. If you have done the DNA and are Haplogroup G2a then we might have a connection. Doris M.

This applies to those who have already been tested in the HV1 section of the mtDNA: Due to the unmatched growth of our database, many customers are finding genealogically significant connections through mtDNA. It is often more difficult to make these connections because surnames change in each generation along the maternal line and because mtDNA mutates more slowly. However, testing an additional region of the mtDNA can significantly increase a person’s chances of finding the genealogically significant match he or she has been looking for, and help to narrow down the maternal lineage’s potential countries of origin. To support our customers’ effort to find these connections, Family Tree DNA is offering a sale on the mtDNA Refine upgrade, which tests the HVR2 region of mtDNA, from May 27th through June 5th. No new kit is necessary as your DNA is already stored at our testing facility. mtDNA Refine Standard Price: $75 Your Price: $59 This upgrade may be helpful if: a.. You are searching for connections in your family tree to extend your genealogy b.. You already have low resolution mtDNA matches This upgrade will not change your haplogroup assignment. Samples with no matches would not benefit from this upgrade at this time, although as the database grows and matches are found the mtDNA Refine can help narrow down how closely related the matches are. Customers interested in upgrading instead to the mtDNA full sequence test (Mega) should contact us at info@familytreedna.com. There is no need to contact our staff to receive this upgrade pricing; this special price will be adjusted in the system accordingly. You can find your discounted price listed under the "SPECIAL OFFER" link on your Family Tree DNA personal page. As always, we appreciate your continued support. Family Tree DNA
