Hello, my apologies if you see this on more than one list. Are you a LONSDALE or do you have a LONSDALE in your family? There is now a DNA Project for the LONSDALE family line. This can be found at https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/lonsdale Joining the group doesn’t mean you have to get your DNA tested. But it would help expand the worldwide LONSDALE Family Tree. If you are interested in a DNA test, there is a Group Discount. My own LONSDALE line is Lancastrian and there are records that show the family in the East Lancashire area of England as early as 1220. It is amazing how much our ancestors moved around. Wills from the 1590’s mention lands and property in Craven, Yorkshire. In the 1700’s some went to America, and came back. Others were transported to Australia. and stayed there. In the 1863 my 2 x times Gt Grandfather got a job in Brighton. So there are LONSDALE’s every where and with DNA testing we can hopefully find who is related to who. And where the different LONSDALE lines come from. And hopefully find a common link. Below are the spelling variations that I have found so far. And no doubt there are others out there. Lainsdaile, Lainsdale, Lainsdall, Landel, Landesdaile, Landesdale, Langsdale, Lansdale, Lansdall, Lansdel, Launsdall, Launsedall, Lawnsdale, Loansdale, Londegale, Londesdaile, Londesdaille, Londesdale, Londsdaile, Londsdaill, Londsdale, Londsdall, Londsdalle, Longdale, Longsdale, Lonndesdell, Lonsdale, Lonsdaile, Lonsdalee, Lonsdall, Lonsdalle, Lonsdayle, Lonsdeal, Lounsdale, Loundsdayle, Lousdale, Lownsdale, Loynsdale. So if you are a LONSDALE or have a LONSDALE in the family, please come and join us, at https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/lonsdale If you know a LONSDALE, can you please pass this information on.
