We are trying to establish genealogy links to the Litaker family. This surname is spelled a variety of ways including, but not limited to: Litaker Lidaker Leidaker Leideker Leidecker Laidacker Laidaker The 1790 Federal Census shows members of this family were living in Rowan and Mecklenburg Counties but members could have settled anywhere in North Carolina. Research leads us to believe members of this family were in Pennsylvania prior to North Carolina. However, there seems to be a horrible lack of documentation to prove ancestry - thus the DNA project. If the DNA matches, we will know we are on the right track. If it does not match, they we will know to look in other directions. We hope to find male Litakers (and other similiar spellings) to take the Y-DNA67 test. We are using Family Tree DNA (www.FamilyTreeDNA) for the project. If you would like more information about this new DNA project, please contact me.
