About us
We have a male tested descendant of Thomas who descends from Ralph the immigrant. The descendant of Thomas is haplogroup I-M253 and matches the English current day heirs of Leftwich ancestry. This group also has many matches with surname Lawson.
We also have many of Thomas' brother Augustine's sons represented by male YDNA. These testers who connect to Augustine Leftwich SR, brother of Thomas, represent many of Augustine's sons. They are haplogroup R1b and contain some outside of surname matches. Members of this group have matches with surname Gatewood. A NPE (non paternal event) is suspected based on research of the area where brothers Thomas and Augustine lived and finding evidence of Leftwich/Gatewood associations.
