I am a new member and am seeking information on Henry Lemon, born 10 July 1828 in Botetourt County, VA, USA. He married Mary Hildebrand. They moved to Illinois and raised a family. That is where Henry died in 1897 and Mary in 1918.
To Kari Lemons: I am not aware of any living Lemmons who are direct descendants of W.H. Lemmons. Several years ago I talked to someone who grew up in Marathon and he remembered some Lemmons there, but searches in Marathon directories have not yielded any finds.
hi Kari - yes that is his line and he did have his DNA done - once by sorenson and also by 23andMe. we are heading out of town tomorrow - will catch up with you after we return
To Mark Lemon: Mark there is a chance that you might descend from my immigrant ancestor. While his name was Liming, The fact that your family came from NJ where the Liming family was from is a big clue for me. There was a very large Liming/Leming group that migrated to Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. I do have one branch of them that evolved to the Lemon spelling. In order to prove if you do descend from my family you really should take a YDNA test at Family Tree DNA. There are 7 men from the family to compare your results too. If you do find out you descend from John Liming the Immigrant, I will invite you to the new family society I have started, the John Liming Society. http://john-liming-society.org. To order a test for my Lemon DNA project go to this site and click the join button. You then click, "join by ordering a test", then choose the 37 marker test, this is the minimum markers to find a match to our specific family. After ordering you will automatically be added to the project by using this link https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/lemon/about
I really hope you get tested email me if you have any questions. I think there is a good chance we might be cousins.
To Marshall Crawford: Did your William Henry Lemons have any sons that you can trace down to a living male Lemons??? Getting this person a Y-DNA test would be key to finding out which Lemons family you descend from. I run the Lemon DNA project at Family Tree DNA, and there are over 160 men who have tested to compare too. If you find someone offer to pay for the test, share your research with them, and explain why they are the key to the mystery. Getting DNA results can help you focus your research on the correct family to see how you connect. Feel free to contact me with questions.
To Linda Lemons: Hi Linda, I just joined and know your Lemons Family very well. We are cousins in fact. I have done much research on the Jackson County Lemons. Didn't your husband take a YDNA test a long time ago? I think we may have connect up once, but I lost the email I used then. I am at kari.lemons@gmail.com now.
