1. DNA Information, project of member Sherrie Boone; please send comments to her via “contact us” for now.

2. Leftwich Heritage (will be moved to ISSUES, or HERITAGE ISSUES)

The Leftwich Heritage is the annual publication of the Leftwich Historical Association.  It is a collection of research articles submitted by the membership and mailed out to each member, usually in late Spring.   The 25th Anniversary Issue was in  2017.  1992-2017 is a wonderful legacy!

As time goes on, we will work to bring articles out of the Heritage issues and “file” under headings.   Please contact us for your article submission ideas through the Contact Us page.

4.  Elinor Underwood Hutchinson has just taken over the reigns of editor from Howard Thurmon, who has published beautiful editions, methodically, and for many years.  Ellie was originally born in Washington, DC and moved with her family to Massachusetts when she was ten.  

She graduated from Worcester State College in 1985 with a BS in Natural Science and a minor in Music.  She is currently employed as a production planner at Web Industries in Hartford, CT.

Ellis serves as National Chairman of the Continental Line, an American Revolution reenacting organization. She enjoys spending time with her husband Card and her daughter Sara, playing with her two amazing grandsons, sleeping late, history, reading, and listening to music.

  1. Deb asked me to do the DNA connection which is through familytreedna.com. I do surnames Johnson and Clark also through FT. Have been “dubbed”, by Dave, and have submitted brief bio and photo for the next LHA newsletter.

    Currently there are only 12 Y DNA participants for our project, and some are outside of Leftwich surname.
    We have 2 groups, 2 different groups by haplogroup.

    Would encourage interested males to take advantage of summer sales through FT and test so we can confirm our origins.
    Thanks

  2. I hope all have received the recent LHA newsletter. There will be another later this summer that will include some important links (in print) to familytreedna.com. The upcoming edition answers some of the questions that have been posed, especially about transferring into FT from other companies.

    We have a test ordered for a Thomas/brother of Augustine in the works and hope this will offer new direction. As it is currently, we have no definitive association proved. So I encourage any Male Leftwich to test so we can sort the lines.

    If you need links to FT you can contact me at sboone12@cox.net and I’ll walk you through it. Best, Sherrie
