If you are searching for a male Lawton who might be able to test for your line, please email me at lcmoseley@hotmail.com and I will post the request here.  I ask that you include your pedigree in your email to me. 

I intend to maintain a database of Lawton contacts, people who are looking for qualified males from their direct line of paternal descent who would be willing to test.  These contacts, female Lawtons and males descended from female Lawtons who are not eligible for y-dna testing, often have or know of no one to test from their line, but often have extensive pedigree records who could help fill in the gaps in your tree.  

Here are some of the ancestors for whom a male in the direct line of paternal Lawton descent is needed to test:
