Greg Lamberson's Genealogy Website

Lambersons and Lambertsons

This part of the site is dedicated to the gathering of information from all people who share the surname Lamberson/Lambertson. We Lamberson/Lambertsons share a unique name, and it is my belief that if people will share their information and pool resources in one place, many if not most of our lines will converge into one. Please email me with your comments, questions, or to contribute your information for inclusion.

Origin of the name Lamberson/Lambertson

DNA Study Begun

We have begun a DNA Study of people with the surnames Lamberson, Lambertson, Lammerson, Lamerson, and other variations. This study is being conducted through Family Tree DNA, a reputable genetic genealogy firm. The goal of the study is to group families genetically so that all known Lamberson/Lambertson/etc. families may know their heritage even if they cannot document their specific lineage to one of the major known and documented families.

In the future, I expect to customize the DNA study with my site here, linking the data I have with the tested individuals' families. But for now, you can look at the progress and results of the study at the FTDNA Lamberson DNA Study Website.

Please note: If you are interested in participating, but you are wary of the fees for the testing, PLEASE CONTACT ME! If you are from an untested major family, your fees may be waived!
