The old Dutch naming convention was that your surname was a variation of your father's first name. I think the Clawson name came from the father's first name was Claus. I can't recall his last name but it might have Cornelius and his father was Cornelius van Schouw.

I'll have to do so me checking. I messed up my tree by deleting my father by mistake! I had it back to the 1400's-to Sweden and Netherlands, however much of that was taken from the trees of others so can't claim any credit. My dad's family in the US seems to have been in NY mostly. However, it would not be unreasonable for some of them to have gone to PA.Civil War period puts my 3rd ggrandfather in Ohio. You can message me directly if you like. Thanks!

Probably will need to come back another step or two. Does your tree take you back to PA? I've tracked my Clawson line in PA throughout the 1800's - but it's likely that a relative moved out.

Hello Craig. My father was also a Clawson. His name was James Richard Clawson b. 19 Oct 1925 in Manton, Michigan. His father was William A Clawson. William's father was Augustus Anthony Clawson. I can go back further if you need. Wonder if we're related in some form or another?
