Oops--Josiah was my 4th great uncle. His brother Garrett is my direct ancestor. Same family--I was looking at my a cousin's tree when I claimed Josiah. Would love any info on the family. We looked for 40 years just to find the link between my ggrandfather John Clawson to where he came from as he put his children in an orphanage. Cannot believe the rich history on the family we have uncovered in the last few years and will be glad to share too. Email me directly at djeanclark(a)comcast.net.

Hello,
I too am descended from a Josiah Clawson who died in 1844, in Allen County, Ohio. -- There were a couple of them in the area at that time so it's a bit hard to actually prove his ancestry. --
In her book, "Coming Together", Winnona Garmhausen (http://www.amazon.com/Winona-Garmhausen/e/B001K8TU0W)feels that most Clawsons (or Klassen) are descendants of Gerrit (Garrett). --
I had my Y-Chromosome tested recently and it went straight to Holland. --
Best,
Perk (:>)

Are you talking about Gerritt Kluaassen born in the Netherlands in 1730? He was married to Mary in Greene County Pa. in 1758. They had a son Josiah. He was my 5th ggrandfather.
