DNA and Related Technology Connects Family. Session and panel discussion from the 45th Annual Lewis family Reunion on Friday, August 13, 2021. Panelists discuss how the internet revealed information about past and present relatives as hosted by cousin Shawn Tate, Lewis Family Reunion president, and Francis Winters descendant.
Due to the Covid 19 pandemic, the Lewis family held their 45h annual reunion in a virtual setting. One branch of the family, Robert Lewis, married Francis Winters. Francis’s father was Alex Winter, and Ancestry DNA proves that Alex and James Winters were relatives. I believe that they were actually brothers.
The Panel consisted of cousins Shawn Tate, Lealyn Lewis, Mareshah Jackson, and yours truly, Leonard Mixon. All Winters family DNA matches.
