Some Gregorys in my files of Upper (western) Lunenburg and Mecklenburg Counties, VA, the parts adjoining Charlotte Co. and Halifax Co. on the west.  Charlotte Co. and Mecklenburg Co. were part of Lunenburg until 1765. Mecklenburg and Halifax border on the south the North Carolina counties of : Person, Granville, Vance & Warren.

Decendants note: This Gregory line needs to be represented in the DNA GREGORY PROJECT.
I have not researched the Lower Mecklenburg Co., VA Gregorys. Among the Lower (eastern) Mecklenburg Gregorys are the following households on the 1840 CensusJohn W. Gregory; Rich. C. Gregory, Jr.;  Rich. C. Gregory, Sr.; and Francis R. Gregory.  I am not aware if any male Gregory descendants of these lines have participated in a Gregory YDNA study/jgs Miscellaneous items of these Gregorys will be placed in Lower Mecklenburg Gregorys..

YDNA Results of Gregory male participants can be found at YSEARCH a Free Public Service from Family Tree DNA .  Join the excitement and have your Gregory named male brother or cousin participate!  At least the 37-marker test is recommended; also, be sure to specify the GREGORY PROJECT to benefit from the project discount.
