It looks like you have typed out all of this information again for this email message--quite a bit of work! You could also have given the following link:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/431003/Lineages/JM2_John%20Matthew%20Ewing.pdf
which contains the same information, except for the children of Robert and Mary Williamson Ewing. I prepared the lineage in the link from what you sent me before for the Y-DNA Project. I can add the other children if you like, though the easiest way for me to do that would be for you to send me a GED or copy of your genealogy file. One of the benefits of having our Y-DNA lineages on line is that if you want to share a lineage with someone, such as the readers of this list, all you have to do is sent the link! The limitations of the Y-DNA lineages is 1) they do not cite references, 2) they give only minimal information about paternal lineages that follow the Y-DNA--thus giving short shrift to the female lines and 3) they do not have a way to include stories, events and discussion.
The Ewing Genealogy Documentation (EGD) Project takes this another step beyond. It allows for you to post as complete a genealogy as you wish, with not only the bare facts, but also references, research notes, even photos if you want. Of course, it is more trouble to get ready, but if you have your data in a genealogy program it will be less trouble than you think. Take a look at the James Ewing of Inch EGD on-line:
http://www.ewingfamilyassociation.org/EGD_Project/James_of_Inch/index.htm
and at the John Ewing of Carnashannagh EGD:
http://www.ewingfamilyassociation.org/EGD_Project/Document_JohnOfCarnashannagh.html
The idea of the EGD project is to foster collaborative research by explicitly giving references and writing research notes for areas of uncertainty, so that researchers can build on one another's work. One of the main benefits of posting an EGD genealogy, is that ever after you will not have to type lineage info into email messages--all you will need to do is send links. And once you are gone, your hard work will remain behind so that future generations of researchers can benefit from it and add to it.
Posting an EGD genealogy requires that you have your family data in a genealogy program and that you contact and work with the EGD Committee Chair, Bill Riddle, to get it into shape for posting. Posting a Y-DNA lineage requires that you have a participant in the Y-DNA Project and you send a lineage to me, preferably in the form of a GED or genealogy program file. I do not vet or criticize these lineages, but rather just post what I am given, but I do put them into a uniform format.
Best to all,
David Neal Ewing
