  • Great gains in family tree research are being made by having a DNA test. These tests indicate relationships with others doing the test and also the likely family origin, which in the case of Linebargers would tell the likely European country of our ancestry. If any male descendant of John and Mary Linebarger who has a Linebarger surname would like the test done to help out our research and for his own curiosity, please contact the webpage coordinator for funding (e-mail address at bottom of this page).

Lineberger:
  • Lineberger page, The Linebergers of the Lincoln County, North Carolina area were there coincidentally with the Linebargers. The names were sometimes spelled many ways for a particular person in different records, e.g. Lineberger, Linebarger, Leinberger, but there was a differentiation in the mainly Linebarger and mainly Lineberger lineages. There seem to be at least three bunches of families not yet connectable: the Linebergers apparently from the descendants of the "three brothers" via Virginia, the Linebargers of Pennsylvania from which came John Linebarger, and Peter Lineberger who seems connected to the Linebargers--even these assumptions are debatable.
