Out on a family treelimb

An intriguing new internet find… the http://www.drwilliams.org/genealogy/2/30609.htm site page, which claims a link back in time from Cornelius Maddox to Edward Maddox to Thomas Maddox, and then even further back to a lord in Wales.  These are links we’ve struggled with for years.  The goal of our research is less about our European origins than it is about our American heritage, but the drwilliams.org claim makes us wonder.  We’ve asked him for the sources of his claims.
