Most of the sources for my information on this person are in my possession (for instance, John Lennox's probate documents), in records kept by the Simcoe County settlers database and Innisfil Township historical society, in Canadian census records and some Ancestry.com records. I will be adding information and source information over time.
John, his brother William, and their sister Elizabeth McCartney all emigrated to Ontario in the 1820s, and information about their families and descendants can be found in Donald Dean Parker's Our Family History https://archive.org/details/ourfamilyhistory00park.

Think this James Lennox is connected.https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Lennox-493 A couple who seem to be related to this John Lennox have had a DNA match to a descendant of this James Lennox. Has the person that provided this profile had a DNA test done?
Kind regards,
Sue
I’ve had an autosomal test done, but since this is my mother’s family, and the last male Lennox ancestor I have was my great-great-grandfather John Ross Lennox (1852-1902), there is no y-dna available to me for testing. I wish there were! Lynn
My John Lennox did have a brother James (b. about 1792 in Ireland; died in ?, probably also in Ireland) and a son named James (b. 1821 in Derry, d. 1901 in Ontario).
Have you got a gedmatch number for comparison?
