Driggs family : ウィキペディア英語版 | Driggs family
The Driggs Family is a prominent American business family descended from Joseph Driggs of Middletown and East Haddam, Connecticut (died November 1748).〔Howard R. Driggs, Driggs Family History (Salt Lake City: Publisher's Press, 1959)〕 ==Origin of Joseph Driggs==
Joseph Driggs is of undetermined ancestry. In 1959, Howard R. Driggs, in his genealogy of the Driggs family, suggested that Joseph Driggs may have been born Josias Drake, Jr., the son of Josias Janszen Drats (sometimes incorrectly referred to as Josias de Raet) of Amsterdam and Aeltje Brouwer of Gowanus.〔Driggs (1959), p. 23〕 His statements were based upon the work of some earlier Driggs family researchers, and Howard R. Driggs was careful to caution that no proof had been found to support the claim. This "theory" has now been disproved through the Y-DNA testing of a confirmed direct descendant of Joseph Driggs and confirmed descendants of Josias Janszen Drats. Results of the testing show that any common ancestor of Joseph Driggs and Josias Janszen Drats would have lived more than 35,000 years ago.〔Chris Chester, "Joseph Driggs is Not Josias Drake, Jr.," 2008. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~brouwergenealogydata/Research/joseph%20driggs%20is%20not%20josias%20drake.pdf 〕 Based on the DNA testing and a review of old family letters and stories, it appears that Joseph Driggs was the anglicized name of José Rodrigues from Portugal.〔"Joseph Driggs of Conn. was actually José Rodrigues of Portugal," online at http://genforum.genealogy.com/driggs/messages/192.html 〕
