Danke Carlos, Ich verstehe ja alles, kein probleme, aber schreibe ich auf Englische, so others can read with and perhaps pick up a clue.
Amazing if you think that the full name of Lawrence Anthony Chism comes up often, both names together. For the enefit of other readers you are looking for a man with this name, and he is born around 1946, and has possible connections in Tuscaloosa Alabama, and in Mississipi (which is not far from Tuscaloosa.
I dont live in Germany, but have some contacts there, such as in Bad Kreuznach, an der Nahe.
You also asked about Norse DNA. This is DNA which shows up in the decendents of Vikings from the northern lands. The DNA shows up only in the direct male line. With every male person, the Y chromosome will only be inherited from the father, and so this Y chromosome, when looking at a Family Tree or AhnenTafel will follow only the line from father to father to father etc, right back to the very beginning.
In the case of the Chisholms, it is believed, not yet proven, that the main branch is descended from one of the Normans who came to Britain after 1066AD, The Normans themselves, particularly the leadership circle, were descended from the Vikings who raided the North coast of France. Not all Chisholms and Chisms however are blonging to this line, there are many who are descended from the earlier inhabitants of Britain, the Picts for example,and also from later Irish invaders, the Gaelic people.
If you would have a son, and he did a DNA test on the Y chromosome, he would not be showing an answer which reflected his parents culture,heritage and upbringing, he would not be matching to the typical DNA signatures displayed by various members of the Gerber families, he would get a result which would most likely be that of a Norse Viking, an ancient Pict of Scotland,a Gaelic warrior of Ireland, perhaps a Briton of pre-Roman England or an Anglo-Saxon. If you wanted to see more about this sort of thing its quite common in internet sources, looking for Y DNA testing, and looking at places such as FamilyTree DNA. I am not sure whether these sites have German language avaiable, they are generally American sites, although Oxford University is famous also for this type of research.
You nevr know, you might even be a genetic cousin to me ( and I am not any of those described above)
