Hello new list! Id like to start right off with a search for Henry LAWRENCE, (we think) father of Benjamin, Jonathan and Polly LAWRENCE, who all married BAILEYS who say on their census records that they were born in Hadam, Conn. In 1814 there were three LAWRENCES recorded together on the tax records in Tioga county, PA: Henry LAWRENCE, age 46, Jonathan LAWRENCE, age 24, and Benjamin LAWRENCE, age 28, so we know that they had left CT by 1814, & we are hoping to locate where they came from, and think it will be near Hadam, because of their marriages to the BAILEYS from Hadam. Father: Henry LAWRENCE age 46 in 1814 (born about 1768?) Mother: ?? Children: Three LAWRENCES married three BAILEYS : LAWRENCE BAILEY Benjamin b 14 Aug 1786 CT m Aseneth b Apr 1790 Hadam, CT Polly CT m Griffin Hadam, CT Jonathan CT m Betsey Hadam, CT All LAWRENCES and Baileys were married in and lived in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, and founded Lawrence Corners in Rutland Township, PA. Benjamin and Aseneth (BAILEY) LAWRENCE known children: John Norris Lawrence b 11 Jul. 1822 Tioga County, PA William Lawrence b 1829 Tioga county, PA We have lost contact with the Lawrence descendants that we feel sure are still living in and around Tioga county, PA and Elmira, NY.
