Hello Peter Re the Lawrence family Some of my ancestors were Lawrences Robert Lawrence ( with supposedly 2 brothers) were sent, as soldiers by his Britannic Majesty to Holland between the years 1664-1667. Robert was born ca 1640. They left the army and came to America Two settled in Sandwich, Mass. on piece of land near Falmouth, Mass. My ancestor was Robert Lawrence/Laurance.... His Will was dated 1704 at Barnstable. I do not know the names of the 2 other brothers. If you are interested in Robert, then let me know and I will send a ton of information on his ancestors down , well, not exactly to the present day, but more than you would ever want to know! I know my guy is 100 years too early -- still, one never knows.
