Hello I am descended from Joseph Lawrence, son of Ebenezer Lawrence and Sarah Hammond who in turn was the son of Joshua(2) Robert (1) the emigrant. I am particularly interested in Joseph lawrence b 1736/7 Rochester, Mass. the family moved to Old Furnace, Hardwick Co. Mass around 1748...... Joseph married Susannah _______ . They had 4 children registered in Athol, Mass (Levi, Sarah (my ancestor) John and Nathan) We believe that prior to living in Athol, Mass they had Hammond and Joseph Lawrence, although we have no detailed record of theiname of their parents. There was also a daughter born later to Joseph and Susannah whose name we do not know. Joseph was a Rev Soldier and "Green Mountain Boy" and, to me, the whole family lived a ' colourful' life. Joseph bought and sold land - there is a deed for a land sale in Fair Haven, Vt with Susannah's name given as Susannah Parmalee ( or a version of that name) She obviously remarried following Jos's death - he is not listed in the 1790 census for Vt. I would be most grateful if your records show anything of Joseph Lawrence b 1736/37 and in particular the maiden surname of Susannah _______ I look forward to hearing from you Florence Pelton Patterson Stratford, Ontario, Canada ----- Original Message ----- From: <jeffyjo@rocketmail.com> To: <LAWRENCE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2006 10:41 AM Subject: [LAWRENCE] Family Bible of Milo Carlos LAWRENCE and Jane A.
