I would be grateful for any information anyone might have on this family and in corresponding with any other descendants.

I'm not much use to you as I don't have a Thomas on my list but I do have a Nelson b. 1831 in New York - Catskill Mountains, Green County. Any connection do you think. It's a common name in the Lawrence family. Pat
