I notice your post was in 1999 have you found anything. Also, I would like to have Sarah's parents - I don't have that.

I have a Joseph Lawrence in my family....... which goes like this: Robert Lawrence born in England ca 1640 emigrated to Sandwich, Mass had 7 children ( one was a Joseph who married Hannah Chadwick, the they had a son Joseph who lived in or around Plymoth, Mass back in the early 1700's) However, Robert's son Joshua was my ancestor, and his son was Ebenezer who married Sarah Hammond.......Their son Joseph born 12 January 1738 in Rochester, Mass, moved to Hardwick County, Mass before 28 Dec 1748. This Joseph married Susannah_________ and their children were registered in Athol, Mass. I have been unable to find the surname of Susannah and this drives me crazy!!! nor any marriage documentation. Joseph was a Rev soldier and the family ended up in Vermont which seems a likely area for those emigrating northward to Canada. There may have been other children, but Joseph and Susannah ( both died in Vermont, I believe) were: Levi, Sarah ( my ancestor) John and Nathan. Levi emigrated to Brant/Oxford County in the late 1790's Sarah married James Pelton (they married in Vermont & emigrated viaChateaugay Co. on the s. shore of the St. Lawrence), and in a few years moved westward to Oxford County where bro. Levi had established himself. I hope the above will give you something to go on and if you should come across the surname of Susannah, I would be VERY glad to hear from you. Also, I hope this is the Joseph Lawrence you seek.
