I'm descended from Charles Law who immigrated from West Riding, Yorkshire, England in 1857. He settled in Utah and married three sisters: Emma, Elizabeth, and Hannah Bocock. He died in 1862 and all three sisters remarried. Most of the Laws I have met in the intermountain west have been descendants of this Charles, but not all. I am descended through Hannah's third child, Isaac Brough Law. Are you connected to this family?

Are you related to any Laws' from England and Utah? And is your last name Laws? My mother's name is Sandy Laws and I thought it was a funny coincidence. Kim

I don't want anyone to think they are limited to posting queries on the list. Any information related to the research of the LAW/LAWS, etc. family is certainly relevant. So, unless this is a file attachment, why don't you go ahead and post to the entire list. If it IS a file attachment, please let us know and we can contact you privately to receive it.

Jean; I would be interested in seeing the article about the early Laws family. Hopefully one day I can connect to them. Sandy.

I would be very interested in that info. Please send it to me.

I would certainly be very interested in receiving that. I am trying to find the family of Eleanor Laws, b. probably around 1690, m. Robert Alexander Edwards possibly in Scotland. Details are very vague. The Laws family name carried down as a given name (grandaughter named Eleanor Laws Edwards.) Thank you for help. Mary K. Rau, Virginia Beach, VA <[email protected]>

Hello Jean, Yes, *please* send me that history info you have on the Law family. My particular branch seems to have emigrated from Scotland to Henrico County, Va. Thanks so much.

Hi Law/Laws researchers, Sometime ago a young man in England sent me one and a half pages about the history, name, crests, coat of arms, and names of some of the original Law/Laws settlers in the new world. It dawned on me that many of you might like to read it. Since it is not a query, I don't think I should post it. However, if you want to contact me I will send it to you. It is very interesting.

Hi everyone, This is my first post and a summary of my LAWS ancestors. LAWS, James born abt. 1711 where? We don't know if he was born in this country or was an immigrant. He married Eunice HOSLEY/HORSLEY 13 Nov 1736 in Billerica, Middlesex, MA.

If James was not a immigrant, I would like to find his parents and siblings. LAWS, John christened 13 Jul 1748 in Billerica, Middlesex, MA. He married Sarah SPALDING in Chelmsford, Middlesex, MA. Dec. 20, 1774. John served in the Revolution. They moved to Sharon, Hillsborough, NH by 1800 NH census and 1810 census.

Would especially like to know where or when Sarah and John died, and where buried. The LAWS house owned by his nephew, William, in NH is now a museum. LAWS, Elam born abt. 1782 in Billerica, Middlesex, MA. His parents were John LAWS and Sarah SPALDING. His family moved to Sharon, Hillsborough, NH by 1800.

Henry Henderson), Elam, Jr. -1810 (no further inf. he may have died young), John-1812, Job-1815, Joseph-1818, twins *James and Elizabeth (believed to have m. John Hamilton) they were b 1820 in Franklin Co., OH. The family later moved to Rush Co, IN. where Elam d abt. 1826, would like to know where Elam was buried. Guardians were appointed for the four youngest children until they were of age. Also would like to find information on the siblings and their descendants. Family stories say that Elizabeth was killed by lightening in her home. Other stories are that the brothers fought on different sides in the Civil War. James was in the Union army. LAWS, James b 20 Dec He m. Mary Ann "Polly" LOWE 11 May 1845 in Rush Co., IN. They moved to IL. and then to KS. James d. 21 Apr 1878 in Franklin Co., KS.

Hi All! I'm researching the LAWS in Carroll Co., MS. Also I found an Andrew LAWS in eastern NC associated w/ my HOWARD family. These Howards also ended up in Carroll Co., MS, so I wonder??? 5/1786 in Onslow Co., NC Andrew Laws bought land, my direct ancestor Titus Howard was the testator. Titus Howard, Jr moved to MS & had many descedants. Anyone know this Andrew??
