Please let me know. I do not know this person. I got the obit from the GEN-OBIT mailing list. I try to scan for any LAWS and post any I find to the list. My husband's mother was a LAWS - thus my interest in the surname. Her family was from Yancey Co. - then moved to Rutherford and Cleveland Counties, NC. You might try contacting the funeral home listed in the obit for further information. You might be able to find the funeral home telephone number on this web site: http://www.555-1212.com or http://www.switchboard.com Good luck!
