Author: GayleEllison29 Surnames: Hutchens/Hutchins, Shore(s), Braswell, Lawson, Brandon, Hill Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lawson/6719.4.3.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: The name "Telitha" appears in the Hutchins family in Surry County. I believe it descends from Telitha Braswell who received a 100-acre land grant in Surry County, NC, in 1795. A Jane Braswell married a John Hutchens in 1792 in Surry County and in this family appears the name "Telitha" several times. Do you have any Hutchens/Hutchins close by or connected with your Lawson family? You have in this family many names that are in my Elizabeth Lawson m. Boardvine Braswell: George, Thomas, Caroline, Emaline, Nancy, Eli. Are you saying that Telitha Lawson was born out of wedlock to Isabelle Lawson? Elkanah Hutchens, son of John Hutchens and Jane Braswell, b. 1803 Surry County, NC, m. Frances Pilcher and they moved to Greene County, IL, in 1829 and then to Marion County, KS. They had a daughter, Mary Talitha Hutchens b. 1838 m. Samuel B. Hill. Ellis Hutchens, son of John Hutchens and Jane Braswell, b. 1805 Surry County, NC, m. Mary (Polly) Shore(s) and moved to Morgan County, IL, in 1829. This couple also had a dughter named Mary Talitha Hutchens b. 1845, Brentwood, Washington Co., AR, and a daughter, Eliza Eveline, and a daughter Trity Caroline. The Hutchens book said that soon after their marriage, Ellis and Mary emigrated with a colony to Illinois, being among the pioneer settlers of Morgan County. Another unusual name in the Hutchens family is Quintilla, b. 1801. She was a daughter of John Hutchens and Jane Braswell, m. George Calviness Brandon and they moved to Green County, IN.

I have checked my extensive databases and cannot find a John Lawson born in Manchester in 1805. Oddly I do have a John Lawson with a wife names Emily who appear in census records from 1850-1870 always at the same location. I say oddly because this is Paducah, McCracken Co. KY. These show John Lawson born England about 1817, he was an engineer but I do not see any children. I would be very interested in the full information in the article you have, I am not sure if you can scan this and e-mail to me at gdl@yorksgen.co.uk Many thanks in anticipation Gerald Lawson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: davmargilbert Surnames: Lawson, Speed Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lawson/6736/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I have a newspaper article about John Lawson, born 1805 in Manchester, England, at his death in Maplewood, Missouri in the home of his step-daughter, Mrs. E. M. McFadden. The article says that he built the first locomotive engine in England. He came to America when he was 26 years old. He lived in Baltimore and Philadelphia, Petersburg, VA, and Alabama. While in Alabama he married Miss Emily Speed. He fought in the Civil War where he gave several of his boats to the Confederate Government. He built a gunboat, the General Polk. President Cleveland appointed him Government Engineer on the Federal building in Paducah. The article doesn't have a date. It does have a picture of John Lawson.

The DNA of these two lines seem to indicate they are related. This Thomas might be Drewry's brother that moved to South Carolina instead of moving to west to Tennessee. More infor on Thomas Lawson: - Tom Lawson is enumerated in the 1790 Ninety-six District, Edgefield County, South Carolina Census. In his household are 3 males 16 year and older, 1 male under 16 years and 1 female. My guess is that the 3 males over 16 years are Thomas Sr., John, Davenport, male under 16 years would be Thomas Jr. Thomas, Davenport and John Lawson are enumerated in the 1800 Edgefield County, South Carolina Census. Thomas is living 3 households from Davenport but John is some distances away. In Thomas' household are 1 male under 10 years (Amos Banks), 1 male 10-16 years (Thomas Jr.), 1 male 45 years and older, 1 female 10-16 years and 1 female 45 years and older. He has no slaves. Thomas Lawson Sr. is enumerated in the 1810 Abbeville District, South Carolina Census. Thomas Lawson Jr. is living next door to him and a Amos Lawson is living not far from them. In Thomas Senior's household are 1 male over 45 and 1 female over 45. He has no slaves. Minutes of the County Court, Edgefield County, South Carolina - 1785-1795, complied by Brent H.

Wit Sampson Butler, Joel Swearingen, Jesse Simkins. /s/ Arthur Simkins. Proven 19 May 1808 by Sampson Butler; E. Brenan D.C.C. Recorded 19 May 1808. The following is work done by Stephen M. Lawson of Port Orchard, Washington; Given names used for the descendants of Thomas seem to indicate that there was a connection to the family of Pleasant 'Jimmy' Lawson of South Carolina. Refer to the Lawson Letters [LL], edited by Mary Alice Lawson, Redding, CA. Pleasant 'Jimmy' Lawson - One source [LL page 44] gives his sons as indicated below. He was apparently born about 1725, probably in VA. Please note that all this is conjecture, with no proof as yet, but name patterns certainly suggest the possibility. There are many references in the Lawson Letters to the Lawson's mentioned here, but no positive evidence of a relationship to Thomas Lawson, Sr. Thomas Lawson - b. by 1755. The census records of Abbeville District and Edgefield Co., SC for 1790, 1800, and 1810 indicate he and his wife were born prior to 1755, and that they had 3 sons and one daughter by 1790. They probably married by 1780, earlier if they had older children (very possible). His name is given as Tom in 1790, Thomas in 1800, and Thos. in 1810. The 1810 census record for Thos. and Thos. Jun. is preceded by: "That part of Abbeville District South of the road leading from the upen Bridge on Locane to Swances Ferry by Col. John Logans and East of said Creek." The children listed below are based on census records and other circumstantial evidence. Records naming his children have not yet been located. Thomas - Possibly Thomas Lawson, Sr. (b. by 1755), a resident of Abbeville District, SC in 1790. Children of Thomas Lawson, Sr.: Davenport; John; Thomas; Amos Banks; a daughter; and Mordecai (b. about 1797) married Frances Stephens.
