Have no idea if this will help but there are four Lawson families represented in this narrative with a Clem Lawson near the end. The first Lawson family given is Nathan Lawson b ca 1778, a son of Nathan Lawson b ca 1755 VA. Nathan b ca 1778 and his son Nathan b ca 1813 are shown in the 1850 Miller County, MO Census and lived on the Dubbert place which was right on the Miller/Maries County line. The David (A.) Lawson with sons Riley and Wiley was a son of Nathan Lawson b ca 1778 (brother of Nathan b ca 1813) and also lived in Miller County, MO and is shown there. Riley was William Riley Lawson and I THINK lived on Dog Creek in a county farther south in MO. http://www.hwy28spur.com/king/kh_ch52.htm -----Original Message----- From: lawson-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:lawson-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of gc-gateway@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 3:58 PM To: LAWSON-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LAWSON] Partial description of Gaines Lawson This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
