We don't know how many children Clement and\or Burrell really had. As far as I can tell, Burrell and Clement never appear together in any document or census together except for some separate tax records in a single year in Stokes County, NC. We do know that Clement served in the war of 1812 in Tennessee, so he had to come to Tennesse before that. Burrell and Clement would have been the same age in 1830 (50-60). There was a 50-60 man living with John Lawson, so it could be Burrell living there if John Lawson was the younger individual. There is a record of an Elijah Lawson starting a church in Madison County, IN after he disappeared from Henry County, IN. 1830 Henry County, IN Franklin Township Clement Lawson (live next to Alexander Trent before 1830 in Hawkins County) John Lawson Washington Lawson Lacey Lawson Elijah Lawson 1840 Henry County, IN Franklin Township Clement Lawson Mason Lawson (lived next to Alexander Trent in 1830 Hawkins County) Henderson Lawson Curtis Lawson Other Townships Henderson Lawson Ransom Lawson Dallas Manis 1850 Madison County, IN Clement Lawson Curtis Lawson Mason Lawson Andrew Lawson Richard Lawson (lived next to Banks Lawson in 1840 Hawkins County) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
