Horace's father was Samuel Adam's Lawrence. My family has his portrait and his wife's Laura, dau. of Michael Kelley of Charleston, S. C. I haven't found out where the Milton comes from. I just started doing the tree this month. A distant relative has access to the diaries of Julia Lawrence, Horace's sister. They are a day by day account of her life and mention many family members. The relative is hoping to get all of the diaries transcribed and on line some day. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
