VA has any information on the following: 1. What happened to Susannah Lawson (wife of Bartholomew Lawson) who shows up in the census data in the range of 1795 to 1800? Supposition is that she died about 1830 in Patrick Co. 2. I am descended from Elisha Lawson and Mary Lawson (married in 1801 in Patrick with Joshua Lawson providing surety). Any information about Mary's family as I am at a dead end? 3. I am a Falling River Lawson via DNA test and the Elisha above is thought to be the 'Lisha' Lawson, son of Bartholomew/Susannah Lawson. The follow-up census data in Stokes/Surry NC may indicate an age discrepancy for him but may not be significant. Any data from records there to suggest differently? 4. Any information on Mary Lawson after Elisha died in NC in 1833? Supposition is that she may have gone back to Patrick Co? 5. In the census data for Patrick in 1795, there is a listing of a William (Boney) Lawson. Any suggestion that this could be a nickname for William 'Bartholomew' Lawson? He is listed near Susannah Lawson and there is some mentions of a 'Bartholomew' Lawson in other record listings (associated with Susannah), thus maybe a middle name for William and not another son?? I am familiar with Carl Lawson's research and have talked to him. Any new data or directions would be appreciated!! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
