Surnames: VANCE, LAWSON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/lNB.2ACI/3959 Message Board Post: Joseph Lawson married Mary Vance in 1908. According to the cemetery records that are online, Mary died in 1923. Nelson Lawson married Nora Vance in 1912. At some point, Nora Vance Lawson married Joseph Lawson. Joseph, Mary and Nora are all listed in the Furnace Creek Cemetery, Washington Co., MO. online. <http://www.rootsweb.com/~mowashin/cemetery/furnace.html> This is where I found that Nora married Joseph [which could be incorrect. I believe his date of birth is incorrect as he supposedly was over 21 in 1908 when he married Mary.]. Nelson is listed on the Sutton Farm Cemetery, Washington County, MO. web site <http://www.rootsweb.com/~mowashin/cemetery/sutton.html> but there aren't any dates for him. I would like to find out when Nora's 2nd marriage (to Joseph Lawson) took place. I would also like to find out which children were hers with her 1st husband, hers with her 2nd husband and which were Mary's children with Joseph. I have found several of the Lawsons in the online cemetery records, but some of the children are listed as children of Nelson and Mary, which I believe to be incorrect. There were a lot of children in this family. One was Hester (Lawson) Woods and her obituary is on this message board at <http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=message&r=rw&p=localities.northam.usa.states.missouri.counties.washington&m=901> which list her many siblings. This has me going in circles. Has anyone researched this family? I could use some help. Thank you!!
