Surnames: Chandler Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/SaB.2ACI/580.1 Message Board Post: The Ralph Lawson you mentioned in your message is my maternal grandfather. The only thing that I know, and am not positive about, is that Pearl moved to California later in life and took care of her mother, our great grandmother, Mary Jane Ella Burkes Alexander Lawson. Feel free to contact me as I may have some more information that you haven't gotten yet. I would also love to know anything you have on the family. As you can already tell, I'm sure, it is a hard trail to trace.
