I should have stated that Darr Lawson appears as David Lawson on the 1880 Hawkins, TN census. The name does look like David but is not real clear, so the transcibers put it on the index as David. I am still trying to find Clinton or Martha on a census as a child in Hawkins county. I have several censuses for them in Miami, IN later on. Also have censuses for Darr and Martha Lawson in Miami, IN later on. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Thanks again, Janet
