A descendant made a claim, somewhere on the internet / a message board, that this particular Ambrose was a Native American who took his wife Charlotte's last name so he may not be a Lawson but his wife may have been. Now, weren't the descendants of William the Scottish Rebel in Morgan Co., KY later on ? re: Mabe connection, as you know, there was an Edmund Mabe and Edmund Lawson and Edmund Hall. Reuben Mabe Sr. near "Samuel"/?old Clemuel/Clement Lawson and Banks near Reuben Mabe Jr.. Clemmons Lawson / Reuben Mabe connection via court record. I wonder if there is a Mabe-Hall connection or further Lawson-Mabe connection.
