LAWRENCE Family Lineages
Below are links to Family Group Sheets on early Lawrence families. They are separate Lawrence lines which have not been linked to earlier Lawrence ancestors. As more information is learned it is hoped these Lawrence families can be merged with earlier ones. These families represent about 70% of the Lawrence's in the One-Name Study database (at least 3 generations must be known before being listed). On each Family Group Sheet if available is a link to download a gedcom file (zipped for easy downloading) on that family's descendants, a link to other Internet sites with information on that specific family line, or a link to an interested party's email address.
If you have an internet web site with information on any of the families below that is not indicated on their FGS, or if you would like an email connection to any of the families below please let me know.
If your Lawrence line is not found below please send it to me in any form for inclusion on these pages. Please include your sources!
