-* Robert Lawrence (b. ca. 1853) and Peter Kane Lawrence (b. ca. 1859), listed here as possible children of Robert Lawrence (b. ca. 1806), are listed in the 1880 U.S. census, in the household with Robert Lawrence (b. ca. 1806).  Relationships were incorrectly recorded by the census taker.  Nobody is listed as head of household.  Robert (b. ca. 1806) is listed as "son", and his mother Catherine is listed as "mother".  The two males Peter Kane and Robert,aged in their twenties, are both labeled "brother",presumably both are sons of Catherine, and brothers of Samuel.  <br>The two infants, Washington W. LA.,age 2 years, and Annie Gertrude, age 1 month, appear after Peter Kane Lawrence's name, and would normally be presumed to then be his children.   This might suggest that Peter Kane Lawrence had been married, and that possibly his wife died at the birth of the infant Annie Gertrude.    Wilson Washington Lafayette Lawrence is found listed elsewhere as born 8 May 1878,the oldest son of Peter Kane Lawrence's brother [[Samuel Lawrence]]. It is clearly the same child.  Samuel may have adopted Peter Kane's son, or the two children in the 1880 census may in fact be the children of Samuel.  The census is clearly not well recorded.   The infant Annie Gertrude does not appear among the children of Samuel.  She may not have survived, regardless of whose child she was.
+* 1880 census:  Robert Lawrence (b. ca. 1853) and Peter Kane Lawrence (b. ca. 1859) are listed in the 1880 U.S. census, in the household with Samuel Lawrence (b. ca. 1847).  Relationships were incorrectly recorded by the census taker.  Nobody is listed as head of household, so it is unclear to whom the listed relationships refer.  Samuel (b. ca. 1847) is listed as "son", and his mother Catherine is listed as "mother".  The two males Peter Kane and Robert, aged in their twenties, are both labeled "brother", and are presumably both sons of Catherine, and brothers of Samuel.  <br>The two infants, Washington W. La.,age 2 years, and Annie Gertrude, age 1 month, appear after Peter Kane Lawrence's name, and would normally be presumed to then be his children.   This might suggest that Peter Kane Lawrence had been married, and that possibly his wife died at the birth of the infant Annie Gertrude.    Wilson Washington Lafayette Lawrence is however found listed as born 8 May 1878, the oldest son of Samuel Lawrence, (who was married in 1877). It is clearly the same child.  Samuel may have adopted his brother Peter Kane's son, or the two children in the 1880 census may in fact both be the children of Samuel.  The census is clearly not well recorded.  <br> The child Wilson Washington Lafayette Lawrence does appear (but infant Annie Gertrude does not appear) among the children of Samuel Lawrence listed by [[John Thomas Wilson]](grandson of [[Elizabeth Stoughton]], who was [[Lucinda Ann Stoughton]]'s sister and would have been an aunt of these children).  Annie Gertrude may not have survived, regardless of whose child she was, and been lost to memory.    If number of names is a clue to parentage, Wilson Washington Lafayette Lawrence's having 4 names compares to Robert Lester Cleveland Lawrence's 4 names, suggesting Samuel Lawrence as the father of both.
