I remember someone asked about LAWSEN CARPENTER. Just ran across this and thought I would
post it:
1860 CALHOUN CO ALA CENSUS RANGE 8 & 9
Lawsen 46 NC 1814 wagon & carriage maker
Rutha 45 NC 1815
Mary 20 NC 1840
John 17 AL 1843 farmer
Catherine F 15 AL 1845
Lawsen P 12 AL 1848
Benjamin (H?) 10 AL 1850
James M 8 AL 1852
Joseph (H?) 6 AL 1854
Emily L 5 AL 1855
Ephram M 3 AL 1857
WILEY CARPENTER 45 NC 1815 blacksmith
ARCHIBALD KIMBEL 31? wagon apprentice
__________________________________________
In the 1870 CALHOUN CO CENSUS they have more children but it is unusual the Lawsen, Ruthea
and WILEY are listed first, then the kids:
Pinkney 22 (which would be Lawsen P above)
Benjamin 20
James M 18
Macon 16
Emma 15
Monroe 12
__________________________________________
In the 1880 CALHOUN CO AL CENSUS Lawsen & Ruthea only have the two younger boys with
them,
Macon? 23 & Monroe 22 . Wyley is identified as Lawsen's brother.
