256 Pleasant 'Jimmy' LAWSON. Born abt 1725 in VA prob. Died bef 1784.
Research: One source [LL44] gives his sons as indicated. He was apparently born about 1725, probably in VA. Please note that all this is conjecture, with no proof as yet, but name patterns certainly suggest the possibility. There are many references in The Lawson Letters to the LAWSONs mentioned here, but no positive evidence of a relationship to Thomas LAWSON, Sr.
Listed are some given names in several LAWSON families. The family of Thomas is based on Census records. All these families had roots in SC, and all had at least some family members known to have lived in TN.

310 David FOX. Born abt 1700.
Research: The names of the parents of Mary (FOX) MOBERLY were first read in Neeley Notes, by Hazel Gibson Jones (Lubbock,TX: about 1993). Land and tithe records reveal that Clement MOBERLY, who married Mary FOX about 1742, was living in Lundenburg Co., VA in 1748, and perhaps at the time of his marriage. Clement signed a petition in 1741 to establish a parish at Frederick, Prince Georges Co., MD, so it may be that he and Mary were married there. Clement and Mary lived in that part of Lundenburg County (formed from Brunswick County in 1746) which became Bedford County in 1753, as revealed by Bedford Co., VA deeds of Oct. 20, 1755 and Aug. 27, 1759, and removed to Craven Co., SC (part of Camden District which became Fairfield County) by Sep. 3, 1759, the date of a deed recorded in Bedford Co., VA from "Clement Moberly of Craven County, South Carolina." [Hill & Hill-Moberly Connections of Fairfield County, South Carolina, by George A. Hill (Ponca City, OK: 1961), page 235-38. Unfortunately, the compiler did not include information on the FOX family.] It is therefore believed (at this time) that the family of David and Elizabeth FOX were residents of Prince Georges Co., MD or Lundenburg Co., VA during the birth of most, if not all, of their children, and the family probably moved to Fairfield Co., SC (Camden District) about 1759 - along with the MOBERLY family.
