      Given his first son was born between 1724 and 1734, Lawrence may have been born as early as 1700, or as late as 1712, almost certainly in Kingston parish of Gloucester Co., Virginia, and died intestate by 9 May 1746 in Northumberland Co., Virginia, when his estate was ordered appraised by the court. The inventory was submitted by Thomas Yerby, Chas. Copedge Jr. and Jessey Robinson on 13 April 1747, and was witnessed by Mary Parrot (Northumberland Co.
