Looking for information on John Lawrence (1818-1898) and family

John Lawrence of Dderw, Rhayader, married Sarah Rowland(s) at Abbeycwmhir in 1842.

From the late 1840s the family lived at Pencaehaidd, Nant Gwyllt near Cwmdauddwr, Rhayader and raised the following family:

Sarah: Born 1843 

John: Born 1845.

Eliza: Born 1847

Margaret: Born 1849

Caroline: Born 1850

Winifred: Born 1851

Jacob: Born 1852.

Martha: Born 1854

Jane: Born 1865

Richard: Born 1858

John Lawrence worked as a shepherd for the Lewis Lloyd family of Nant Gwyllt for 50 years. He died in an accident while working for them in 1898.

Any further information on the above family and their descendants is welcome.

Thanks.
