Hi there,

Does anyone know the surname Lawardorn - where it could have originated from.

This is an ancestor and appartently listed Trafalgar. Rather confusing.

Hello Cupcake,
A Francis Lawardorn was born in Hanover. His father was Martin and mother Mary, nee Edwards.He married 'someone' Morrisey in Ireland. He then moved to Australia. The Trafalgar mentioned is in Victoria, Australia and it was Francis' daughter who was born there.

So, why is it not possible to find other Lawardorns in Germany, or anywhere but Australia for that matter?
