John Lawrence & Clara Martin - Are you related?
« on: Sunday 04 January 09 23:24 GMT (UK) »
When I was in Ushuaia in Argentina there were 2 gravestones that had been brought into the prison museum as part of the history of the area. I thought they maybe of interest if they are on your family tree.

John Lawrence was born in c1844/3 and a Spanish wiki site mentions he was born in Great Malvern, there is an 1851 lad who fits the age born there. He was married to Clara Martin in 1869 in Worcestershire, a wee bit on the family can be found here...

Details of the work undertaken in Tierra del Fuego is here.

There are also baptismal records that maybe of interest if he is on your tree...

All the best,
