Hello Howard,

I had a look at the extracts of Griffith's Valuation of Limerick which took place in 1853. These are on John Hayes failteromhat.com website.

There were only three Lawrence families in Limerick at that time ... in fact it looks like one with three properties.

George Lawrence, Killinane Vil, Lowestown, Galbally

Hi Christopher:

 :)
Thank you for the information on George Lawrence, 1853 valuation.  Since I have 15 George Lawrence names in my data, it appears to be a common given name in the family.  But I cannot be sure of a family connection in this regard. That is, I only have that basis to believe the person may be related.  However, in reviewing "County Limerick" for LAWRENCE up, and until 1853, I find, the following:  There are no known LAWRENCE persons of my family living there 1759.   So, I wonder who is this person?   ???
