I have just found out that an ancestor connected to our Laws family from Hampshire England, emigrated to United States. I have not found out when but they are on 1870 and 1880 census in Eagle Harbour Mitchegan. They are Jacob and Lucy Laws (Lawes) with children Henry and George. They also had a daughter Elizabeth. We believe she married a John Bond and was on 1880 census with daughter Blanche. The place they lived was called Olive, in Mitchegan state. . Both Elizabeth and John were born in England. I have already found the death of Lucy and her son Henry. Any information or help appreciated.

THANKYOU so very much Sandra. It would have taken me ages to find all this. the surname of Elizabth Bond is a bit worrying but she may have been married before. I found her death info which states her father was Jacob Laws. The only missing death is for JACOB LAWS. It shows up on Ancestry in Mitchegan deaths but I dont have access to site.

Hello Sandra. I now think I may have the wrong Bond family as I found a marriage between an Annie E Scouls aged only 15 and John W Bond. Her father is down as Scouls. The marriage was on Familysearch. So I will have to rethink what the connection was. Whoever gave info for the Elizabeth Bond death cert must have had info that Jacob Laws was her father. Gets complicated doesnt it. You think you have it and then its blown apart. I shall carry on searching. Thanks anyway for your help. I will have a look at the George Laws who was son of Jacob for his descendants. >:(

Had another look thru earlier - its a strange one - unless there was 2 marriages. ::)

Further to my Laws enquiry. I have put that Bond family aside for now as I am unsure its correct. I have looked through all US grave records and not found Jacob Laws anywhere. I did find George Laws 1910 census details on Familysearch. He is married to Elizabeth who was born Mitchegan. I thiunk her maiden name was Otis as this shows up on there. The children were Frank H Laws born 1892. Rose Laws b 1893, Sadie Laws b1899 another married daughter Mary and son in law Harry G Buck. Any info with regard to these children would be great to find. George dies in 1911 as his gravestone shows.
All help is much appreciated. Thankyou.

Hello. We are seeking further help from Rootsweb on our LAWES/LAWS family from Andover area in Hampshire. We have had vauable help regarding Jacob Laws and his family who emigrated from Andover to Mitchegan but now need help in looking for his brother LLOYD LAWS. hE WAS BAPTISED IN mARCH 1819 . His parents were John and Hannah Laws nee Witts. Lloyd was on 1841 census with parents and sister Emma in Hampshire. He then disapppears for over 40 years until he appears on Andover 1891 census in Hampshire with an Elizabeth Stockwell and also Sarah and Harry Stockwell. This is in New Street Andover where coincidentally Jacob and Lucy Laws lived on 1851 census before emigrating. We have looked all over for Lloyd in these lost years and wondered if he too emigrated. All help appreciated as before. On 1891 census he was down as a widower so therefore he married at some time but where. We could not find a marriage. Thanks in advance.

Further to my Laws enquiry. I have put that Bond family aside for now as I am unsure its correct. I have looked through all US grave records and not found Jacob Laws anywhere. I did find George Laws 1910 census details on Familysearch. He is married to Elizabeth who was born Mitchegan. I thiunk her maiden name was Otis as this shows up on there. The children were Frank H Laws born 1892. Rose Laws b 1893, Sadie Laws b1899 another married daughter Mary and son in law Harry G Buck. Any info with regard to these children would be great to find. George dies in 1911 as his gravestone shows.
All help is much appreciated. Thankyou.
I realize this is a dated thread and rather random, but I just discovered this exchange while searching for a relative’s grave site I had once visited in Eagle Harbor, MI. George Laws is a my Great-great-grandpa and Mary and Harry Buck are my great grandparents. It’s rather fascinating to see this link to family that is evidently still in the U.K. (And as luck would have it, I will be in London this week for about 6 days!). Did you ever find the links you were looking for in this?
