Please can anyone help me in researching the above Richard Lawrence born in 1715 in Stow-in-Lindsey. Richard had a son born in 1747 and this son married an Elizabeth Crowder born somewhere in Lincolnshire in 1747. Richard and Elizabeth moved to Stickney in Lincolnshire where Richard's occupation was as a farmer. They had 9 children all of whom were born in Stow in Lindsey.
One of these children was also called Richard Lawrence. born in 1775 in Stow in Lindsey, married an Isabella Groose in Stickney in 1803c., and he died in 1820 age 45 in Stickney.
I would love to discover more info about the original Richard born 1715 i.e.. who he married?, what his occupation was etc.
I am assuming that a local church would have records going back as far as 1715 and I have tried looking on a well known site, but it won't allow me back in as they keep telling me my e-mail address is already registered ( which is probably me but there is no way of explaining that to them).
Thanks for any help you can give me.

There is also a will for Richard Lawrence at Stow in the Lincolnshire Archives. "Reference Name LCC WILLS/1850/219"

Hi again, Sorry I was too quick to respond regarding the Will. The Will I have a copy of was that of a later Richard whose Will was registered in Stickney. He was the Richard who died at 45.
I have tried to look up the info on the twins you gave me but find the lincs site quite confusing and difficult.I will try to work it out, in the meantime thanks again for Will info too.
