The
Lawlor Family
Catherine
Lawlor, c. 1910
|
My
grandfather on my
mother's side was
Thomas F. Lang.
His mother was Catherine
Lawlor from County
Kerry, Ireland.
Catherine came to
America with her
family sometime
in the 1860's. She
came with her father,
John Lawlor, mother
Hanora Reardon Lawlor,
brother John and
sister Mary.
I
recently found that
there was another
sister named Honora,
and there is Jeremy
listed with them
in the census, but
I have no more information
on her. According
to Catherine's obituary,
the family settled
in Detroit, Michigan,
for a while, then
moved to the upper
peninsula.

John

Kate
Lawlor |
Mary
Lawlor |
It's
difficult to tell which
of these is Kate, but
the middle one looks like
she's wearing a ring on
her left hand, so I think
it's Kate. This picture
below of an older John
shows he looked quite
a bit like the younger
photo. The mustache never
changed.

I
just found this in a photo
album with captions provided
by my mother. Here she
wrote, "John Lawlor
with Jim and Hugh"
1917

Census
Pages
I
found Kate, married to
James in the 1870 Houghton,
Michigan census. I know
that the Patrick Lawlor
I found in upper Michigan
censuses is related, because
I remember my mother talking
about him, but I haven't
made the correct connection,
yet.
