Gender Male Death 9 Dec 1687 Charlestown, Suffolk County, Massachusetts
Burial Notes - Lawrence, a carpenter by trade, was in Watertown in 1634 or earlier. In 1638 he and his wife were warned for having danced, and may have been induced to remove to Lancaster, where the high authority of Willard has him build the first house in that settlement, about 1642. The only other persons in the town at the time were, Thomas Ball and Richard Linton, his father-in-law. In June 1655, Richard, then of Lancaster, sold to Robert Harrington, three parcels of land in Watertown, amounting to 129 acres, "with all my town right due me in Watertown." He was blind in 1676 and removed before the Indian whirlwind fell on Lancaster and resided at Charlestown.
