Disputed Origins

Fnu Lnu Brickwall. No proof of her name. Tithable status of FPOC track in all the Lawrence line 3 generations down to Capt Sam Smith. Not the Mary Power who was the daughter of John Power, 5th Baron le Power and Coroghmore, married Philip Magrath, in County Waterford, Ireland. This is not the same Mary Power. See: Mosley, Charles, editor. Burke's Peerage, Baronetage & Knightage, 107th edition, 3 volumes. Wilmington, Delaware, U.S.A.: Burke's Peerage (Genealogical Books) Ltd, 2003.


Please do not merge.Considered the brickwall. Need proof of parents.
THIS can not work to be the profile for the Giselle named Mary Lawrence whose mother was a Pypho/Power and the reasons are here: 1. Taylor born after the death of her mother Mary Ann Griselle Lawrence. so she is not the same as Mary Lawrence. 2. Mary Thomas born after the death of her mother Mary Ann Griselle Lawrence, so she was not the mom of Taylor or Mary or.3. Elizabeth or 4. Sarah Perkins. Therefore Mary Lawrence was the mother and not Mary Ann Griselle Lawrence of Baronial English line d. 03/22/1675 and had been born in Breneden, Kent, UK.
