The Lawrence Family in 17th Century Merriott Records

Lawrence was the most represented surname in all the Merriott censuses and Parish Registers. This fact, added to name repetition, makes the Lawrences  the most difficult family to try to sort out.   The Baptismal tables show the family groupings I have come up with after considering the data available.   If you have contrary information, please let me know by emailing Sue Osborne  .  Thanks!
