Jon Platten of Layton, Utah is willing to sell a poetry book titled "Songs Ysame" by Annie Fellows Johnston. The book was published in 1897, and this particular book was given to Henry Ware Lawton's widow by Annie Johnston, and is so inscribed.
Jon can be contacted at: pjon13@msn.com
This book can be purchased at the on-line book seller Abebooks
http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?tn=Songs+ysame
for $16 including shipping. Of course, it would not be Mrs. Lawton's copy.

At the above website can be found a listing for Leo Lawton of Quincy, Massachusetts of an unclaimed amount of money in relation to Macy's stock. This may have been Leo Lawton married to Edith Trautmann with sons Joseph and Francis. Francis had a son named Scott who could possibly recover this unclaimed money.

Leslie Bateson and Ruth Rawls have taken photos of all tombstones that pertain to the Lawton family in the Black Swamp and Bostick cemeteries near Garnett, SC, and Bonaventure and Laurel Grove in Savannah, GA.
They have allowed us to place them in our cemetery section.
