NOTE:Info from Pam Spooner at: wspoone@san.rr.com says came to Davis, IA with parents about 1850. Migrated to OKlahoma. "My Aunt Lois (Henderson)Clement [my mother, Jewel's sister: descendant of William Jasper's sister Mary Emily Lawson Henderson] told me that, according to family records, William Jasper was a Civil War (Union) veteran and that he made it through the whole ordeal without a scratch.' His brother, John H. Lawson, was also a Union soldier and, according to my grandfather (Charlie Johnston Henderson), he was shot in the chest/lungs during the Civil War and, after recovering from his wounds, he received a rifle ball crease in his scalp. After the war, John Lawson, returned to the family farm and worked it with his mother, Rachel Russell Lawson, who was the head-of-household. (That was after his father's disappearance) I don't believe John ever married. He is buried beside his mother in Davis Co, IA. My grandfather said he (John) was very smart and well read. I know the unit in which John served and assume that perhaps William Jasper was in the same company. I sent away for Williams's Civil War pension records but not received yet. I will request John's too."
