George W Lawrence Album

George Washington Edward Lawrence

Like many men of this era George is a Civil War Veteran. Interesting that it was very rare for an Adams County Pennsylvania Union recruit to have participated in the Gettysburg battle engagement. They were stationed in other locals, many in Baltimore Maryland.
