Dear Phil, I know what it is to start from scratch. I think I may have a match for you and your Rebecca Lawshe Crist. My family spells Laushe as Lawshe. It was originally von Laaschet. The information I have I got from a lawshe website to which we are donating our family information. http://www.geocities.com/heartland/Plains/8415/lawshe.html The web master for this site can be found at Markfreeman@home.com According to the website mentioned above there is a Rebecca B. lawshe as being married to a John Crist on march 8, 1838. Rebecca's father was Abraham lawshe and his first wife Elizabeth bailey born 8-20-1786 in Jersey Shore. Lycoming, PA. She was the dauhgter of John bailey and hannah(unknown).
