No Lawrenceville in the early 1840's was just up the Kiskiminatis?? Sp - River from Pittsburgh, more or less across the bridge from Sharpsburh.The Allegheny Cemetery is still there.It has been absorbed into Pittsburgh now and is no longer known as Lawrenceville.
I've looked for David in every state in the Union along with his sons in 1850 and don't find them.Benjamin Franklin and his brother Charles are back in Pittsburgh in 1860 and George is dead in 1852 and buried in Allegheny Cemetery.
Sincerely
Kathleen
