There is a mystery person in 1800 Stokes Co., NC amongst the other Lawsons named Samuel Lawson who appears only in 1800 and 1801. I thought that he could be old Clem Lawson b: ca. 1771 as they (Sam and Clem) never appear together. Clem should show up around / after 1790 in the census and tax lists but does not until 1800 or almost 30 years old.
Your name of Samuel Paschal has me wondering if there was perhaps a Paschal Lawson Sr. who was the Samuel Lawson appearing in 1800 and 1801.
A clue to our Paschal's full name may be that Clem Lawson (Jr.) b: 1817-1821 named a son William Paschal Lawson. He grew up next door to our Paschal Lawson and Paschal named one of his sons Clement. There was a William Paschal in the area.
