The Lawrence family, of English descent, lived near Zanesville. Marion's grandmother raised her son alone until he married, helping her as he could. She is buried in a family plot on a hill near their home. Her father worked for farmers; hunted game for food; dug coal from a hill nearby; and helped at a sawmill. Mother sewed their clothes from cloth similar to denim. There were six living children: Rilla Catherine, Marion Francis, Thomas Stone, and John Wesley, two girls, Vernie and Edna, died in infancy. Two children were still born. Albert was interred in Mt. Zion Cemetery, Guernsey County. The Johnsons were Pennsylvania Dutch from Germany. The father, Elisha Johnson, was a casket maker and a carpenter. He held a frosty nail in his mouth which stuck to his lip, damaging the lip. He developed cancer. He was a very religious man. He died, leaving three small boys and one girl- Lew, Jethro, Charles, and Malinda Catherine (named for her mother who had died). Their parents are buried in Plainfield Cemetery. In 1911 Marion helped his dad dig coal, when he was out of school. When he was 15, he quit school, and became an engineer hoisting coal from the Harriette Mine, near Buckeyeville. He met and later married Ruth Elizabeth Archer, 18, on June 12, 1920. They lived near Little Kate, in a mining town called Lucasburg, west of what is now Meadowbrook High School. Two girls were born- Dorothy Louise on July 4, 1921, and Virginia June on January 20, 1923. In the spring of 1925 they moved to Cressep, West Virginia where he mined coal. During a strike a farmer hired him to hoe corn and put up hay. A son, Jack Archer, was born June 18, 1925. the family became ill with typhoid fever. Dorothy died. They then returned to the old home. He worked as he was able to in mines, the railroad, R. C. A. and odd jobs. His wife, Ruth, died October 22, 1957. Marion was a widower nine years. He loved to square dance. It was there he met M. Helen Ray, a nurse's associate. A year later- November 13, 1966, we were married, and have lived in Lore City, a town near where I was born August 5, 1912. - Submitted by M. Helen Lawrence.
