Hi Christine There are a few different Emma Lawton/Laughtons around that time scale in Shropshire and it is difficult to narrow down to the few probables that you can follow up. There are several versions of the spelling of the surname (as always) which does not help. Good luck, hope you get them sorted out. Regards Gail.
