Date 1825 per 1891 Census.^1,2,3 He Dates suggest that Lawrence and John are children of an earlier marriage since both were born before marriage of William Dingman and Ann Campbell. First wife may well be another Campbell girl since there was a large family of Campbells right beside them - per census records. after 25 December 1820. He married Mary Edwards, daughter of John Edwards and Pheobe Graves, on 5 October 1847 at Lobo Twp., Middlesex Co., Ontario; "Lawrence Dingman to Mary Edwards, both of Lobo, 5 Oct 1847" from London District Marriage Register - sent to me via email by Michael Dingman, Mar 8, 2004.⁴ Lawrence Dingman Initially I had info for two Lawrence Dingmans, one married to Mary Edwards and the other to Hellen. Later generations for Lawrence married to Helen developed well, especially through son Lawrence, but there was no info for Lawrence married to Mary Edwards past the 1861 Census. While some dates in census records seemed off, this was common for both Lawrence's. The 1871 Census was the clincher for fitting together the two groups of info; it shows Helen for the first time and kids names common to both. Also, with Lawrence's birth date 1820, there must be an earlier marriage for William - assuming Lawrence is a son of William. I have seen no info to suggest the mother of either Lawrence or brother John so maybe this is right?? (Dan Buchanan, May 10, 2004) after 1848.
