Lawson

John Lawson was born 1833 in Gilborne, Yorkshire and baptised 4 June 1835 as son of Margaret and William Lawson. The place in UK appears to be Gisburn, on the A59 and now in Lancaster just west of the Yorkshire border, with Skipton possibly the next nearest town. John died at Matlock aged 49, in 1882 #9236, and his parents names were remembered as William and Hannah Dean. There was no mention of his parents or brothers in the index to 1913.

The next step is to check the IGI held by the Mormons - International Geneological Index which started by focusing on recording baptisms and marriages in UK and now has spread out. Has Gisburn been recorded? If 'yes', then look for Lawson and Dean
At the moment it looks as if John was part of the gold rush era.

Elizabeth, originally from Wiggton, Scotland, died at Matlock 3 February 1909 aged 77 (I had 1907 #2165), when McKeand was remembered as her mother's surname. There are no appropriate McKeand entries in the indexes.

Most likely shipping arrival, judged by age, is John Lawson aged 24 arrived Oct 1856 on the Ocean Chief

Armstrong, surgeon-superintendent. Sydney Shipping Gazette 21 May 1853 p.153: The Marshall Bennett.— This barque has arrived here under very trying circumstances. The day after she left Plymouth a heavy gale from the westward carried away three topsails. Fine weather supervened till abreast of Tristan d'Acunha, when circumstamces occasioned a survey of the hold, and it was found that seven water casks had leaked out. This discovery determined Captain Harris to put in to the Cape. This was on Saturday, the 19th March, and on the 21st the Marshall Bennett departed thence with the requisite fresh provisions and water. On the 6th April, the ship was found to be making more water than usual, and on inspection of the fore-hold, it was perceived there was water (as much as four feet,) "above the skin." The crew and passengers engaged in working the pumps and the ship was kept before the wind under easy sail until night. The combined efforts of crew and passengers were systematically employed during the night, but in the morning it was found that the water had increased about a foot. On making this discovery, at daylight, a foresail was got over the bows and passed under the ship's bottom, which operation caused the influx of water to decrease so much that in two hours and a half the pumps "sucked." The fore-hold was then cleared away and then "the skin" cut through, when the leak was traced to the "fore foot," which was caulked with oakum so successfully that the working of the pumps was reduced to a five minutes' spell in two hours." The passengers voluntarily proposed to be divided into three watches, and the progress of the ship under sail was resumed with confidence. The leak, however, gradually increased until the 23rd instant, when it became so serious that the ship was "hove to." A sail, thrummed with oakum, and successfully applied to the bottom, again reduced the leak very considerably, and another caulking within succeeded so well that the ship made very little water. On the 24th April, another heavy gale from the N.W. was encountered, and it became neccessary to "heave to" again under close-reefed topsails. it was then discovered that the leak had broken out afresh. Another kind of caulking (with white lead and oakum) was then resorted to, with a pressure contrived by means of shot and chain. This contrivance was so far successful that the pumping was reduced to four minutes' spell in two hours, a state of things which continued up to the hour at which our report was penned. The greatest commendation is due to the captain, crew, and passengers, to whose united exertions (under Divine Providence) may be attributed an almost miraculous preservation.—Adelaide Register The South Australian Government Gazette 1866 pp. 82-83

This reconstruction began with the two surnames Lobb and Rosewarn for Mary's parents. The result shows she was first called Eliza, also that both her parents died young.
