Hi Lee Anne,
But there are William Lawson's in Virginia. I went to our tax list website
and did a Name Search for William Lawson and this is what I got:
(Name County Year/Type of Tax List Page No)
1. Lawson, William Gloucester 1800Land 12
2. Lawson, William (estate) Lancaster 1797Land 08
3. Lawson, William T Caroline 1799PersonalB 09
4. Lawson, William Gloucester 1799Personal 13
5. Lawson, William Gloucester 1789PersonalA 09
6. Lawson, William Lancaster 1786Personal 07
7. Lawson, William Lancaster 1789Land 07
Hope this might help you.
