Sarah Emma Red Lawson was born on March 23, 1876 in Howard, Kansas (Elk County) (in some records it says she was born in 1880)
She was the daughter of James D. Red & Sarah Elizabeth Wyatt Red. She was called 'Emma', even though it was her middle name.
She married Edward F. Lawson on January 13, 1895 (possibly 1896) in Benton County, Arkansas. They had one son together, Gilbert Thomas Lawson (my grandfather).
She was the sister of
James E. Red (1870-1884)
Charles M. Red
Martha Red Armstrong (1883-1971; full name is Martha Francis Electra Red Armstrong)
William W. Red
Christopher C. Red
John Sanders Red
Joseph Sire Red

'Emma' was my great-grandmother.
Emma died February 17, 1901 in Bentonville, AR. Her obituary read:
''Mrs. Sarah Emma Lawson, wife of Ed Lawson and daughter of James D. Red died on Sunday, February 17, 1901 of pneumonia after a 16-day illness and was buried at Odd Fellows Cemetery on Monday, February 20, 1901. Mrs. Lawson recently came here from Oklahoma and has not enjoyed good health since she came. She leaves a husband and one child.'' (Benton County Democrat 2/28/01)
**Odd Fellows Cemetery is the Bentonville Cemetery**
I have not been able to find her grave, my mother says it is unmarked.
