bullet  General Notes:

Archbishop Lawrence
The first individual of this name who lived in England, yet ascertained, was Lawrence the monk. Collier,in his Dictionary, has the name Laurentius. In Harris's "History of Kent," it is Lawrence. He came from Italy with Austin, who was sent to Britain for the propagation of Christianity in the island.
Upon the death of Austin, he succeeded him to the Archbishop-ric of Canterbury. He is said to have been both leaned and pious; and, at his death, was buried in the Abbey of St. Austins, AD 916.
