Other Information	Bap 7.6.1795 in Tipton, Stafford the son of Isaac and Ann Law (Tipton is 1.8 miles from Dudley) He was listed as embarking and disembarking; he was a farmer aged 24. The embarkation list incorrectly gives him as dead before sailing; it was William Field who died before sailing. He is, however, another on the list who may have dropped out very late. This baptism is the best fit for the name and dates. However, a man of this name and with this birth date appears to have lived in the Dudley/Tipton area and died there in 1884. There were a number of men called John Law who were born and died in the Tipton/Dudley in the early 19th century and unless one had more information identification is unlikely. per Dorothea Rowse, Oct 2018
