William Lawrence (Ohio Republican)
William Lawrence (June 26, 1819 – May 8, 1899) was a Republican politician from Ohio. He was most noted for being a US Representative, and was influential in attempting to impeach Andrew Johnson, creating the United States Department of Justice, helping to create the American Red Cross, and ratifying the Geneva Convention.
Lawrence was born on June 26, 1819 in Mount Pleasant, Ohio. He attended Tidball's Academy in Knoxville, Tennessee. After teaching at Pennsville and McConnelsville, Ohio, he was graduated in 1838 from Franklin College in New Athens, Ohio. He was then graduated in 1840 from law school at the University of Cincinnati, and was admitted to the bar.〔(Biographical Directory of the United States Congress )〕 In 1873, Lawrence was awarded the LL. D. from Franklin College.〔History of Logan County and Ohio, p. 269. O. L. Baskin & Co., Chicago, 1880〕

West. From 1841 to 1843, he continued his studies, then in the field of medicine. In 1842, he became the Commissioner of Bankruptcy for Logan County.〔(A Brief History of Logan County, Ohio ) by K. Todd McCormick, Curator, Logan County Historical Society and Logan County Museum. Retrieved March 13, 2006.〕
From 1845 to 1847, Lawrence served as the editor of the ''Logan Gazette'', which later became the ''Bellefontaine Examiner''. During this time, Lawrence was elected as the Logan County Prosecutor (in 1845). He also served as a member of the Ohio House of Representatives, in 1846 and 1847. In 1849, Lawrence was first elected to the Ohio Senate, serving until 1851 when he became the reporter of the Ohio Supreme Court. He returned to the Ohio Senate in 1854. He also served as an editor of ''Western Law Monthly'' from 1859 to 1862.〔〔 In 1860 or 1861, Lawrence built a house along North Main Street in Bellefontaine; today, the William Lawrence House remains largely intact and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔O'Connor, Mark S.
