I believe William Lawson was born around 1847 Sheffield to William & Elizabeth Lawson. His was listed with his family Age 4 in the 1851 Census but I can find no other record of him. He was not listed in his father's will.

Do you have names for his siblings?

All I have is the names in the attached document - Joseph Henry, Edward Arthur, Maria Louisa, Ellen Wilson(Thackeray) and William Webster Lawson's wife Elizabeth. This is what I am trying to find out. I think John Lawson (born 1795/96) re married Henrietta Wilson sometime after his wife Ann Webster died. John Lawson & Ann Webster were married 2 May 1816 Cathedral St Peter Sheffield.
