His body was interred MAY 1896 in Interlachen, Putnam, Florida, Pineview Cemetery.He married three times. He married Permelia between 1834 and 1838. In 1877 all census records in St. Lawrence County burned and were reconstructed. Daniel was listed in the reconstruction as a bachelor living alone in 1834. These records are located in the Genealogy room of the Gouverneur Museum in Gouverneur, New York. Permelia was born in Gouverneur, St. Lawrence, New York 1818. Permelia died 17 MAR 1842 in Bath, Steuben, New York, at 23 years of age. Her body was interred MAR 1842 in Bath, Steuben, New York, Pioneer Cemetery. He married Emily "Emma" in New York, AFT 1842. Emily was born in New York in 1811. Emily died 10 FEB 1865 at 53 years of age. Her body was interred FEB 1865 in Wright Twp, Ottawa, Michigan, Advent Cemetery. He married Lydia J. before 1870. Lydia was born in Pennsylvania CA 1830. She had been married to Unknown JENKINS, by whom she had a son, Louis A. JENKINS. Lydia died in 1888 at 58 years of age. Her body was interred 1888 possibly in Interlachen, Putnam, Florida, Pineview Cemetery. Daniel graduated from the Wesleyan Seminary December 25, 1833 in Gouverneur, New York. In 1842 he was pastor of the Bath, New York Methodist Episcopal Church. In that same year his wife, Permelia, died (presumably in childbirth with a stillborn child) and is buried in the Bath Pioneer Cemetery. The 1850 census finds him in Wilson, Niagara County, New York and married to his second wife, Emily. Silas and his first wife, Permelia, had two children who lived, and he had three children with Emily. In 1860 Daniel was a Methodist Minister in Wright Twp, Ottawa Co, Michigan. Emily died in Ottawa County in 1865. At some time before 1870, he received a call to preach in Knoxville, Tennessee at a Methodist Episcopal Church. He is shown in Florida in 1893 as a Methodist Episcopal Church preacher. He died there near Keuka in 1896 and is buried in the cemetery at Interlochen, Florida. Keuka is now a part of Interlachen. Even when it was a town, there wasn't much there. It did have a hotel, which is now a private home, a general store and a church.
1893: Florida-preacher of Methodist Episcopal Church as per 1893 Co. History "Rev. Daniel Bradley Lawton is engaged in the ministry near Knoxville, TN" A short obituary that appeared in the 1896 Minutes of the Holston Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church states that Daniel was born in the western part of New York state on 5 June 1814, and that he died near Keuka, Florida, on 12 May 1896. He is buried in Interlochin, Florida. It made no mention of his wife or any children. It states that he was converted when he was twelve years old, and that he began preaching when he was eighteen. Because his time in Holston Conference was limited (and the fact that he died outside the jurisdiction of the Conference), the writer of his obituary didn't have much information at hand when he wrote it.

Fidelia was listed in the 1860 census before her marriage as a teacher in Ottawa County, Michigan. She was shown living alone (widowed) in both the 1910 and 1920 census in Petoskey, so Edwin must have died before that. Petoskey Evening News, Monday, December 31, 1923, Page 1: Was Able to Be Down Town Friday, But Caught Cold and Pneumonia Developed. Mrs. Fidelia L. Dean, one of the long time residents of Petoskey, and quiet but active worker in church circles among the needy of the city and community and in fraternal circles, died unexpectedly at about noon Monday, from pneumonia. She passed away at her home on Lockwood avenue. Mrs. Dean was down town Friday afternoon, but caught cold and contracted pneumonia. She took to her bed Sunday forenoon and her condition at once became alarming. Coming to Petoskey in the early days Mrs. Dean became closely associated with various activities during the growth and development of the city. She was always busy quietly administering to the wants of the needy and aiding her friends in times of need. She was active in the First Methodist church and was the second Order of Eastern Star, of this city. She was also a member of Lombard Woman's Relief Corps.
