Hi Jeff,
They don't ring any bells for me, but I haven't researched the Lawrence Siegel family back further, since this is not my direct line.
Going by memory, but it seems that Lawrence came very early to Shiawassee Co., MI with a group of Germans. They were instrumental in getting many improvements made to the county with their hard work. I think it was Daniel Ball who was the head of the group and that they came from NY. There is a Shiawassee Co., MI webpage which has some info. on this group. No other Siegels are mentioned. Going by the date of Lawrences immigration and the birthdates and birthplaces of his children it looks to me that they got off the boat and pretty much headed straight to MI.
Good Luck,
Carolyn
