Looking for Gaines Lawson b. 1840 TN married to Laura Lawrence

Surnames: Lawson Lawrence Neumann
I am a descendant of Gaines Lawson and Laura Lawrence. He was a Captain in the US Army in 1870, Duncan Fort, Maverick, TX. I cannot find him before this time. He may be the son of Malvina Piney Lawson but not positive.

I am also looking for Laura's family. Her mother's name was Laura Lawrence also (though her married name) b. (1818-1826) and lived with the Lawsons in the 1870 and 1880 Census. Laura (daughter) said she was born in Florida but I can find no record of this. Laura (mother) said she was born in South Carolina/New York. Diff Census said diff things.

The children of Gaines and Laura Lawson include: Eugene G. b 1870. in Mississippi, Katherine (Kate), b.1874 in Kansas, and Lawrence? b. 1869 in Wash, D.C. The family moved around a lot, which makes this harder. Katherine married a Neumann at some point.

Any help would be appreciated!
