Lorenzo was born in Georgia between 1805-1810. Two out of three census reports list his birth year as 1805 while the 1850 Census indicates he was born in 1810. In 1850, Lorenzo and wife Sarah are enumerated on the federal census in Yalobusha County, Mississippi. [1] On the 1860 Census[2] and the 1870 Census[3] his birth year is listed as 1805.

Lorenzo married Sarah Anderson in December of 1830:
