Lawson's father conferred the estate of Brayton on him, so founding the Brayton line of Lawsons upon whom the baronetcy later descended in 1743 on the death of Sir Mordaunt Lawson, 5th Baronet of Isell.
Lawson died before his father. He had married Sarah, daughter of William James of Washington, County Durham. They had two sons, Gilfrid and Alfred.
