Most Irish registry's did not start until the mid 1840's.  Sometimes parishes may have earlier records but one has to know the location to see if their are records.  

It looks like his profile does not have his death registry or marriage registry which may give where he came from and/or his parents names?  

Perhaps where he lived and died will have mention of him, other relatives or people that came over with him in the history of the area?  

This person seems to think that he came from Tipperary,  the Edward Lawrence for early 1800's is listed as this Edward Lawrence's father.   http://ramaracardendalton.com/geneology/getperson.php?personID=I00073&tree=Lawrence/JamesTree

Perhaps they came with others that you might find information on that could lead your to more information on Edward.  The 1852 Census shows these Lawrences living together.  https://central.bac-lac.gc.ca/.item/?app=Census1851&op=pdf&id=e002362821

These are the Lawrence's listed in Ontario for 1851 Census  https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/census/1851/Pages/results.aspx?k=cnsSurname%3a%22lawrence%22+AND+cnsGivenName%3a%22edward%22+AND+cnsProvinceCode%3a%22CW%22
