Surnames: Crocker Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wNC.2ACE/1078.2.2.1.1 Message Board Post: Marcie Crocker, Fred Crocker of Michigan, descendant of the Newcastle Crockers, wrote to the city clerk of Upper Stewiacke NS in the early 1970’s and enquired if there were any Crockers still living in the area and if there were any community records pertaining to the Crocker family . He was put in touch with two Crocker brothers, bachelors that still lived in the Stewiacke area. This is their story which Fred related word for word. Dear Sir, I am writing you some information that might interest you regarding the Crockers. In 1922 I was working in a summer resort 25 miles from Boston. I met an old lady whose father was a Crocker. Her name was Mrs. Strickland and this is what she told me. Her ancestors came from Scotland to Ireland. She had the tartan of the clan. Her great grandfather came to the US and settled around Cape Cod. He had seven sons. Three of them went to New Brunswick with the loyalists during the revolution. Their names were Thomas, Andrew and Elijah. I came home that fall and went to see Walter Crocker and told him this story. This is his story. Three brothers came to St. John, NB around 1767 or 1768. Their names were Thomas, Andrew and Elijah. Andrew settled around Moncton, NB and was his great grand father. His ancestors could be traced right down to that time. Thomas and Elijah went to nova Scotia and were lost track of. Thomas came to Londderry, NS on the north side of Coquid bay and married a Dickie. They had three sons and five daughters. Elijah went to Digby, NS where you find a lot of Crockers. Signed, William Crocker PS The church records of Upper Stewiacke were destroyed by fire, so I can’t find anything there. We are going to try the vital statistics in Halifax to see whose son your great grandfather was. I don’t know how far the records go back. Marcie, Does anything in the above correspondence suggest a possible connection between the two Crocker lines.

Hi All, Anyone have this couple in their data base. TIA. 49. REBECCA10 CROCKER (RUTH9 CHIPMAN, HOPE8 HOWLAND, ELIZABETH7 TILLEY, JOHN6, ROBERT5, WILLIAM4 TYLLE, THOMAS3 TILLY, HENRY2, MR.1)7 was born in Barnstable, Barnstable, Ma. Dec.10, 1697. She married JEDUTHAN ROBBINS in Barnstable, Barnstable, Ma., Oct.22, 1718. JEDUTHAN was born in Plymouth, Plymouth, Ma. April 23, 1694. JEDUTHAN 8 was the son of JEDUTHAN ROBBINS and HANNAH PRATT. JEDUTHAN died Dec.15, 1740 in Plymouth, Plymouth, Ma., at 46 years of age. His body was interred Spring 1741 in North Carver, Plymouth, Ma., Lakenham Cemetary. NOTES FOR JEDUTHAN ROBBINS: His will is dated Nov. 26, 1740; proved Dec. 23, 1740. His will mentions a wife, Rebecca, and my aged mother. NOTES FOR REBECCA CROCKER: ( Barnstable Ma. Records ) Marriage record gives her name as Rebecca Robbins which is evidently a mistake. The settlement of her father's ( Eleazer Crocker ) estate, Oct. 2, 1724, mentions a daughter, Rebecca Robbins. > Subject: Re: Robinson Crocker of St Stephen NB > Date: 10 Feb 2002 06:50:05 -0700 > From: ronnyr@nb.sympatico.ca > New England Historic Genealogical Register (vol 2, 1848), called First Settlers of Barnstable, Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

It includes a list of Brunswick troops stationed there during the Revolutionary War. On that list is Carl Dupenack, a private, who was discharged July 14, 1783, age 29. This information came from Lion G. Miles, a member of the Board of Directors of the Johannes Schwalm Soc., who was said to be preparing a book on Brunswick troops of the Revolutionary War. The data was found in the Landeshauptarchiv, Wolfenbuttel, Germany. If you haven't seen it, I could scan the piece (parts of two pages) and email it to you.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/wNC.2ACE/775.2.1.1 Message Board Post: Janet, So glad to see you responded! Was afraid it had been too long for you to get my message. I am related to Ivan and Beverly Corey (Campobello). They are my in-laws and Aunt Mina and I have had the opportunity to visit a couple of times that she has been 'up this way'. I have not met Mel's daughter, but about 10 yrs ago, I met Uncle Charlie and his son. I did go to the Calais Library this weekend, however they closed on me before I could "wade" my way through the 1860 census. (I know this is going to sound terribly niave but ... it is NOT in alphabetical order.. I expected hand written but..!) I plan on going back next week as this week would be a strain with my children's schedule, you know basketball practice, reading club, boy scouts, etc. So next week is winteer break and I'll be able to spend major chunks of time deciphering. Additionally, I have located a "cemetary web site" and have put in a request for the volunteer to look around for "OUR" L.H. Daggett. Ivan (who is called Grandpa around here because my son carries his first name) told me last night that he hasn't heard anything about L.H. being buried on Deer Island. But, you said in your initial query that L.H. had a sister named Rebecca. Perhaps her middle initial was "N." And she could have married that other L.H. (for I am convinced that there were two in Washington County). Because Rebecca Marie was Ivans g-g-grandmother. But of course, the marriage date recorded in the Eastport Sentinel is the same date attributed to the R.N. to the other L.H. Who do you show as L.H.'s parents, as we don't have any concret info here. That might help me, I don't know.. Thanks for the offer of the pics, however, I have copies of one of him in uniform, one not, and one of Rebecca Marie. As you can tell, I'm quite excited with this challenge andI will keep you posted. If you want, you can email me at scorey@gwi.net. Sorry I can't come up with anything concrete right now. When I showed Ivan (gpa) you message, he knew that you were his cousin's daughter. So hopefully, you will feel good about that. Be patient. Susan P.S. I would offer to send you copies of what I have for pics, but we just got this contraption for Christmans, so it's pretty 'bare bones'. However, I could mail them to you if you want.

Ireland and Martha Crangle / Krangle, b. Maine. So Martha Crangle would fit the generation of your Michael Crangle. They could have been brother and sister. My info states that Martha was born in Maine but I think they lived right on the line between New Brunswick and Maine. I have a copy of a letter written by Michael Daly to his son Peter A. Daly. It is from Milltown, N.B. and dated 8 May 1898. It sounds as if Michael's wife, Martha Crangle, has died before this because he mentions Bridget and Mary taking care of him. Michael and Martha had several children, siblings to Peter A. but I do not know the names of all of them. But I have a letter written to Peter A. from his sister who became a nun and was called Sister Mary Philippa. It was written 25 August 1895 from Notre Dame Academy, Washington Street, Roxbury, MA. Her given name -- or the name of another sibling - was Alice. She also mentions an Annie that sounds like it is another sibling. Annie apparently was married to someone named George and lived in Butte, Montana.
