This bio was on the KY Bios list. Thought someone might be interested. Marilyn ======================= #3628: Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 6th ed., 1887, Shelby Co. G. W. HARBISON was born in 1829 in Shelby County, Ky., and is the seventh son of a family of eleven children born to Col. Samuel H. and Sarah E. (CRAWFORD) Harbison. The Harbisons came from Virginia and located at Lexington in 1800, where they resided some time, and later moved to Shelby County where Samuel H. reared his family, and where only two sons now reside--Samuel and G. W.--the others being dead. The father was always a farmer and stock raiser, and served as magistrate at one time; was born March 30, 1781, and was in the war of 1812-1813; under Gen. Harrison. He was an elder forty years in the Presbyterian Church, and died in 1858. Our subject has also followed the pursuits of the farm, owns 300 acres of very valuable land, and is greatly interested in stock raising. In 1861-66 he was sheriff of Shelby County, when there was a great deal for a sheriff to do, owing to the presence of guerrillas in the county. He has been a member of the Presbyterian Church for thirty-three years, and an elder for twenty years. He has been continuously superintendent of the Sabbath-school for twenty-three years. In 1853 he married Miss Emma M. Miller of Lebanon, Ohio, a daughter of Jacob Miller, a prominent Methodist minister. They have five children: Flora P., S. Marshall, Eugene D., Arthur M. and Emma T., the first named three of whom are married. Mr. Harbison is a man of great moral worth and integrity.

Hi everyone. I have been searching forever it seems for the parents of Wyatt Smith Crawford. (He is my great grandfather). I have been told it was Johnathan Crawford but I have been unable to connect oneof the million John's and Johnathan's to him. If anybody knows I would sure like to know anything . Also his wife's maiden name. She was Arminta/Amanda _________. Thanks to anyone who has found this connection. Claudette Wilson

As another descendent of the Rutland MA Crawfords, I'd be interested in hearing where their descendents went. Although my "Crawford"-named ancestors were in Rutland, their descendents in my line went to Vermont, then to upstate NY (Warren County), and eventually to Ohio.

I have a Crawford niece getting married soon. She has traveled to Scotland to see two Crawford castle sites - we claim them all. Anyway, she wants to know if there is a particular flower or shrub associated with the Crawford Clan. Does anyone on the list know, or know where I can find out? I think this is my wedding assignment. You know it takes a village to raise a child? Well is takes a family to get one married off too! Thanks in advance, Ida

My line of Crawfords moved from Rutland/Pelham Mass around 1800 to Freedom, Cattaraugus Co, NY. I suspect that this was a family grouping. I do not have any John Crawfords in our records, but you might look around Freedom. -- Andrew Crawford, 2785 IOE Dept., University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 734 764-9410, Ascott Corp 734 663-2023 http://ascott.com/

I recently went in search of my CRAWFORD marriages at the local library, copied all that I found, and thought I should share them with you. The original transcription was done by local volunteers and there is no information about the parents of the bride and groom. Any further information will have to be requested from the county (or state). Hope it helps someone Janet - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Crawford Marriages - Lawrence Co.,IN 1851-1900 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CRAWFORD,Albert G & SPEER,Nancy 16Jan1892 CRAWFORD,Alice & COOPER,John L. 03Oct1877 CRAWFORD,Alice & FULTZ,John D. 08Jun1900 CRAWFORD,Ambrose & BROOKING,Lissie 14Feb1886 CRAWFORD,Ann & GREEN,Elias 18Sep1866 CRAWFORD,Austin & BEAVER,Addie 21Apr1892 CRAWFORD,Carrie L. & DAVIS,Edward M. 21Apr1886 CRAWFORD,Carrie M. & MITCHELL,David A. 03Oct1895 CRAWFORD,Elijah & TODD,Minerva 29Jul1852 CRAWFORD,Elijah & WILLIAMS,Lucy 01Jan1863 CRAWFORD,Eliza & BURK,Jas.H. 24Oct1878 CRAWFORD,Elizabeth & WEBB,Lewis 07Jan1861 CRAWFORD,Elizabeth & CHITTY,James B. 10Nov1864 CRAWFORD,Elizabeth & MYERS,Simpson B. 24Sep1865 CRAWFORD,Elizabeth Belle & COSNER,Wm.H. 21Jan1885 CRAWFORD,Florence I. & SPEER,Wm.D. 03Jul1886 CRAWFORD,Franklin & LEACH,Jane 07Jul1856 CRAWFORD,H.E. & THIGESTON,Lola 21Nov1893 CRAWFORD,Henry H. & BROWN,Mary M. 05Nov1890 CRAWFORD,Isaac J. & McKEGG,Elizabeth 21Nov1867 CRAWFORD,James E. & THORN,Eliza E. 14Feb1856 CRAWFORD,James E. & BROOKING,Susan J. 24Oct1891 CRAWFORD,Jane & WOODY,William 11Jan1870 CRAWFORD,Joel & MYERS,Florence L. 15Dec1881 CRAWFORD,John & McNABB,Mary 24Apr1877 CRAWFORD,John D & DIXON,Charlotte 11Jan1866 CRAWFORD,John G. & WILLIAMS,Nancy J. 03Jul1866 CRAWFORD,Jos.L. & JACKSON,Anna 18Mar1880 CRAWFORD,Joseph L. & DIXON,Maggie 24Mar1886 CRAWFORD,Laura & REUTER,Henry 28Dec1876 CRAWFORD,Leonard & SPEAR,Elizabeth 24Aug1854 CRAWFORD,Lycurgus & JOHNSON,Sarah A 05Mar1882 CRAWFORD,Maggie & BROWN,John W 23Mar1875 CRAWFORD,Margaret & BROWN,Albert O. 13Sep1894 CRAWFORD,Margaret & JOHNSON,Jesse A. 27Oct1859 CRAWFORD,Martha & KNIGHT,Charles 02May1890 CRAWFORD,Martha & COOPER,General Lee 05Oct1869 CRAWFORD,Martha L. & WEAVER,Samuel S. 20Jul1884 CRAWFORD,Mary & ROBERTS,Marcellus 04Jul1878 CRAWFORD,Mary I. & BAUGH,Joseph 17Apr1887 CRAWFORD,Mary Jane & GUTHRIE,Silas 22Dec1859 CRAWFORD,Newton & TODD,Mary C. 24Dec1863 CRAWFORD,Nora M. & UMPHRESS,Homer 11Oct1888 CRAWFORD,Othmeyer & MEYERS,Cora B. 04Nov1896 CRAWFORD,Rilda (Hilda?) & ALLEN,Jesse 24Apr1890 CRAWFORD,Sarah J. & SALLEE,Joseph T. 11Jan1875 CRAWFORD,Stilwell & McCORMICK,Florence 03Jan1875 CRAWFORD,Tabitha & NEWKIRK,Samuel 31May1874 CRAWFORD,William A. & ALLEN,Eliza E. 01Mar1853 CRAWFORD,William H. & THOMAS,Ida 07Sep1882 CRAWFORD,William H. & LITTon,Margaret 27Jun1852 CRAWFORD,Wm.N. & REUTER,Beda L. 03Feb1878 CRAWFORD,Young & EDWARDS,Peggy 20Oct1864 CRAWFORD,Zilphia I. & MITCHELL,Andrew J. 24Dec1890

I am trying to make a connection with the correct CRAWFORD family. Does any of the following folk lore information connect with your CRAWFORD family? John CRAWFORD b. 1805 in NY was a farmer in 1850 NY census- - Wife Diana FAY b. 1812. Family was said to be of French, Irish, Scottish, and English descent. Children listed in Census 1850 1. Alice (Lavina) b. 24 Nov 1837 -Beetmanton, Canada 2. Winny or Mary b. 1839 3. John b. 1841 4. Hirman ?- 1843 in St. Lawrence Co. NY 5. George - b.1849 in St. Lawrence Co. NY- Piersport. The CRAWFORD family moved to Ogdenburg, St. Lawrence Co. NY in 1842. Alice (Lavina) CRAWFORD married Dr.John Wesley JOHNSTON in Piersport NY on 28 Jan 1854. They later moved to Winnebago, IL and then settled in Bremer Co. IA (Douglas Twp) Does anyone recognize this CRAWFORD. Any help would be so thankful. Please email me at- JoMertz@aol.com

Hi folks! It would be very helpful to me, and I am sure others, if when posting to this list a poster would put more information in the subject line of their query. For example: William Crawford 1815-1900 (SC, AL, MO) Thanks very much. Diane
