Janet, Looks like we are not related. I have located other Crawford family trees in Australia but they do not appear to line up with your family. I have been slowly working my way through "Google - Crawford Family Australia" There is a fair amount of information on this site which may be of assistance to you.

Betty - William Adolphus Crawford was born 4/2/1873 and died 9/30/1943. The date of death on his tombstone is off by 20 days. The researcher who got his obituary for me discovered this and it makes sense since the obit was published 10/1/1943. Arie Octavia Boman Crawford was born 3/1872 and died 1/1956 (her obituary was published 1/16/1956). Both are buried at Woodland Memorial Park in Sand Springs, Oklahoma.

Janet, I have only recently joined this mailing list, and this is the first time I have seen anything relating to Australia. My GG grandfather was Robert Crawford who I think immigrated to Australia in the early 1800's. He was born in Scotland (I think) in 1819 and died in Australia in 1883. He married an Elizabeth Hall and they had 4 sons and 2 daughters. If this line of family is of any interest to you let me know and I will forward whatecer information I have to you.

This Haywood County Crawford's are also my line. Roger in Mills River, Western North Carolina

My apologies if this is a duplicate post - the dratted dial-up connection is so unreliable! My interests are as follows: John S. Crawford, a baker (b. 26 May 1829, Kilsyth Parish, Stirlingshire, Scotland) married Isabella Macnie (b. 16 Jun 1838, Stirling Parish, Stirlingshire, Scotland). John's children from his first marriage (to Jean Shearer) were: Charles (b. 12 Sept. 1857), Mary White (b. 8 Jun 1859), John Shearer (b. 5 Jun 1862), and Margaret Calder (b. 20 Nov 1866). John's children with Isabella Macnie were: George Macnie (b. 26 Jun 1876), Archibald C. (b. 23 Sept 1878), and Frances Isabella (b. 11 May 1881). In 1880 the family came to America and lived first in St. Vincent, Kittson Co., MN. Later the family moved to Crookston, Polk Co., MN where they established their bakery. Frances Isabella (my grandmother) was disowned because she married against the family's wishes. George got married in CA and had one daughter; Archibald got married in MN and helped raise his wife's niece. As far as I know, none of the other children ever married. Any connections? Thanks for reading! [email protected]

Hello, Judith. This is my Crawford line also; my ancestor was James, brother to your husband's William Thomas. James was born 1809 in Haywood County and died 1896 in Clay County. My James (with no middle name) was the father of one daughter, Martha, and three sons who served in the Civil War. I have, courtesy of a generous cousin, a copy of a letter James wrote to his son, John, during the war, which is one of my most prized possessions. At any rate - many years ago, in 1970, I made the assumption that George and Sarah's son, George WASHINGTON Crawford, had been named for his father, thereby making the elder George a "senior". With absolutely NO source documentation, and being new at the genealogy hobby at that time, I took the liberty of making the elder George George, Sr., and his son, George, Jr. Well. My error took roots and since its first sharing via snail mail (LONG before computers), my error has taken on a life of its own. It may be that the elder George actually had a middle name, but I've never seen his name on any source document with so much as a middle initial. If you (or anyone else on the list) is in possession of a source for that information, I would be eternally grateful for the knowledge. Further, by my having given the elder George a middle name, and that name being "Washington", (the same as his son), he somehow became the prime target for being one and the same as a George Crawford who was the son of one Valentine Crawford, and everyone knows the rest of the story. My George became attached to a very long line of Crawfords with connections to the first president of the United States, and there, bless his heart, he has remained. Am awaiting the miracles of DNA testing to help determine the actual father of my George Crawford, but at this point, I am most positive that my blunder in 1970 has caused an erroneous connection which will never be corrected in my lifetime. Shame, shame on me. Once something is published, it becomes etched in stone and apparently cannot be undone - ever. Lesson learned. Never make an "assumption" if you ever intend to claim that your lineage is accurate. Use original documents as sources whenever possible and never EVER take someone else's research as gospel. I agree that it's impressive to have a lineage back to Adam (or to George Washington's Crawford friend in my case), but I was extraordinarily happy with them when they were just plain old hard-working George and Sarah Crawford with that houseful of children.

Shortly after 1800 Mathias Crawford moved to PA. I'd like to hear from any with MD Crawfords in that era, particularly from Frederick County. I've been able to learn only little about the family there. A David, or I'm thinking David Jr, along with some other names that may be siblings or his wife & children, are found sometimes named in litigation, and David may have raced, bought & sold, horses. 1790 census that county enumerated David, David Junr, Elias, 3 James, 3 Johns, and 2 Moses Crawford. 1800 had 2 Davids at Emmitsburg, Jonas & Mathias at Liberty, James, Moses & Robert at Westminster towns. It appears families had begun emigrating out before 1800. A rootsweb tree that existed years back named Jonas as Mathias' father, and David as his father, and that David was the immigrant, disembarked at Philadelphia. The tree owner never responded to any of my emails. In reconstruction, Mathias was born about 1765; Jonas abt 1738-1800, a wife was Catharine. This would make Jonas' father "David" born about 1710-ish Scotland. David's wife shown on that undocumented online tree was Jane Douglas.

Archibald Crawford Served in the War of 1812 as sergeant under General William Henry Harrison when they defeated the Indians at the Battle of Tippecanoe at Lafayette, IN on November 7, 1811. Archibald was wounded by an arrow in this battle. He continued to serve until he was mustered out of service in February 1814, when he returned to Miller's Creek, Estill Co., KY. He was granted 20,000 acres of land in the Middle Fork River area for his military services. In the spring of 1815, he moved to Bear Creek to claim his land. His two brothers, Valentine and Gideon helped him construct a two-room cabin. He owned 30 slaves. Some of his land grant is presently owned by his descendants and the descendants of his slaves who took the name of Crawford. Archibald was an eccentric. He built his own coffin and kept it filled with corn under the bed he slept in. He took a notion to have his own funeral and invited friends and relatives. There was a two-hour eulogy by the Rev. John Spencer. During the whole affair, Archibald sat in a chair at the head of the coffin which he had pulled out from under his bed for the occasion. From: Sharon Crawford; home.earthlink.net/~scburn1/archibald.htm Archibald Crawford, born March 9, 1772 in Culpeper Co. VA., was first found in Upper Howard Creek, Clark Co. KY in 1796. He was also on a reconstructed 1800 census schedule compiled from lists of taxpayers for the state of Kentucky in Clark County. Also shown living in Clark Co. was Austin Crawford, and Valentine Crawford. Archibald married Margaret (Peggy) Brown Dec. 8, 1801 in Clark Co. KY, Margaret was born January 6, 1789. In 1820 he was shown in the Estill Co. KY census with four males, five females and five slaves. Archibald built a home near the Middle Fork of the Kentucky River. In 1850 Breathitt Co KY Archibald at the age of 78 years old is shown as a widow. In his household there are children who probably are his grandchildren. They are Anderson, Abner, and Margaret Bowman, and Evilin and Nancy Spicer. Living several households down is Samuel and Rachel Plummer with daughter, America, age 5 months old. America (Annie) Plummer grew up and married James S. Crawford. James was the grandson of Archibald Crawford. In the 1860 Breathitt Co. KY census Archibald was living with his son, Clabourn Crawford. Archibald died March 27, 1866 in Breathit Co. KY. In 1870 Lee Co. was form out of Breathitt, Owsly, Estill, and Wolf Counties and in the 1870 census this Crawford family was found living in Lee Co. KY. >From Early Pioneers On The Three Forks Of The Kentucky River, written by Miles Crawford: Archibald was a tall thin man nearly 6 and a half foot tall. He wore homespun woolen jeans and linen shirts all year round. In his younger days he wore a long red beard and handlebar moustache. He carried a long scar on his right cheek and neck from an arrow he received when he was shot by they Wyondott Indians in the Battle of Tippecanoe with the Shawnee and Wyondott Indians in 1811 near the city of Lafayette, Indiana. Archibald continued to serve with General Harrison in the Northwest Territory and was at the Battle of the Thames in Oct. 1813. He was mustered out in February 1814, and returned to Millers Creek, Estill Co. Archibald came from Clark County to the mouth of Bear Creek about 1812. He built a long two room log house and raised thirteen children. He brought thirty slaves with him. Archibald had been in the War of 1812 as a Sergeant in the Calvary and was granted 20,000 acres landbounty warrant. One ancestor said he had so much land that he "didn't know where the boundaries were." It is known from tax lists and old deeds that the boundaries were all the land between the waters of Bear Creek, Upper and Lower Twin Creek. The 1800-1840 Estill and Breathitt Co. Tax list 20,000 acres of timber land. Most of the land was inherited by his thirteen children and heirs down through the generations. Some has been sold to other people, descendants of Archibald's original slaves still live on part of the original tract. They took the name of Crawford and retain it to the present. Archibald was a shoe cobbler of sorts, he made shoes from hides he had tanned and put the soles on with dogwood pegs. About everywhere he traveled he always took along his two Jameson (large Kerr type hunting dog)dogs. At age 78 years, Archibald decides he wanted his funeral preached while he was still living, word spread for several miles around about the event. He invited all that could get into the family room of the house, he pulled a coffin made from black walnut whipsawed lumber from under a huge four poster bed. The coffin was filled with seed corn and asked them to plant it in memory of the event. Rev. John D. Spencer, a hard-shelled Baptist, preached the funeral. Archibald told the crowd that his large four poster bed meant more to him than anything else. He had handmade the bed as a wedding present for his young wife in 1801, she was barely 12 years old when they married, and all of their 13 children were born in that bed and when his time had come he wanted to die in it. Archibald died 16 years later. The funeral was attended by James Green Trimble who wrote an account of the event and published in the book, "Remembrances Of Breathitt County" published by The Jackson Times, Jackson, Breathitt County, Kentucky. Parents: Joseph "Josiah" CRAWFORD and UFN ISACCS. He was married to Margaret "Peggy" BROWN on 7 Nov 1801 in Miller's Creek, Clark Co., KY. Children were: Elizabeth CRAWFORD, Claiborne CRAWFORD, Louvina CRAWFORD, Orange "Arcie" CRAWFORD, Cynthia CRAWFORD , Valentine CRAWFORD, Oliver CRAWFORD, Owen CRAWFORD, Margaret CRAWFORD, William Harrison "Harry" , Sr. CRAWFORD, Maranda CRAWFORD, Simpson , Sr. CRAWFORD, Albert G.

Thanks Donna, I did not know how to respond to you directly. I am a subscriber to Ancestry.com so I had already looked at the census records. Wish I knew how to track down the daughter, but I have no idea where to go with this. I appreciate your help.
