Jean, I would be interested in the Crawford's in this Cemeter in Columbus GA., should yi go there for Crawford graves. Tthank you Wanda
I am looking for a connection to Crawford families in this area or possibly a neighboring area. My grandfather, Frank Charles Crawford, was born on March 9, 1899 as far as we know. We do not know where he came from or who his parents were. He may have been born in one of these or someplace close. he married my grandmother Mary Ann in 1918, they resided in the Pembina-Neche ND area and also in the Cavalier ND area (all in Pembina County) As I was growing up, I heard stories (which I would like to verify) about a situation where "those People" tried to take away his wages while he was living in the Pembina area, and after his first son (my uncle)was born. He threatened to change his name, but I don"t believe that he did. He and Grandmother Mary Ann moved to Cavalier ND in 1924 and there he lived until his death in 1968. I am looking for clues as to who he is and who his parents and family were. It is said that grandmother knew, but would not tell. This secret also went to the grave with him and we would like to find out. There are some medical reasons to know this info, also. If any piece of this story sounds familiar, please CONTACT ME. I do not believe that any harm can come from knowing the answers. Thank you in advence for your help. Sharon Crawford Brobst.
My gg-grandfather James Crawford was born in County Tipperary about 1821. He married a Bridget McGraw from County Meath. They came to the U.S. about 1850-1852, lived a short time in Ohio (not sure where) then Peoria County, IL, then York County, Nebraska. Have never done research in Ireland so don't know much before their time. Mike

It seems as tho this genealogy puts you to the test and sometimes takes years and years to make a connection .I made my first connection after 10 years of diligently writting long hand written letters to people in another country I didn't know... with the surnames Crawford or Munro.I made the Munro connection to my aussie relatives finally after getting online back in 2000 and have remained in contact with them ever since.But I never have found my scotland or australian Crawford connection and I know there has to be one because I have 2 sides of Crawfords in my tree.Probably where some distant cousins married up.Anyway the farthest back I can go is William Crawford married a yes... Sarah Crawford in Ardrossan Scotland Jan 11,1800 then their son also a william crawford married a Mary Caldwell Aug 4th 1831 in Beith,Scotland and they had children as follows Andrew 1841,Agnes 1846,Margaret 1834,William 1831 and my descendant Gavin 1832.Gavin Crawford then marries Ann Munro June 12,1860 in Dalry,Scotland. They come to the united states in 1890...They had 2 sons daniel and another william crawford that went to australia and met up with their mothers Munro kin there.The oldest of the Munros now in australia recall seeing the crawfords come for a visit but they were somewhat rowdy and got into trouble and told to go back to Melbourne is the way that story goes. Im also not giving up on a scotland connection...these people had way too many children for me not to have living descendants still in australia or scotland. Does any of that ring a bell to anyone alot of these people from both sides of the Munros and Crawfords went to australia and to the usa and also have ties to Easdales.I thought while this list was hot I would put my 2 cents in haha and hope for a miracle.

For most of my life I wondered who she was. Did she sew? Was she beautiful? Did she really play the piano as wonderfully as Uncle Dan had said? I had to know more about my grandmother. I had to know her date of birth, her middle name, did I have cousins I had never met, were she and my grandfather ever really married and most importantly, what did she look like? I have been a model for most of my adult life. Since the beginning of my career photographers continually commented on my high cheek bones. On many occasions I was asked my heritage. "Scottish ancestry, fifth generation, nothing else" I would say because that's what I was, or so I thought. "No, you must be German or Icelandic with that sort of face shape." Then I would kid, "Well, I don't look like the mailman". One day, I returned home from a shoot and announced to my parents that from now on I am telling people that I am of Nordic decent because no one believes that I am Scottish and I am tired of the debate. Then my brother said: "Well, you're not only of Scottish background because Dad's mom was native". What? The inquest began. Who was my grandmother? When did she die? Why do we not have any photos of her? Why was my paternal ancestry all so vague? Upon investigation, I quickly learned the root of the mystery behind my heritage. It lay in the form of an eccentric Parisian woman. My step grandmother never wanted to believe that any female had existed in my grandfather's life before she arrived on the scene and so she rid the world of any sign that another woman had once had my grandfather's heart. She went to great lengths to start her new life with a clean slate, even as far as to send my father and his twin sister, who were two at the time, to live in separate homes, in different countries. So, with no one around to preserve the past, my father's history was slightly rewritten. About six years ago, I began to actively trace my family tree. I registered with several online chat groups, posted queries and visited the Toronto and Bruce county archives. In the meantime, since we did know that my father had been born in Innisfil County Ontario; my brother Norman searched the Barrie area archives as well. He struck it rich before I did. My grandparents wedding announcement had been published in the local paper along with the address where they had once owned a general store. There was one of my step grandmother's fabrications disproved, my dad was not a born out of wedlock as she had led him to believe. That lie was pretty scarring to a child born in 1923 when that sort of situation was highly unacceptable. The discovery of the newspaper articles provided us with the information that my grandmother's name was Susan Maud Mary Crawford. Now, I was able to go to the Latter Day Saints genealogy site and do some hunting. Within a couple of hours, I had the entire Crawford lineage including the names of my great and great great grandparents. Most importantly, I learned my grandmother was born in Parry Sound, Ontario during the late 1800's.With this information I visited the Toronto archives. There I learned the names of one more of my grandmother's siblings, William Wallace whom had died at birth. Another mystery had been solved. Now I knew how my father had gotten his name Wallace. I also learned that my great grandfather had settled in Caledon, so close to Mississauga where my father and mother had raised us. I tried to contact the person who had posted this information on the LDS website by mail, but my letter was returned. He had moved and not left a forwarding address. I tried for months to reach him because it appeared that somehow we must be related. I left postings and queries on websites with no response. I even called every Crawford in the Parry Sound/Muskoka and Peel/Halton region and learned nothing. Three years had gone by and although I had collected a lot of information about my paternal grandfather and his brothers, and even taken some genealogy courses through University of Toronto, I was still at a loss to find anything about my grandmother. Little did I know that with a click of a mouse many of my questions were soon to be answered. While pouring through a particularly long list of emails on morning, I came across one from a D. Crawford. The subject line was Susan Crawford! My stomach was in my throat. Was this him? The man who knew more about my grandmother than my own father? I was both excited and afraid to open the email because I didn't want to have hit another dead end. Mr. Crawford and I communicated for some weeks. We traded information, but I know that he was much more the fountain of knowledge to me, than I was to him. He told me that my grandmother was the one family enigma. No one knew when she had died or where she was buried. My father didn't know either. He was always told that she died shortly after he was born. My father had one uncle, my Uncle Dan with whom he maintained close contact, but by this time he had died and no one had asked him much information about Susan. I learned from the information provided by my "cousin" that she was indeed was half native. My great grandmother was from the Ottawa tribe. At the time when my grandfather was married to my grandmother there was a great social stigma attached to mixed marriages especially with native Canadians, so I'm quite sure that was partially why there was very little ever discussed about their union. One day while emailing my newfound "cousin" I learned that he had one photo of my grandmother. My eyes welled up with tears. Am I really going to see her face? Will I finally see the woman who has been the centre of my focus for so long? Yes, but the best part of it all was that my dad was finally going to see his mother. We arranged for my new cousin to come over to the house on my Dad's 80th birthday. I didn't tell him of the surprise. When I introduced them I told my dad that they were first cousins. He had never met any of his Crawford cousins. I then told him that there was more. Our cousin pulled out a photo album. Inside there were photos of my father's aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents. It was all quite overwhelming to my dad at the time. We continued to look through the book and then we came across an envelope. He handed it to me. I pulled out the photo of Susan, my grandmother and there they were - the cheeks! My cheeks! My dad's cheeks! One more mystery was answered that I hadn't even considered. I now knew who my daughter really looked like, not me, not her dad, but her great grandmother Susan. I think my dad was in shock when he looked at the photo. It had taken eighty years for him to have the chance to look into his mother's eyes. I really don't know what he thought that day. He was very quiet. At 24 years of age my dad's twin sister June Isabel (another name from the Crawford lineage) committed suicide. She had suffered greatly throughout her short life. In her early twenties, June had married a man named Alec Bittner who was from a prominent Toronto family. Together they had a young son whom the called Alan. Alan was born with a club foot. I don't know all of the details, perhaps the young marriage had ended, but at some point the Bittner family, took June's son to live with them. June was an alcoholic. She dealt with pain and isolation that was continually inflicted upon her by her step mother till the very end. One Christmas, the same year that my father had returned from the war, June had called her parents home to ask if she could celebrate the holidays with the family. She was told no. Her step mother had told her that she was not welcome in their house. June was devastated that night and later she took her own life. My step grandmother was a woman who thought it more important to save face than protect a past. She buried many truths and seemed to create a reality that was more acceptable to her. She lived in a world full of illusion, which protected both her conscience and her behavior from scrutiny. Had my step grandmother understood that so much of who we are today stems from an understanding of where we once came, she may have seen clear to embrace her new family's history not attempt to erase it. My Dad's new found knowledge of his family's past provides him with a fantastic opportunity. It allows him to trace his heritage back over a thousand years. He can see that his character and strengths are deeply embedded in his DNA and impossible to wipe away. He knows that his lineage traces back to before William Wallace and that actually they are cousins. He has also learned that he has not one, but two of his ancestor's have signed the Canadian Charter of Rights. My dad learned he has ties to the Drummond Island Voyagers, people whose half French and half Chippewa roots are deeply ensconced in the history of Canada. Perhaps that's what inspired him to join the Royal Canadian Navy and fight during World War II. Perhaps that's why he seemed to naturally fit in with the French employees of the Quebec company where he worked. The success of connecting with my father's family has been immeasurable. His past is no longer invisible and he is now part of a great legacy which can be passed onto his grandchildren.
does anyone know of a Eva Crawford? She lived in Jackson ohio and columbus ohio. crawford is maiden her married thompson?T
My Crawfords started in Frederick and Linn Co Maryland . The others are as follows: Children of Mathias and Mary Crawford (Believe Mathias is son of Jonas) #1 Abraham stayed around Indiana and Cambria Co PA #2 Nancy married Christian Willyard around Westmoreland Co PA #3 Enoch married Catherine Keiffer and Rachel Templeton and stayed around Westmoreland Co PA #4 Levi and wives Elizabeth Klingensmith and Sarah Riggle stayed around Westmoreland and Armstrong Counties Pa #5 Elizabeth married Matthew Taylor from England and lived around Westmoreland Co and Leechburgh PA #6 Thomas married Elizabeth Barrett and had their children in Westmoreland Co PA . A few of the kids moved to Ohio Williams and Warren Co. #7 Joseph married Rebecca Anderson and had their family in Clay and Livingston County Missouri. Some of Joseph and Rebecca's children were in Marion Co Iowa and Carrol County Missouri, Linn Co Iowa and Ringold Co Iowa and Grundy Co Missouri There were 2 other children Sarah who married James Smith and Polly who married John Hawks. They probably stayed around Westmoreland Co PA If you are researching any of these would love to hear from you. Patti Taylor

Confederate Congressman. Crawford served as a US Representative from Georgia from 1855 to 1861. He withdrew, and was elected to the Confederate Provisional Congress (1861-1862). President Davis appointed him as a special commissioner to the Government of the United States at Washington. He left that post to serve with the Confederate army's Third Georgia Cavalry Regiment. He then served on the staff of General Howell Cobb. In later years, he was on the Georgia Supreme Court until his death.

Janet, I am interested in Zachariah Crawford. On my line, Zachariah is as far as I can go back. I have wife- Emeline Eddintone and 11 children: Alexander, Thomas, Harrriet, Eliza, Elizabeth, Lucinda, richard, Arthur, Mary Ann, and Lewis. ( Margaret & Laura died as infants). children were born in Il., but Zachariah was born in GA abt. 1784. Zachariah's father was Alexander. Does any of these sound familiar?

No, they did not that I know of this minute. But things change so fast when you research. They come from Broadsea, Fraserburgh, Aberdeen, so far all north east and they were fisher folk. My research leads to think that they might at one time been farmers and with the terrible times over there ,went to fishing. They married into the Frasers and Watt's and Nobles and so forth. The Scotts lived thru terrible hardship. I love history and have researched Scotland from 900's until now. Really interesting. I know that to discover beyond a point, little hints from others can be very important. Boy do I rattle on, sorry.
