Robert, Thanks for remembering me....you are the first break I've had...most of the information I have found out has been on my own through Census records, Social Security applications, birth certificates & death certificates...no one seems to know this family.....you have made my day!!!! I did find Cleveland living with his grandfather Samuel...and I did find that his mother was Nangus....and most recently through his sister Manda Fannie Crawford who married Jacob Hoover I found on her Social Security form that her mother was Nang Shifflett.... But I've still been unable to discover what was Cleveland's father's name??? Also what was Samuel's (Cleveland's grandfather) parent's name??? In this book does it give any clue to what either Cleveland or Samuel's parents names were??? Also how does Zachariah Crawford fit into the picture is this Samuel's father, grandfather, or ggrandfather?? Any assistance woudl be greatly appreciated...if you or any of my other cousins have access to the Harrison Library and would be willing to do some research I would be willing to compensate you for your efforts.....I live all the way out in sunny California.
