Mary, My Zillah Crawford, according to her son, my grandfather, stated she & P.W. Owen were married in what is now Houston TX. bef 10/1837, because P.W. & Zilley ( as she was called) received 1280 acres as a Land Grant from Republic of Texas ( Second Class) and had to be married & arrived TX by Oct 1837. They later were in Walker County and moved on to Limestone Co about 1854-55 where they had property near Personville, I think. P.W. died before 1870 and she died before 1880 ( abt 1877-I think) . Zilley & P.W. had 10 living children so these 10 children are of Crawford blood also. Grandfather said her father's name was John but I am not sure about that. I have also wondered if her name may have been Priscilla & called Zilla as a nick name. Any help appreciated and I will chase down "any likeness" or clues. thanks Wanda

Can you find an 1830 census index for Alabama and see how many Crawfords are there? Our State Historical Society has these and you could probably find them at the Mormon library. You might also be able to contact someone at a Mormon library if they do not have one close to you. They are usually helpful. I am not Mormon but went to Salt Lake City once and loved the area and the records there. If you could find a deed from them when they left Al or when they first got to Texas, it may tell where they left from in AL. Good luck. Donna ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary L.

I have a James M. Crawford, MD who was given an Unconditional Headrights Certificate # 32 ...640 acres on 27 Feb 1843 a land grant in Washington County, Texas. He had served in the War for Texas Independence. He was also in Texas prior to the War. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Donna Stark Sent: Friday, February 16, 2007 9:30 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CRAWFORD] PLEASE LIST STATE AS WELL AS COUNTIES Can you find an 1830 census index for Alabama and see how many Crawfords are there?
