I have been searching for my husband's grandfather Henry Folca Crawford, who was born in 1812, in Virginia for several years. With a middle name like Folca, I presumed it would be simple. NOT. It also doesn't help that "OUR CRAWFORDS" liked to father children well into their 60's and 70's. Everyone always tells me that I am missing a generation, but the only evidence we have to support our dates, are very respectable marriage and birth certificates for Henry (1812) my husband's father Jacob Ray(1883) and of course my husband in 1946. We know one of Henry's sons served in the Civil War. Making my husband's ability to claim he had an uncle that served in the civil war......a rare statement I think. We were told Henry's family was extreme Methodists. We know that some of Henry's oldest children moved into Minnesota and Iowa. We know Henry's first wife was named Maria. We know that Henry's second wife, was named Sarah. I have always believed that if we could find Henry's father, we would be able to finish the rest. So much for the help of a rare name. Pam (still yet another)Crawford
