Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kYQ.2ACIB/160 Message Board Post: Indian Relic Collector Dies Fred H. CROFOOT, 87, and one of the foremost collectors of Indian relics and curios of the long ago in the Genesee Country, passed away at his home in Mt. Morris recently. Fred H. CROFOOT obtained his education in the public schools and LeRoy academy. He engaged in farming until April, 1896, when he became supervisor of the division of male patients at Craig Colony, holding this position until his retirement some years ago. Mr. CROFOOT had in his possession one of the finest collections of Indian relics to be found in this part of the state, and he was considered an authority on matters pertaining to the Red Men who roamed the Genesee Valley before the arrival of the white people. On numerous occasions he was consulted about Indian villages and camp sites, and in order to prove his statements he prepared a map showing the exact location and name of all Indian villages in Livingston county. There were some 80 sites on the map, as drawn to scale by him. He started his collection of Indian relics in his boyhood days, adding to it throughout his long life, and it is believed that this collection will now be turned over to the Livingston county Historical society. When Mr. CROFOOT started his collection, the field was new and his relics grew rapidly in number. He said that he often dug up as many as 200 stone implements used by the Indians in a single day, being able to tell by the lay of the land where he might expect to find the implements or arrow-heads. Sold 10,000 Stone Implements. Among his relics was a cannon ball fired at Pultneyville in the War of 1812, and a powder horn carried in the Sullivan expedition through the Genesee Country in 1779. Back in 1913, he sold 10,000 stone implements used by the Indians to the State museum at Albany, he having collected all of these during his long search. Another rare collection is a string of brass buttons which he gathered at different points at Livingston county many years ago. He claimed the brass and shiny buttons were taken from early settlers by Indians in their raids and worn by them as ornaments until lost. Probably the oldest relics of white manufacture to be found in western New York are those of Jesuit make found in Groveland and vicinity by Mr. CROFOOT during the years he was connected with the Craig Colony. In his varied collection, taken from newly plowed soil in Livingston, were tiny metal bells of the sort which history records were brought into western New York from 1600 to 1700 - a century ahead of occupation by white pioneer farmers. These tiny bells resemble in shape the earlier variety of sleigh bells, except that where the latter are from one inch up, these Jesuit bells are no larger than a pea. Indian girls found gratification in sewing them to their clothing. [Northern Allegany Observer obituary, transcribed by Louise Y. Mills, 2003, from Cora Lahr's scrapbooks, Fillmore, NY]]

So at this point I'm alittle confused. I know that a lot of people we're unable to read and write so there for their names were spelled by other people by the way the name sounded.Hope to talk to you soon Beth

Hi, My particular line of CROFUTs were not settled in Bradford County, PA. I just happened to move here from NJ. and found the Crofut names in the Leroy Cemetery, just east of Canton, PA. There are many Crofuts (yes, that is the spelling on the tombstones) buried there. It was a section of the county still known as CROFUT. Though there aren't any living there now. There is another stone in the Burlington, PA old ME Church cemetery for Andrew CROFUT d. age 23, on March 2, 1846. He is the only CROFUT in that cemetery. Many of the cemeteries in Bradford County, Tioga County PA and Chemung County in New Yok can be found with their listings of those buried there on www.rootsweb.com/-pabradfor/cemetery.htm. You might try here for your Bradford County ancestors.

CROFOOT. These are my line. Lyman and Ann are my GGGrandparents. Hope this helps.

Hi Patti, No I'm not in Medina Co. I'm in Lancaster...which is in Fairfield Co, to the south of you & buried in snow! LOL I love that part of the state! Went through there this summer from Lake Erie to Amish country. Do you know or have ran across where Joseph Crowfoot came from??? I have been trying to search this family for some time & finally made a break through last Aug. This is my mother-in-law's maiden name & she seems not willing at all to give any information out (been trying for 26 yrs!!!!!). I turned to the internet.......& have dug up some information. I've found some info from the census records at our library. My husband's grandfather went to TX in the early 1940's.........& remarried. Not too sure if he had any other children. Where are your ancestors from?
