    1. Re: [CROFOOT] Crofut help please?
    2. Thank you so much for the information! I have Mabel Crofut married to Munson or Monson Keeler on 3/20/1825 and her death about June of 1832 in Danbury. I don't know where these dates came from but I am still searching. Now my next question, Do you have a listing for a Huldah A Crofut alive during 1864? I ask this because of the following: Munson and Mabel (Crofut) Keeler had three children Nathan , Mabel and Samuel Crofut Keeler. Nathan Keeler married Ellen (Elenor) Hickerson they had two children Francis(Frank) and Estella. Ellen died while the children were young and left Nathan with the children to raise alone. Nathan went to war in 1863 and had to leave those children with someone and we believe that it was a Crofut relative. Nathan was killed in 1864 in VA and soon after there was application made for his pension. A Huldah A Keeler is listed as wife applicant and under minor comments the name Huldah A Crofut (GDN) is listed. I have not sent for the records but I am quessing that this Huldah was the one taking care of the children. I don't find any marriage listing yet so I am wondering if she applied for the pension to take care of the children. Maybe she was a Keeler and married a Crofut? Lots of questions needing answers. Thanks for any help you have and can give me Carley
