Well, I thought that I had a Charles Bidwel Crofutt listed somewhere. I looked and found him. He is listed as being born about 1837 in New Milford, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. (There were a number of New England Crofutts and Crofuts who moved "west" to PA in the early 1800s). Anyway I have this Charles married to a Sarah Roberts. They had Dewitt Crofutt. I have Charles Bidwell's parents as Ezra Crofutt born 1809 in New Milford, Susquehanna, PA. Died Sept. 15, 1892 in Esbon, Jewell County, Kansas. Ezra first married an Olive Eudorah PARKS. Then married to Almyra JACKSON, born about 1814 in Vermont. Charles is their offspring as well as Lydia Helen, Mary Melvina, and Alfred Parmer. I have other Charles Crofutt, Crofuts born later in the 1800s. I had a granduncle Charles Crofut but he was born in CT but went West or South per family lore. After he left no one in the Eastern family ever heard from him again that I know of. Good luck!
