I have reached Oliver Cronk who was born in Oneida Co., New York according to 1855 NY State Census. He had a wife Sophia and son Charles, (my 2x great grandfather). There seem to be a lot of Oliver Cronks, (popping up in Michigan, Nebraska, and Canada. But all census records point him to being born in New York around 1828-1832. Would like to know anything about him. And especially his parents names. (They were born in New York also) His son Charles ended up dying in Missouri and I found a Death Certificate of an Oliver Cronk in Missouri who was born in New York. At the time of death, he was married to a Miranda who was about 20 years younger than him. It also mentions that this Oliver Cronk's father's name was a John Cronk who was born in New York. Unknown mother listed. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
