Reply to email address: [email protected] I am a Crumrine descended from Georg (arrived Phila 1748). Jacob was one of his sons or grandsons, I'm not too clear on that at the moment. It's been a year since I last looked at any of this. Here is information from "A History of the Jefferson College Class of 1860" by Rev. James W. Wightman, D.D. (class historian), printed in 1911. Georg's grandson Boyd graduated from W&J in Washington, PA in 1860 then served in the Pennsylvania militia throughout the civil war, as quartermaster for the county, I believe.

If someone could send me the site for subscribing I would be grateful. I would also like to find out more about the Crumrines in Reno, NV who have the jewelry & belt buckle company. "... In the office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth at Harrisburg are preserved the original lists of over thirty thousand German immigrants into Pennsylvania within the period 1727-1776... These lists are in Rupp's "Collection of Thirty Thousand German Immigrants," published some years ago and found also in Vol. 17, Second Series, of the "Pennsylvania Archives." ... In this collection of thirty thousand names there are but two "Krumreins."...And on September 5, 1748, "the ship 'Edinburgh,' James Russell, Master, from Rotterdam, last from Portsmouth," landed with one hundred and twenty-seven person. In this list of names is that of "George Lenhart Krumrein"... The Lutheran Church Registry at Dottingen, in Wurtemberg, Germany, shows that "Hans Michael Krumrein" was born in Yungholzhausen, between the rivers Rhine and the Necker, not far from Stuttgart, in Wurtemberg, on June 13, 1713... The same registry shows the name of "George Leonhardt Krumrein" as born at the same place on September 7, 1719, and after as a communicant for the last time in 1746, after which his name is no more to be found... There are records in the heart of Germany yet to be received, by which the family name "Krumrein" may be traced back to 1592. (Footnote) It will be interesting, at least to the descendants of Mr. Crumrine, to know that his genealogy, as far back as learned, is now shown by a table made up from the Parish Records of the Lutheran Church at Dottingen, in Wurtemberg, Germany, and certified by the pastor in charge; from which, beginning with Thomas Krumrein, born in 1592, and, adding his ancestry in America through the immigrant, his line is as follows: Thomas Krumrein, born at Yungholzhausen in 1592; had son Georg, born 1629; who had son Georg, born 1667; who had son Georg Philipp, born 1696; who had son Georg Leonhardt, born 1719, who, in 1748, emigrated to America and settled in Old Baltimore County, Md., and had a son Abraham, who had a son George, who had a son George and also a son Daniel, and one of Daniel's sons was our classmate, Boyd Crumrine. ...George Lenhart Krumrein settled in Baltimore County, Md., which then extended westward as far as York County, PA. And in the year 1800, George Crumrine, a son of Abraham, who was a son of George Lenhart, passed from Baltimore county, Md. near Melrose, now Carroll County, Md., over the Alleghanies [sic] into the valley of the Monongahela, and settled upon a farm on the east side of Plum Run, in East Bethlehem Township, Washington County, Pa. (The rest is about George Crumrine's descendants in Washington County.) There is another Crumrine cousin named Delores Rutherford who did so much research it filled a room of her house and she gave it all to the Mormon library. She sent me the file numbers for all of that material. She included photos of Georg Lenhart's original farm in Maryland and of Yungholzhausen in Germany. This is from Delores: >In my research, I found that my gr-grandfather and his [Boyd Crumrine Patterson] were brothers, both sons of George KRUMRINE/CRUMRINE who had gone to Wash. Co., PA about 1800-1801 from Baltimore/now Carroll Co., MD. His (and your) ancestor was George's son, Daniel, and mine was George's son, Abraham. >Boyd Crumrine left a wonderful legacy that got me going on this family. He was quite accurate, but I found that he misread old Georg KRUMRINE's will when I ordered a copy of it. [Old] Boyd read part of it as "my named children" (having named six of them), but I read it as "my nine children" and went about checking all of the probate records involved. I found that there were three other children by his who were underage when he died: Peter, George and Michael. Previous to this, Gale Crumrine (whose name and address I sent to you yesterday) had been unable to fit his Peter in to any CRUMRINE family. These probate records fit Peter and his brother Michael who had gone first to Greene Co., PA and then to Darke Co., OH in to our Georg's family. (Boyd Crumrine Patterson was the son of Boyd Crumrine's daughter Louise.) Here is Delores' information on the Mormon files: >You will find your CRUMRINE ancestry on Mormon Microfilm Nos. 1597596 through 1597601. The Index to the charts is on the first microfilm. These films will take you back to 1592 (all proven) for your CRUMRINE/KRUMREIN family and there is lots of biographical information on them (census, deeds, church records, etc.). For further information on the earliest generations of this family, see my two articles in THE PENNSYLVANIA GENEALOGICAL MAGAZINE: Volume XXXVI (36), No. 4 (1990) Volume 41, No. 4 (Fall/Winter 2000) Please write more about your family interest. I just love finding Crumrines past and present. We had a family reunion in June in Washington, my grandmother turned 100! Patricia Bishop (nee Crumrine)
