Hello everyone, I'm researching William Crosby and his descendants. William came to Huron Co., sometime after 1824 from NY and left sometime before 1873. Right off the top of my head I can't remember where he was in 1870 but he died in 1873 and is buried in Neosho Co., KS although it looks like he may also have a headstone in Huron County (Pg.136 according to the cemetery index.) According to his War of 1812 pension papers he lived in Crawford Co., KS and his widow also lived there in 1880. I've been able to identify the following male children as belonging to William. I have: James, Lafayette, Edson, Francis Byron, Alford D., and Albert J. According to the 1830 Huron Co. census, He also had 5 females. I have not been able to find many and the two I did find Orphelia and Alice (both listed in the IGI [morman online]) I can't prove as his daughters. If anyone out there has some suggestions I am more than willing to accept help. Gail
Hello Gail, Perhaps you could broaden your search by listing all the surnames from Huron County you're related to. --Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gail Chamberlin" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2003 6:36 PM Subject: [OHHURON-L] Researching William Crosby > Hello everyone, > I'm researching William Crosby and his descendants.
