Dear List,       I have copied the pertinent facts from this abstract below concerning John Crawford from Ayrshire, SCOT, 1600-76.  For those of you who have him as a ancestor and don't have this source, it may be one other fact to add to your family tree.  In addition, I am going to post the will of John Crawford , Craven Co, SC, dated 1756.  Hopefully with your help, we can work down to MAHALALEEL CRAWFORD, or from MAHALALEEL up to John Crawford, with the facts we're gathering.  The will of John CRAWFORD follows this abstract.       I will be looking for any and all comments or facts about Mahalaleel CRAWFORD, or John's descendants.  Thanks to this list, and our "cracker-jack" (that's GOOD!!) researchers, I am a lot closer to finding Mahalaleel to, or ruling out his connection from, this line of CRAWFORD ancestors, from whom many on this list also share this lineage.       Happy hunting to us all, Winkie CRAWFORD R << John CRAWFORD, 1600-76, cadet of Kilbirnie Crawfords; arrived Jamestown, VA 1643; settled in James City Co; killed during Bacon's Rebellion.       Source:  Immigrant Ancestors ; a list of 2,500 Immigrants to America before 1750; ed. by Frederick Adams Virkus; abstracted from Vol. VII Compendium to American Genealogy.
