I am looking for information on William R. Crawford, born 1834 in Mississippi. William R. married Mary A. Elizabeth Turner, born 1842 Republic of Texas to Samuel Turner and Emily Midkiff. William R. and Mary were married 1868 in Angelina County, Texas. They had at least one child, Sarah, born 1868 in The State of Texas. No other information can be found on either of these until the 1880 census that shows William R. and Mary have both died and there are 3 children living in the house of a C.A. Crawford, shown as a widow, born in Alabama in 1824. Need name of C.A. and the name of her husband. What happened to William and Mary. There is also a marriage in 1872 for a William R. Crawford - is this the same William. Information on the children would be helpful. Also looking for information on Sarah Jane Crawford (was she William's sister) that married Pleasant Turner, brother of Mary, in 1861 in Angelina County, Texas. Pleasant was born 1838 in The Republic of Texas. I will gladly share and appreciate ANY help. Betty --- in Texas
