My search pertains to ELI CROW born in about 1839. He was my paternal great-grandfather. I would like to find out who his wife was and who his parents were. My brother says that our grandfather's dad was an Eli Crow. The only Eli I have found was the Eli born in 1839, son of Eli and Anna McLeRoy. My grandfather was William Cooper Crow. He left home as a teenager or before and nothing is know of his parents. William was born September 17, 1885 and died June 8, 1929. He lived most of his life in East Texas and Merryville, Louisiana. I am trying to find out more information on the Eli born in 1839. I found him on suelynn's ancestry page. My grandfather, WILLIAM COOPER CROW, apparently left home at an early age and was taken in and raised by the sheriff of DeRidder, Louisiana. Someone emailed me and ask if Lera Crow who taught elementary school at Call, near Newton, might be a connection. I don't know but any information would be appreciated and will be followed up on.
