That is as far as my info goes in your direction - would love to get filled in. Obviously, I was remiss in stating that Ellen Virginia died in Virginia - she died and was buried in WV. I answered without looking. I spent many, many hours years ago working on the Jones connection - back when you had to visit libraries and write court houses to find info. Making a connection between Nancy Crawford and David Crawford and David Crawford Jones that was more than circumstantial evidence took quite a while. With so much info online, you may have everything that I have gathered - but I have tried to find as close to original records as I could. There maybe some that I can share with you. I have census info and death certificates for David C and Eliza plus some deed info and misc. Perhaps we should email directly.
