General Notes: Husband - James Crawford


He remained a resident of Ohio until he was sixteen years of age, at which time the family removed to Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. He married and bought a small farm in North Beaver Township. This he soon afterwards sold, purchasing a farm near Mt. Jackson, which he also sold in a few years, buying the another farm which consisted of 120 acres in Big Beaver Township and 100 acres in North Beaver Township, the house being in Big Beaver and the barn in North Beaver Township. This property he subsequently cultivated until his death. In his early manhood, after coming to Pennsylvania, he had followed for a time the trades of bricklaying and stone-cutting, building many walls throughout that section. Just shortly before his death he was elected to the office of county commissioner, but never entered upon its duties.


General Notes: Wife - Nancy Lindsey


She came to Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, when a child, with her parents, was educated in a log schoolhouse. When a girl of eighteen she joined the United Presbyterian Church at Bethel.
