Notes:

John Crowell

John was born about 1770 at Frederick Co., MD. He died before 15 Sept 1840 when his will was probated at Clearfield Co., PA. John married 15 September 1792 at Frederick Co., MD to Susanna Dargar/Dagan/Dagin b. 1776 d. after 1850 at Clearfield Co., PA. Again here the "supposed" Bible was totally wrong. There was no reference to this John in Franklin Co., VA. The John found in Franklin Co., was the son of Michael as seen earlier in this history. Susanna is most likely the daughter of George Dagan/Dagin. George Danan sold a piece of land on 13 April 1796 to Adam Kline who also purchased land from John Crowell Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book WR 9 p. 166. George Dagin can also be found on the 1820 Census of Frederick Co., MD born before 1775 with many children (1820 Census Roll 43 p. 147).

Several deeds related to John and Susanna were found in Frederick Co., MD. On 5 May 1791 John Crowell sold to Hugh Hagan, land called Willimas Neglect containing 30 and 1/4 acres which he had received from his father Henry Crowel (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book WR 10 pp. 60 and 61). Then on 21 May 1791 Hugh Hagen sold the same tract of land containing 30 and 1/4 acres called Williams Neglect originally owned by Henry Crowell late of Frederick Co. to Valentine Rinehard. On the same day Henry Crowell conveyed his shared of this property to Hugh Hagan for 40 pounds. On 24 March 1792 John sold to Abraham Pepple part of a tract of land containing 232 acres called Bare Garden which had been the property of Henry Crowell, deceased. On the same day John Crowell transferred to Margaret Crowell, his mother, a tract of land called "Potatoe Ridge" containing 96 acres part of Bare Garden in response to her transferring her share in Bare Garden (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book WR 10 p. 531) to John which he sold to Abraham Pepple (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book WR 10, pp. 532 and 533). Brother Devault had previously transferred his share of this property to John Cooper on 18 October 1790 (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book 9 p. 517). John Crowell, cooper, purchased on 6 April 1792 from John Radish, a tract of land called "Potatoe Ridge" originally being part of a tract of land called "Sink Hole", for 400 pounds (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed BookWR 10 pp. 632 and 633). On that same date on page 633 of this deed, Margaret Crowell signed a Bill of Sale for two feather beds, 1 kettle and all her household furniture for 50 pounds current money to John Crowell. She is called the widow of Henry Crowell. Then on 7 Nov 1793 Margareta/Margaret Crowell transferred the piece of land referred to as "Potatoe Ridge" to John Crowell containing 232 acres in return for 18 pounds specie yearly for her maintenance. John then sold this land to Abraham Pepple. In all probability Margaret moved in with John and Susanna. She may have died in Frederick Co., MD and then John and Susanna and family moved to Clearfield Co., or Margaret may have moved with them to Clearfield Co., PA dying there. The last record of John Crowell in Frederick Co., is on 11 June 1794 when he sells 2 1/4 more or less acreage called "Potatoe Ridge" to Adam Kline, blacksmith. Wife Susanna released her Dower rights. John Crowell is listed as of Clearfield Co., PA when he sells a piece of ground in Emittsburg to Abraham J. Emit in 1806 (Frederick County, MD Land Records, Deed Book WR 35 p.121) .

John purchased a piece of land in Clearfield Co., PA consisting of 206 acres for $618.00 on 4 Oct 1805. John is listed in taxables of Clearfield Co. in 1806 (Clearfield County - Present and Past p. 37 (This was Chinklacamoose Twps. Center County). Letters of administration were granted on 15 September 1840 to sons, Dennis and Daniel per John's will dated 13 June 1834. There is an Amos Crowell who appears on the 1840 Census of Clearfield Co., living near Basil. Is he a son not listed in John's will? He leaves Clearfield Co. after the 1840 Census.

Notes:

Barbara Crowel Young

Abt 1759 the "supposed" family Bible gave this date alone. Barbara died before Sept 1819 at Frederick Co., MD when a will was written by her husband, Leonard Young and entered at Frederick County courthouse on 13 Sept 1819. Barbara was not mentioned and had most likely died.

Her date of birth in the "supposed" family Bible is only given as 1759 while her marriage date is recorded. As the marriage record appears in Frederick Co., MD it is probable that this is where Henry Crowl of Dayton, OH found the date and not from this supposed Bible. Barbara and husband, Leonard Young both of Frederick County, State of Maryland sold to Nathan Haines of Frederick County State of Maryland on 9 Feb 1807, a tract of land called Bear Garden inherited from Henry Crowell. The will of Leonard Young was entered at Frederick County Courthouse on 13 Sept 1819 and Barbara is not mentioned. By Leonard's will son, Solomon was listed as keeper of the crops but not he land. Daughters, Mary and Elizabeth were to keep the land and the family home.

Elizabeth married Daniel Root on 14 May 1782 in , Frederick, Maryland, USA. Daniel (son of Daniel Root and Ann Elizabeth Marshall) was born in 1750 in Frederick, Frederick, Maryland, USA; died in 1811 in , , Tennessee, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Henry Crowell

From "Supplement to Crowel History, Footprints in the Sands of Time" pg. 35; we read:

"Henry Crowel, fourth son of Henry and Margaret Crowel, of Frederick County, Md., was born November 8, 1760. Some time, perhaps late in the seventeen hundred and nineties, he moved to Botetourt County, Va., settling there as a farmer. His wife's name was Rachel Smith. Her father owned the "King Salt Works," located in Smythe County, Virginia; later on sold out and moved to Kentucky, where he died. Rachel was Mr. Smith's only child, I believe.

The Records at Frederick, Md., show that Henry and Rachel Crowel, his wife, signed papers there in the year 1807. In 1812 he sold his farm in Botetourt County, Va., and moved to Wythe or Pulaski County County, Va., dying in Pulaski in the year 1857, aged 96 or 97 years. He was a Democrat, farmer and Methodist; in his older years was a cripple, walking with a crutch and cane; rather small in stature. There were born unto Rachel and him, the following sons and daughters: George W., JOHN, William, Joseph, Harry, James, Elizabeth, Polly, Margaret, Rebecca, Ann Marie and by his second wife, Mrs.Anderson, Henry, Eliza and Susan Mary."

by Gail Komar Crowel Connections

abt 1767 based on his 1850 Census of Pulaski Co., VA (As in previous information this is the only date given in this supposed family Bible). Henry Crowel of Dayton later wrote in his Supplement to "Footprints" that his date of birth was 8 November 1760. We have been unable to verify this date. Family history and "Footprints" give his date of death as 1857. Henry does not appear on the death records of Pulaski Co. He appears on the 1850 Census of Pulaski Co., Va. but is absent from the 1860 Census so the date of 1857 is close, if not a fact. Henry married Rachel "The Supplement to Footprints" stated her maiden name was Smyth/Smith and that her father owned the King Salt Works located in Smythe, Co., VA. and that he later sold out and moved to KY. "The Supplement to Footprints" also stated that Rachel was his only child. We have found no information to verify this in Smythe Co. or Frederick Co., MD.

Henry Crowell
Henry was born about 1767 according to the "supposed" family Bible. His Census records do not disagree with this information. He married before 1787 at Frederick Co., MD to Rachel perhaps Smith/Smythe. We have been unable to prove or disprove her family name. Henry married 2nd on 6 January 1819 at Pulaski Co., VA to Elizabeth McGlocklin/McLaughlin, widow of Charles. Elizabeth Asberry d/o Thomas married Charles McGlocklin on 18 November 1777 at Bedford Co., VA. Henry Crowel died in 1857. Henry appears on the 1850 Census but is not on the 1860 Census. His death does not appear in the death records of Pulaski Co., VA.

On 29 April Margaret Crowell transferred land to her son, Henry. Henry Crowell and Rachel his wife of Taneytown sold to Hugh Hagan a tract of land being part of Bare Garden of 232 acres on 2 May 1791. A bill of sale was done on 8 May 1791. On 7 December 1792 Henry Crowell came to court to get a deed to lot #28 in Tancytown which he had purchased from Hugh Thompson, by having Mary Boyland, daughter of Jacob Good, the original owner to give a release. On 15 April 1795 Henry Crowell and Rachel sold lot #28 in Tancytown to Peter Utz. From Frederick County Indentures comes the following information, "Daniel Shaver, heretofore bound to Henry Crowl, cooper, is with consent of michael Null and Nicholas Lynn guardian of the said Daniel and Conrad Sadler, cooper, for the residue of the term is bound to said Sadler." -- Dated 1 November 1795. This is probably about the time Henry left Frederick Co., MD and moved into Virginia.

Unfortunately there is no 1800 Census of Virginia but Henry Crowle appears on the 1810 Census (roll 66 p. 613) of Botetourt Co., VA. He is not seen on the 1820 Census but appears in 1830 still in Botetourt Co., VA. In 1840 he is found on the Wythe Co., VA Census and in 1850 he is found on the Census of Pulaski Co., VA. Wythe Co., VA was formed in 1790 and Pulaski Co. was formed from Wythe in 1839. This means that Henry moved each time between his appearances on these Census. No Deeds were recorded at the Wythe County Courthouse (LDS Film 0034230 Wythe County Virginia General Index to deeds 1790-1907). However, he did have four deeds recorded in Botetourt Co.: 1800 Deed Book 10 p. 551 Henry Crowl sold land to John Middlecoff: 1809 Deed Book 9 p. 566 Henry Crowl purchased land from George Hancock; 1816 Deed Book 12 p. 210 Henry Crowell sold land to Jacob Fleager but repurchased the land in the same Deed Book 12 on p. 212. There are no deeds recorded in Pulaski Co. for Henry Crowel. It appears that with each move, Henry's fortunes decreased. Pulaski County Virginia Personal Property Tax lists start in 1847. A Henry Crowel appears in the 1848 and 1850 lists paying only $.10 for 1 horse. As Henry's son, Joseph has much more property than this tax payer and is paying a higher tax, this tax paying Henry is most likely the son of Henry and younger brother of Joseph and not the father himself.

"Footprints" fells us that Henry and Elizabeth, his second wife has four children, Anna Mariah, Henry, Jr., Eliza and Susan Mary Crowell. "Footprints" says that Henry Jr. was born between 1819-1823 and listed in Indiana however there is no space for this male on Henry, Sr.'s census records. I have found nothing on him to date. If we accept Anna Mariah's date of birth from "Footprints" as 1814, she would be the daughter of Rachel and not Elizabeth. This date of birth is consistent with Anna Mariah's census records.

From History of Frederick County, Maryland, Vol I, by Thomas John Chew Williams and Folger McKinsey, pg. 831:

"John W. England, son of Nathan England, was born near Liberty, Frederick County, Md. He grew up a farm boy. He was educated at an academy in Liberty, and when a young man became a travelling salesman through the South for a New York dry goods house. He held this position until the war broke out, when conditions forced him to abandon that work. He later followed farming in Mount Pleasant District, and died in 1873, aged about 50 years. Mr. England was married twice, his first wife was a Miss Mitchell of Washington D.C. who died at the birth of her first child. He was married secondly to Miss Ellen Hendry. She died in 1883 at the age of 40 years. She was the mother of six children."
