Several genealogies report on David and his father and his descendants.
Various genealogies have different details that produce a consistent picture
of David. David came to Virginia with his father John Crawford, from
Ayrshire, Scotland, in 1643, receiving a land grant from Governor Berkley.
David's father was killed in a battle with Indians in a campaign called
Bacon's Rebellion.
David was also killed by Indians on 13 December 1689 on New Kent County,
Virginia. David is reported by some data collections and genealogies as being
born in Hanover County, Virginia, instead of Scotland. It is not clear if
there was another similar family of Crawfords, or if the reference in Hanover
and Kent refer to the dame family, with dates mangled.
Locations of the Crawfords in Hanover County may also refer to this same
family, but dates of some life events are different in records referencing
Hanover County. They are associated with a plantation in Broaddus Flats which
is in Hanover County.

Some stories and genealogies report that David lived until 1710, but others
report an exact death date of 13 December 1689. I have not been able to sort
this out from original sources, and have followed the earlier death date,
which still allows for the other known facts about his children's birth.
Here is one short story that tells about David. Note that he is referred to
as a Colonel in some sources. This story reports that he was elected to the
Virginia House of Burgesses in 1892, after the date reported by many sources
as his date of death in 1689.
===============================================
Colonel David Crawford
Colonel David Crawford (c. 1625 - 1710) was a member of the House of Burgesses
and an early plantation owner in Virginia.
David Crawford was born circa 1625, in Scotland, emigrating to the Virginia
Colony with his father, John Crawford around 1643. His father was later killed
in Bacon's Rebellion of 1676.
Crawford amassed many acres of land and owned a large plantation that
eventually became the site of Richmond, Virginia. On April 2, 1692 he was
elected to the House of Burgesses as one of two representatives from New Kent
County, Virginia for two years. He introduced a piece of legislation,
requiring that County Clerks maintain an office in their respective County
Courthouse.
As an elderly man he was killed by some Pamunkey Indians in 1710 in New Kent
County, Virginia. [other sources report he died in 1689.]

===============================================
I have found the information attached to David Crawford who died in 1710 to
show that his parents are John Crawford and Mary McConnell. It appears the
David Crawford in the line I am presenting here was Margaret Cunningham. It
appears that the John Crawford who married Mary McConnell is a different David
Crawford than the David Crawford I identify who was born in 1625. The same
birth year is given for both these John Crawfords but the death year is
different.
There were numerous Crawfords in colonial Virginia. Death records report
death of a David Crawford in 1697, 1700 and 1710, as well as the 1689 I report
here. These seem to have been mixed and I have been certain how to clarify
the family lines. These death reports do not report parents or birth dates
for comparison. I have not been able to definitively clarify which connection
is the one for my actual family. I am keeping this Crawford Question under
advisement.
The first references I found to this David Crawford were unaware of the name
of David's wife. In July 2009, I found a credible genealogy with good details
that reported David's wife as Jane, but with maiden name unknown.
David Crawford b: 1625 in Ayrshire, Kilburney, Scotland d: December 13, 1689
in New Kent Co, VA
+ Jane ? m: 1654 in James City, VA b: 1633 in VA
-- Descendants of David Crawford,
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bjcasey/crawford.htm
Note that the Valleaux genealogy reports a death year of 1704, while the
Crawford genealogy reports an exact date of 13 Dec 1689. Due to the precision
of this latter date, and other credible detail in this genealogy, this is what
I am using as the date of death for David. This source also provides his
place of death.
I have also added details on David and Jane's son Captain David Crawford and
his wife Ann Anderson and their daughter Judith. [Ann may be the stemother of
Judith, Elizabeth Smith likely being the birth mother; two families of
Crawfords may also be confused in the data collections used as sources.] The
Crawford lineage is of importance to this genealogy because Judith married
Joseph Terry and ancestor of Lewis Terry, and his descendant Julia Virginia
Terry, who married Joseph Asa Jenkins, my grandmother, in 1901 in Indian
Territory. The Crawfords of Hanover County may be the same Crawford lineage,
but there is confusoin on dates of death, with death reported variously in
Hanover or Kent.

David Crawford
Death 13 Dec 1689 Assaouin, New Kent County, VA USA
The locatoin name here appears tobe a mistranscription of the name of David
Cawford's plantation Assassquin. The plantation was built on Assassquin Run
on the York River. The name also appears as Assaquin, David Crawford was
awarded the Assassquin land for services to Governor Berkely in Bacon's
rebellion in Virginia Colony.
The history of the area finds his surname spelled Crafford. The family's
story is recorded in tdetail by Mary Callaway Jones. Her reserach is
referenced in The History of the Broaddus Flats Site.

I have found several Crawford genealogies that report seemingly reliable
information about the David Crawford and his lineage. I have found three
reported birthplaces in Virginia for this same David Crawford: New Kent Co,
the family estate Tusculum in Amherst Co, James City County, Scotland. Some of
these sources may be guessing, or there may be confusion and mixing of sources
int he collections for more than one generation of David Crawfords.

David Crawford
Gender: Male
Birth 1662 VA
Spouse Name: Elizabeth Smith
Spouse Birth Year: 1665
Marriage Year: 1695
Some genealogies report David had a wife named Ann Anderson, but do not state
any source or provide any information. I cannot find any marriage record or
anything to connect these two names. It appears from her age and other
records, however, that Ann married this David's son, who was born in 1697.
Ann Anderson is reported to have been born in 1705-1708 (after some of David's
children) and to have died in 1803. But Elizabeth Smith, for whom I find
multiple reports and records as Captain David's wife, died in 1767 (making her
102 years old, not likely).
There is an indication that there was a generation missed in the sources I
originally referenced. This appeared to be confirmed when in July 2013 I
found a report in an application for the Sons of the American Revolution
reporting Ann Anderson as the wife of David Crawford born in 1697, who was the
son of David Crawford born in 1662. This seemed to resolve the conflicts in
the previous sources.
Elizabeth's death year was probably 1727. Undocumented genealogy reports
place her death in Amherst (in 1767), but I have not found a record to that
effect.
"Captain David Crawford b: 1662 in New Kent Co.VA d: September 1762 in Amherst

in Hanover Co, VA d: 1772"
-- Descendants of David Crawford,
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~bjcasey/crawford.htm
Note that the wife of David Crawford (born 1662) is reported here as Ann
Anderson born 1705. There is a reference to Ann Anderson in Terry family
tradition. Jacque Watkins, another Terry descendant, and I have worked on the
Terry lineages and have reviewed sources she has collected from others.
"Lewis Terry's parents: Thomas Terry (1732-1818) and Nancy Dalton (daughter of
Robert Dalton and Mary Key). Thomas Terry was the son of Joseph Terry and
Judith Crawford (daughter of David Crawford and Ann Anderson)"
-- Jacque Watkins, email correspondence to Orville Boyd Jenkins, September
2008, citing Don Johnston, husband of a descendant
This source does not comment on the birth of Judith Crawford and of Ann
Anderson virtually coinciding. And the source does not document the source
for these bits of information. Genealogies with full information for Ann
report she was born in 1708 (3 years after Judith was born) and died in 1803.
Other sources indicate that Ann Anderson married David Crawford who was born
in 1697, the son of David Crawford and Elizabeth Smith. This creates a
problem for the Terry record from Thomas Terry who reports that the parents of
his mother Judith were David Crawford and Ann Anderson, though these women
were about the same age. It appears that Judith was the daughter of David
Crawford born 1662 and Elizabeth Smith.
The dates of David's marriage to Elizabeth and their other children indicate
Elizabeth is Judith's mother. There may also be some confusion over two
individuals named David Crawford. There are mixed records in the data
collections, referencing Hanover County. There may two Crawford lines with
similar names in Hanover and New Kent Counties. There is also some indication
that the same David Crawford (son of John Richard) received land in Hanover
and New Kent Counties.

I have come to the current information about this person in three stages.
First there was a line that just ended with the name of John Crawford's father
as "Earl Crawford." Sources I had seen at that point were not clear if this
man's given name is Earl, or if this is the title.
Records indicate that the Crawford family held the title of Earl of Glencairn,
but I have not probed details. The line of Crawfords we are looking at here,
whose descendant Judith Crawford later married Joseph Terry in Virginia,
appear to be from the family of the Earls of Glencairn. The lines of descent
are a bit confused in the sources I have found (as of October 2008) so I have
not yet included all the details here.
There is some uncertainty, since some researchers have tried to connect our
John Crawford (who emigrated to the colonies) to the Earl of Crawford. But
the Earldom of Crawford was a title of the Lindsay family from the time of its
creation in 1398. David Lindsay was created Earl of Crawford in 1398. The
title remained in Lindsay hands through the time when John Crawford was born
around 1900.
It is possible that the Crawford line in the colonies with which we are
concerned was from a younger son of the Earl of Crawford, who used the name of
the Earldom of his family as the surname in the New World. A second
possibility is that this was a member of the Crawford family, also as yet
unidentified, whose family held the Earldom of Glencairn referred to above.
In early July 2009 I found a genealogy that gave the name of John's father as
Malcolm, born in about 1570 n Kilbirnie, Ayrshire, Scotland. This genealogy
traces the family line back several generations earlier, to an earlier
Malcolm. There is no mention of an Earl.
-- Descendants of Malcolm Crawford,
http://www.keenekreations.net/genealogy/crawford.html#721C
A few hours later I found a further genealogy, again with good detail, that
reported another generation in that sequence. The father of John was another
John, born in 1778, whose father was Malcolm. This genealogy reported
Malcolm's birth date as 1551. This one also traces the line farther back
consistently.
I did tie this line to the Earls of Crawford, of the family name Lindsay, in
Ayrshire. One personage of that early line was:
Sir John de CRAUFORD of Ardoch (1st of Craufurdland), Born: abt. 1222
Died: abt. 1295.
John was married to Alicia of DALSALLOCK
-- http://fabpedigree.com/s092/f005120.htm
This line is also reported back by others. I found Sir John of Ardoch in the
Salzar genealogy, which I have cited in several instances:
Sir John de Crawford, Born Abt 1222 in Clydesdale, Lanarkshire, Scotland,
Died 1295 in Clydesdale, Lanarkshire, Scotland; married 1252 in Clydesdale,
Lanarkshire, Scotland to Alicia (de) Dalsallock (Born Abt 1225 in Scotland,

Margaret's obituary gives her name only as Maggie D Green. The funeral notice
gives the name as Margaret (Maggie) D. Green.
Maggie's obituary and funeral notice say she was born in Memphis, Tennessee.
But in the 1930 census, where she is listed as Maggie D, her place of birth is
reported as Texas. The reported birthplace of her Welch children and Donnie
Green also shows their mother's birthplace as Texas. But the 1910 and 1920
censuses report her as born in Tennessee.
In 1910 Maggie and her husband Thomas Jo Welch are living in Rush Springs, in
southern Grady County, north of Marlow, Oklahoma..

There is some confusion in genealogies and records concerning the child listed
above as Menuf. Some genealogies have a seemingly matching child as Menus.
But ages don't match. The Bailey Cemetery list has an entry for Menus H
Welch, born in 1906 and dying in 1917. This would explain his absence in
1920. I have not seen a genealogy that has both Manuel and Menus.

But in the 1910 census, where is Manuel, who should be about 7, if he was born
in 1903 as the cemetery list reports? It appears the enumerator wrote Daniel
instead of Manuel. The child Daniel in 1910, reported as age 7, matches
Manuel L of 1920, at age 17.
