I would love to know if anyone is working on the Crowell family that settled around the Falmouth area. Sarah and Rachel Crowell were sisters that married brothers Edward and William Spencer. Sarah and Rachel lived to be over 100. I would love to locate their parents. they were born abt. 1810-1830. Sarah died in Wolfville and Rachel in Falmouth. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm wondering if Rachel and Sarah are connected to my Robert Crowell born about 1810. He was the husband of Harriett Amelia Davidson. In the 1891 census in Windsor, NS Lucy Isabella Spencer age 3 is listed as the daughter of Harriett Crowell (Davidson). She is clearly not the mother, but maybe an Aunt?
Lucy's parents are John Alexander Spencer and Mary Julia Bishop. As shown on her birth record. https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVRF-LKKS
John is the son of Edward Spencer and Rachel Crowell.

Hi, this is very interesting. I just checked the 1891 census and see that Lucy was with the Crowell family but in 1901 she was back with her family. Robert very well could be a brother to Sarah and Rachel but the problem is proving it. Do you know who Robert's parents were? Dawn
