I am a direct descendant. I have quite a bit of information on the line but I (and others before me) hit a bit wall on his parents but it's suggested that it was Vincent Crabb and Sally (Sarah) possibly Jamison. Are you a descendant of John Wesley Crabb?

Vincent M. Crabb was a brother to my ggg grandmother, Fannie Minor Crabb. They were the children of Vincent Crabb and Sarah Jamison. Vincent M. was born around 1805 in Pickaway County, Ohio. One other known sibling is Jarrett Crabb, also born in Pickaway County and moved to Kosicusko County, Indiana with his wife and in-laws, William and Sarah Leazenby, in the late 1830s. The Crabb line goes back to the 1600s in Westmoreland County, Virginia but the Jamison line is still a brick wall. The older Vincent Crabb's father was Gerrard Crabb and his mother Elizabeth Minor. I suspect that son Vincent M's middle name was also Minor but I haven't been able to prove that fact as of yet. Karen Conley karenconley47@columbus.rr.com

Did you find proof of the elder Vincent being the son of Gerrard Crabb and Elizabeth Minor? How do we know Fannie and Vincent were brothers? I don't think we will find what Vincent M's middle initial is. I looked for that for years.

If it helps at all, I had a distant aunt that visited the cemetery where Vincent M. and Hannah are buried (I visited there myself years later) . It was noted that someone recorded a William Crabb who would have been Vincent M.'s age or older but sadly it was later written that the row where the graves were had a fence installed there and the stones were not there. Did you ever run into a William? It sits on hill with a ravine so I imagine that it's possible some of the old neglected stones just fell down the hill and were buried. The cemetery was turned into an Indiana natural prairie grass area and therefore never attended to. I'm sure the state thought this was a really great thing to do but it's not when your relatives are buried there. I also have another line buried in that cemetery;
