I am the GG Grandaughter of David Crockett Criswell who was born 5 Oct 1857 in Georgia near Stone Moutain. He married Mary Frances (Fanny) Odom (or Odum) in Georgia. He claims to have been raised by his mothers brothers and did not know who his father was. The family has very little information on his early history. An 1880 census shows them in Gates, Gwinnett, Georgia with Fanny's mother Mary A. Odum and Serina M.Odum (possibly a sister to Fanny). My great aunt Minerva is 7 months old on that census. Fanny had a brother named Ben.
