I am related to Squire Cruse his son Thomas Jefferson Cruse- Anderson Franklin Cruse Sr.-- Anderson Franklin Cruse Jr.-- Syble ann Cruse and myself... The book was called The record of east texas by ethel cruse walker. Thank for all the help

I notice you have Anderson Cruse in Texas. Do you have any information on Anderson Cruse in Kentucky in early 1800s. I have a family tree member in Kentucky as Anderson Cruse(Crews) , looking for further info.
thanks.

What kind of info are you wanting for Anderson Crews in Kentucky? Is this the Anderson married first to Levina Williams and 2nd wife was Nancy Lynch? ~ Rita

Yes, this is the guy I am interested in.
I do not have any information any earlier than Anderson Crews.
I think we have corresponded before. Do you have any new info?

No, I have no new information regarding Anderson's parentage. I have determined, using tax records, his birth year; and using court records determined about when he died (August 1824). We think his father might be Thomas, based on nameing patterns, but haven't been able to find any conclusive evidence to prove or disprove it. Have also pretty much determined that his widow, Nancy (Lynch) Crews remarried her 1st cousin, John Lynch, in Missouri but I haven't been able to get my hands on their marriage record after trying 3 different counties. His will mentions his wife Nancy, but doesn't give any of her other names. I have both their death dates, but apparently there isn't a well marked grave for either of them (I've attempted to ask someone to take pictures but got no response), no death records for either, and no land records that mention her, so I'm having an impossible time *proving* that he did indeed marry his cousin, Nancy Lynch Crews, but the census bears witness...

Is any of this new information for you? Do you have anything to correct or add? PLease let me know, ok?
