Hello again Julie A Cain,
I think we ought to email each other as I
would love to be in touch with you a lot
more and I know we will have a lot to write
each other about. My email address is:
grberry@uswest.net.
This is all very new to me because Bryan J.
Marin does not mention a son being born to
Decourcey Wright Crabb and Mary Harkness,
just their daughter Anna Rebecca Crabbe.
On page 21 of Bryan's book he said:
"Ralph C. Walters. son of Joseph P. and
Laura Crandall Walters b. Mar 7, 1879 at
Lincoln, Neb. d. May 22, 1941 at Sacramento,
Calif. m. Oct 29, 1903 to Anna Rebecca
Crabbe b. Aug 7, 1880 at Sacramento, Cal.
d. Aug 5, 1927. A dau. of Decourcey Wright
Crabbe and Mary Harkness Crabbe. One dau.
was born to this union,
(Anna Rebecca Crabbe and Ralph C. Walters)
b. Ralpha Marie Walters b. May 12, 1908 at
Sacramento, Calif."
Yes we are talking about the same
Decourcey Wright Crabbe and his lines.
Decourcey Wright Crabbe's wife Mary
Harkness was born 1 Nov 1857 in Illinois
and died on 12 Jun 1940 in Sacramento,
California. Mary Harkness is the daughter
of Roderick Duel Harkness born Sep 1825 in
Mount Vernon, Knox, Illinois and Zilpha
Ann Loomis born about 1837.
This is where the name Zilpha came from,
Mary Harkness's mother.
Roderick Duel Harkness's father is Jacob
Edson Harkness and Delana Duel. The Duel
line is my father's line, Crabbe my mother's.
Please email me. Marsha
