General Notes: Husband - Jonas Crowthers

---

He came to America from Yorkshire, England, in 1850. He engaged in coal-mining, and being an expert miner, soon became an operator in and shipper of coal, in which business he was very successful.

He was from Bingley, Yorkshire, England. He was a coal merchant. He left his parents, three brothers, and a sister in England. After a stormy voyage lasting six weeks and four days, he arrived in the United States aboard the vessel "Saranac," in 1850. He came to the Monongahela Valley and settled first near Monongahela, Pennsylvania, and there married. He became one of the important early coal operators of the Monongahela Valley, and in partnership with John Musgrave, of Pittsburgh, and others, was the owner and operator of mines at Catsburg, Dunlevy, Coal Center, Lucyville, Woods Run, and near Fredericktown.
