General Notes: Husband - Col. John Crawford


The ancestors of Col. Jno. Crawford, who came direct from Ayrshire to Pennsylvania, lie buried in this [sic] Kirk-yard. The three sons of Col. Crawford moved from Pennsylvania to South Carolina with a number of Scotch-Irish, among whom were the Whites, Jacksons and Dunlaps. This branch of the Crawford family did not move to the Northern part of Ireland, but remained in their native land until they came direct from Scotland to Pennsylvania.
Robert, James and Joseph, sons of Col. Crawford, of Pennsylvania, moved to Waxhaws, now Lancaster County, South Carolina, about 1760, where the two former lived and died. Joseph is supposed to be the same as Joel, who settled first in Edgefield, South Carolina, and then moved to Georgia, and became the father of the great William H. Crawford, so distinguished in the affairs of Georgia.
