General Notes: Husband - Thomas Crawford


He was one of the pioneer settlers of Erie County, Pennsylvania. Born at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, he located in North East township, Erie County, about 1796, on the Lake road, and purchased two hundred and forty acres in that vicinity, a portion of which was later known as the Carr farm. He followed agricultural pursuits throughout the active years of his life and was a Whig in politics.

Another source states that he was born in Hanover township, Dauphin County.
