General Notes: Husband - Samuel Crossgrove, Sr.


He was born a mile and a half from Dublin, Ireland, and was a son of a weaver who lived and died in that country. He had brothers who came to the United States, but little is known of them. One of them, William, lived in New York, and died while visiting the brother in Union County, Pennsylvania.

He learned the weaver's trade in Ireland, and when less than twenty years of age came to the United States, the ocean voyage covering three months. After working at various places he came to Union County, Pennsylvania, about 1800, and was married in Limestone township. At their marriage Mr. Crossgrove purchased fifty acres of land of his father-in-law, who had secured the same on a soldier's warrant given him for his services in the Revolution. He erected thereon a set of buildings, and developed a farm on which he made his home until his death. He and his wife were both members of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics he was a Democrat.
