Individual Details

Elizabeth Crawford

(Apr 1843 - 1923)



Said to be daughter of Valentine Crawford.

-- MERGED NOTE ------------



On the Ancestry Family Trees, Elizabeth had become Elizabeth Bowman Crawford - because of the middle name (if she had one, it would have been from her mother, Isabell Bowman) she has repeatedly been given a Bowman father. This is just wrong... Her father was Valentine Crawford as shown repeatedly in the census records.
