Barbara is buried in Barbarick Goers Cemetery in Bland, Missouri.[4]
Barbara Groner/Croner was born between 1770 and 1772 in North Carolina. Her parents are probably Christopher Groner/Croner and Catherine Misenheimer. Barbara was first married to Nicholas Walter and had four children.
Barbara's 2nd husband was Daniel Crider. Daniel was born between 1765 and 1770 in North Carolina. Some sources indicate he was born as late as 1772 in Cabarrus County, North Carolina. Other sources say around 1770 in Lancaster County, Pennslyvania. At any rate, he was living in North Carolina as a small boy. Other variants of his name are Kreider.
After the death of her first husband, Nicholas Walter, Barbara married Daniel Crider on February 8, 1799 in Rowan County, North Carolina. They were married at the Union East Lutheran "Peint" Church. The marriage took place at Peint Church, located about 5 miles east of Salisbury, North Carolina along the Bringle Ferry Road. The service was conducted by Pastor Storch.
After the death of her first husband, Nicholas Walter, Barbara married Daniel Crider. She and Daniel continued to live on the land that she and her 4 children by Nicholas Walter had inherited at the time of his death. This land consisted of 255 acres, located on the west side of Little Cold Water Creek in North Carolina. North Carolina laws permitted the use of the land by the parent of guardian, (in this case, the mother, Barbara) until the children were of legal age. At that time, in 1816, the Cabarrus Court appointed deputies to survey, divide and partition the acreage, making allowance for the widow's dower and each of the fourt children. A plat dated August 29, 1816b allotted Barbara Crider (widow) 58 1/2 acres; Lot 1. This land is located in Cabarrus County, North Carolina at the headwaters of Cold Water Creek, which flows to the south and Crane Creek which flows north into Rowan County,
After the legal procedures were complete, each child sold their share of the land. It is believed their decision to sell this 58 1/2 acres and relocate elsewhere came after the court's decision to divide up the land and the other acreage belonging to the children was sold.
Economic conditions would have been the prime factor in making the decision to relocate. The family's small acreage was hardly sufficient land on which to raise and support the growing family. The War of 1812 had ended and therr was much discussion locally of lands available in the west.
In 1810, aside from farming, the principal industry in Cabarrus County was looms that turned out thirty-nine thousand, five hundred and sixty yards of plain and mixed materials annually. The census notes that two hundred and fifty-seven of these looms existed. The area was then as it is now, an important center of the textile world.
By 1817, all of Daniel Crider's step-children had married.
It is believed that Daniel Crider and Barbara Groner Walter Crider and their family arrived in Missouri from North Carolina about 1818. Initially, the family is believed to have settled in the vicinity o Pin Oak Creek near present day Mount Sterling, Gasconade County, Missouri. On current topographic maps, the area is presently labeled as "Crider Hollow". A voter list of Gasconade County for June 6, 1828 includes the reference of 4 voters named Crider. It is believed that they were Daniel and his sons James, Joseph and Daniel, Jr.
In addition to loving the land Daniel also loved finding new ways that would make it more productive. Daniel Crider settled across the Missouri River and several miles to the west of Daniel Boone in what latr would become Gasconade County, Missouri. When the Crider family settled in the area, along with them were the Reed, Maupin and Ridenhour families. All of these families led a great deal to the eventual formation of Gasconade County, Missouri.
On April 5, 1832 Daniel Crider pre-emptied an 80 acre tract of land (at $1.25 per acre) in Section Nineteen, Township Forty-two, Range Six West. These lands were later bequeathed to his son, James. This land is located in Third Creek Township and is traversed by Crider Creek (six miles north of Balnd, Missouri) that wss named after Daniel. This land is also south of Mount Sterling. Many deer abounded in this area and provided a bountiful supply of food along with the numerous fish that were available from what would become known as "Crider Creek". Daniel is believed to have lived on this land for the remainder of his life until he died in 1842.
Daniel Crider passed away about July 23, 1842 in Gasconade County, Missouri. He is buried at Barbarick Goers Cemetery in Gasconade County, Missouri.
Barbara Groner/Croner Walter Crider passed away about 1835 in Gasconade County, Missouri. She is bufried at Barbarick Goers Cemetery in Gasconade County, Missouri.
There is a picture of the monument of Daniel and Barbara Crider at the Find a Grave site for Barbarick Goers Cemetery. On that site they list Barbara Groner Crider as being born in 1770 in Pennslyvania and passing away in 1840 in Gasconade County, Missouri. Her four children by Nicholas Walter are listed as Margaret, Peter, Elizabeth and Paul. Daniel Crider is listed as being born in 1770 in the United States of America and passing away June 23, 1842 in Gasconade County, Missouri.
Barbara Groner/Croner Walter Crider was married to Nicholas Walter before 1788 in North Carolina. Since she was married to Daniel Crider in 1799, this indicates she was married to Nicholas Walter less than eleven years. One source from The Lager Diebolt Raush Laub Genealogy states that Nicholas Walter died about January 1797 in Cabarrus County, North Carolina.
