Biography

Research Notes

Jesse Crowder may not be the correct father. 2 marriage records give different dates for the marriage 6 Mar and 10 Mar. Also, Texas Deaths, 1890-1976 gives father as Nathan Rogan (transcription error of Ragan). 1850 Census shows different wife and 2 oldest offspring, Sarah and Louisa, but 3 oldest others listed above.
