    Notes:

    "Information from Howard Crose" Sent to me by Linda Crose in 2000.

    Christian Crose can be found on the 1st cenus of 1782, List of Vincent Williams Gent, Hampshire Co, Va. show 11 members.

    Christian disinherited Michael Crose his son because Michael married his sisters daughter (his niece), however Christian gave Michael's share to his children and grandchildren.

    Solomon Crose (Christian's son) states that Christian and Barbara Crose were both born in Virginia.

    The Crose Family pioneers started with Christian Crose as the partiarch of the family in Augusta county, VA. Then Frederick Co. Va. was formed from Orange and Augusta Counties in 1728-43. Hampshire Co. Va. was formed from Frederick Co. in 1754. Hardy Co.,Va. was formed from Hampshire Co. in 1785. The present Grant Co, WV was formed from Hardy Co. in 1866. Early records have Christian Crose in all of the above counties but yet he has lived on Patterson Creek near Williamsport, WV since the first record in 1757.

    In year 1757, Christian Crose had in his household, his wife and three children, Elizabeth, Henry, and Philip. During the French and Indian Wars his family and his neighbors would travel over the mountains nine miles to Fort Pleasant now known as Fort Old Fields. The Shawnee Indians in 1754, the year Hampshire County was formed, were the indians who attacked the area between the Hardy County Area and the Monongalia River to the West.

    In the spring of 1756, one of the marauding groups of indians, of about sixty of seventy warriors, said to be under the leadership of Shawnee Chief Killbuck, raided a home about 15 miles up the "South Fork of the river Wappatomake", killed and scalped one woman, a Mrs. John Brake, and took another, a Mrs. Neff, prisoner.

    The log cabin that Christian Crose built and lived in was burned by the Confederates during the Civil War. Another log cabin was built and still referred to as the Croses Cabin. The second log cobin was torn down in 1973 and a mobile home rests on its foundation. The fresh water spring that was used by Christian Crose is still in use today.

    Exerts from Christian Crose will Quote "Also my will is that my son Michael Crose shall have no part in his possession but that his children shall have his part of share which is to equal the share of each of the -- residue of my children." Michael Crose, it is assumed, married his niece Mary Ross against the wishes of his father Christian Crose.
