In Reply to: Sorting David Crews children by Duane REGENFUSS of 2246

The best information I came across on them was from "Thomas Bell, an Ulster Scott" by Rufie Lee Williams.
She says his name was David Milton. His second marriage, 27 Dec 1802, was a young widow, Mildred WILLIFORD KERLEW. She was 23 and he was 62. Several years after his death, she and several of the children moved to Howard and Boone Counties, MO. His grave and those of his youngest dr., China, and her two husbands were moved from the family cemetery on his farm at Foxtown to the City Cemetery at Richmond, KY in 1936. He is a proven DAR ancestor, listed in the DAR Patriot Index, Vol. 1, 1966. One of his descendants said he was named David3 Milton Crews, b. 2 March 1740, New Kent Co, VA, m. 1st 1761, Hanover Co., VA. d. 2 Nov. 1821, Madison Co, KY. He was a Quaker in his early life, but was dismissed because of his military activity. He was a farmer and had several land grants in Lincoln and Fayette counties, KY between 1781 and 1785. His first wife was Ann McGHEA (Annie MAGEE) dt. of Samuel McGHEA and Mary Ladd. Ann was a birthrite Quaker.
