| Notes for Henry Crose |
Gary D. Lewis listed Henry's birthdate as 19 Sep 1897, apparently from his gravestone, but that is inconsistent with the 1900 census, which lists him as age 8, born May 1892. The 1900 census is terribly inaccurate on dates, with nearly all the months disagreeing with those given on other records, making me believe that the enumerator invented the birthdates, but it is about as close as most censuses on ages of children, and entering a child under 3 as 8 seems extreme. (There was another Henry Crose in the area, born about 1897 in Morgan Co., son of Strib Crose & Nannie Mize, who married Mary E. Ramey in 1917.)
Index to Kentucky Death Records lists Henry Crose, d. 23 Oct 1986, age 89, in Rowan Co., certificate Vol. 60, #29940, which would also imply a birthdate in 1897.
Social Security Death Index lists Henry Crose, b. 19 Sep 1897, d. Oct 1986, SSN 400-18-7970 issued in KY, last residence Clearfield, KY. |
| Notes for Belle Alfrey |
| The cemetery survey done by the Rowan County Historical Society lists the death date on her gravestone as 3 Mar 1926, but my notes from Rowan County marriage book 18 says that Abe was a widow when he married his second wife Estie Dehart on June 1925. So either the cemetery survey or my marriage notes must have the wrong year. Unfortunately I cannot find Belle in the Kentucky death index under any spelling. (I tried a statewide soundex search on Bel* Crose and Isa* Crose, and a soundex search on anything matching Crose in 1925 or 1926.) |
| Notes for Henry & Belle (Family) |
| I checked all of the marriage books between 1916 and 1922, and this marriage is not listed in Rowan Co. They may have married elsewhere. |
