The Crosbys

While not directly related to Captain Robert Brown, the following images may be of interest, as his youngest son, Theophilus, married into the Crosby family.

Elmer Crosby Sr. with sons
ca 1931

On the left is Elmer Jr., far right is his younger brother William.


Elmer Jr. with Brother Bill
ca 1937

Elmer Jr. is on left, his brother William is on the right.

William Crosby and Elmer Crosby Jr. were the sons of Elmer Thomas Crosby Sr. Elmer Sr. was the grandson of the elder Margaret, which obviously makes William and Elmer Jr. the great grandsons of the elder Margaret Crosby nee Sutton.


left to right: William F. Crosby, Alice Barwell,
Elmer T. Crosby Jr., Edith Barwell
ca 1942

The Barwell sisters were the daughters of Sarah Crosby. Sarah was the oldest daughter of Margaret Crosby nee Sutton. Or you could say the oldest sister of Margaret B. Crosby who married Theophilus Brown.


Crosby Cousins
ca 1962

The woman on the far left is Mary Lorenz, the second wife of Elmer Crosby Sr, and mother of Elmer Jr. and William F. Crosby.

The kids in the photo are the children of Elmer Jr.

Left, standing directly next to Mary is Lorraine Crosby. Closest to camera in center is Stephanie Crosby. The girl on the highest step in the center is Evelyn Crosby. The boy on the right is Karl Crosby, twin of Lorraine. Birth order: Evelyn, Stephanie, Lorraine, Karl.


More notes on the Crosbys:

The elder Margaret may have been a twin. IGI lists a Susanna Sutton christened on the same day and place as Margaret Sutton, with the same first names of parents.

Elmer Thomas Crosby Sr. had 3 children by his first wife, Beatrice Bonnar. I do not have any photos of them.

Elmer Thomas Crosby Jr. had 4 children, all with his first wife.

Elmer Jr.’s brother, William Frederick Crosby, had 3 daughters.
