Hi Jeanne,
Robert Crosbie [b 1768 d 1833]of Lesmahagow, Lanark scotland] married Helen Francis in 1833. They had 12 children, Elizabeth [b1829], John [b1830], Agnes [b1833], Robert [b1835], Margaret Gray [b1837], Geroge Francis [b1839], Josiah [b1842], Harriot [Josiah's twin, apparently died in youth], George [b 1843 apparently died in youth but could be a christening recording error], James Francis [b1848], Harriot [b1849], and Ellen [Hellen b1851]. 1861 census shows Agnes' two sons living with their grandparents [Robert Philips age 10, Gavin Andrews age 7]
Josiah [age 28 miner]sailed for America on the S.S. Anglia from Glasgow 25 Aug 1774 With his nephew [Agnes' son]& family Robert Crosbie [22 miner], Helen [21] Kate [1 1/2] Josiah was killed in a mine accident in Almie Wyoming in 1881. Robert died in Ogden Utah, I don't know when.
Robert's brother Gavin followed 3 months later with Josiah's family on the S.S. Victoria from Liverpool 5 Nov 1874. Manifest shows Mary Crosbie 26, Mary 5, Thomas 3, Eliz. 9 months, and Gavin Crosbie 21 Laboror. Gavin changed his name from the galic to Guy. He worked on the railroad in Utah, from Leamington to Milford, and died in Beaver Utah 22May 1884. other than the 1881 census, Do you have any information on the rest of the family?
