William Henry Crosswhite was married to Mary Margaret Turner 10 Mar 1842 in Boone Co., Misouri.You can find them on the 1850 Federal Census for Boone Co., Missouri.They moved betwen 1850 and 1860 to Platte Co., Misouri.You can find them on the 1860 Federal Census for Platte Co., Missouri. Also in 1870 Pettis township, Platte Co., Missouri Federal Census as W. H. Crosswhite.He died in 1875 and I am assuming Mary Margaret Turner Crosswhite then moved to live in Kansas with one of her children.I have not tried to find her in the 1880 census for either Kansas or Missouri She died in 1885 in Kansas. Mary Margaret Turner was born in Wayne Co., Kentucky.Her parents were living there from about 1810 (Her father appears on the 1810 Federal Census for Wayne Co., Kentucky) until about 1838 (last deed record for sale of land by Wiliam and Elizabeth Turner in Wayne Co., Kentucky-I have traced all of their land transactions in Wayne Co., Kentucky).William Turner is then in Boone Co., Missouri on the 1840 Federal Census for Boone Co., Misosuri. He can be found in the 1850 and 1860 Federal Census for Boone Co., Missouri and in 1870 Federal Census for Audrain Co., Missouri where he died in 1876.The parents of William Henry Crosswhite, Thomas Crosthwait and Susanna Powers, were married in 1821 in Fleming Co., Kentucky.They had moved to Boone Co., Missouri by 1830.You can trace him on the 1830 and 1840 Federal Census for Boone Co., Missouri. He died in 1850, evidently before the census taker had visited his home as his widow can be found in the 1850 Federal Census for Boone Co., Missouri.That should help you with the migration of both William Henry Crosswhite and Mary Margaret Turner Crosswhite from birth to death.
