I also found this will of Jeremiah Crowder on rootsweb. In addition, I have also found that this family has descended from Henry Crowder (Aft. 1619 in Charles City Co, VA and died September 1689 in Charles City Co., VA.) according to a registerd family report of the descendants of Henry Crowder. [Henry, Bartholomew, Bartholomew C., Bartholomew, Jeremiah, *Anderson] The family register report states: "Jeremiah Crowder (Bartholomew, Bartholomew C., Bartholomew, Henry, Hugh) was born abt 1760 and died in Guilford Co., NC. He married Martha. Notes for Jeremiah Crowder Will dated 01/28/1795 Children of Jeremiah Crowder and Martha are: *i. Anderson Crowder ii. Elizabeth Crowder iii. Fanny Wilson Crowder iv. Isaac Crowder v. Jeremiah Crowder vi. John Crowder vii. Patsy Crowder, m. William Satterwhite, April 06, 1764, Halifax Co., VA Viii.Pleasant Crowder ix. Sary Crowder x. William Crowder Jeremiah was born from a Bartholomew Crowder. It states: "This Bartholomew used "Batt" as his name on most of his documents and he signed using "BC" initials as his marks. "Batt" was a Revolutionary War Patriot. He has been used for the Daughters of the American Revolution. For those interested in this, you may check out "Revolutionary War Records, Mecklenburg County, VA" by Katherine B Elliot, pages 47 and 48 in your state genealogical library. This book lists the patriots and soldiers. There is also a book entitled "The Reason for the Tears" by Lindsey that tells about this Bartholomew Crowder's patriot service.
