These 3 brave Crawford ladies were born in the 1880's in Ireland and came to America to New York around approximately 1900. It seems that when they came here, they sent every extra penny back to relatives in Five Mile Town in Ireland so there must have been relatives there but as far as I can tell, no one else made it here and I can't find out names.
Anyone out there have relatives who were grateful to a trio of Aunts in America from 1895 to 1940 and later? My great-aunt thought there might have been 4 or so siblings and older relations back in Ireland. They sent so much of their wages back to Five Mile Town that when the eldest married she literally "didn't have a dime."
Margaret Jane? or Margaret M.? Crawford seems to be the oldest of the three and born in 1880 or 1881 in Ireland. She married a James Francis Dennison, a blacksmith from Ireland and they lived in Ellisburg, NY and had four daughters who lived to adulthood: Henrietta (short annulled marriage to a discovered bigamist, Emma (married a James Cuthbert), Eva (married Joseph Levere) and Isobel (had a first marriage which was annulled and then married and divorced William Beverly Buschgen). Isobel Dennison was my maternal Grandmother.
Susan Crawford who never married. Believe born after above sister.
Mary? or Marjorie? who introduced Margaret to her future husband James Francis Dennison, but that's all I know.
Thanks for any help here,
Terri Dance
