We now have three genealogy files on this site: our main database which is a combined ‘Ives-Leedom’ tree, plus two additional working trees with so-far unconnected people I've found along the way, ‘Leedoms-unknown’ and ‘Netherlands-unknown’. All of the Search results will identify which tree contains the individual or place in question.

Different sources sometimes have conflicting information and there are undoubtedly a few typographical errors in here as well. Please feel free to send us any corrections to errors you may find in our files. Additions are always welcome too!

    • James W. Crowell (photo online), born in Pulaski, VA. James married Nancy Hurst on 25 March 1852. He fought in the Civil War with Company C., 4th Virginia Infantry and was killed in the battle of First Manassas (Bull Run) on 21 July 1861. He was 30 years old. The children of James and Nancy were:
      Augustus Matthew Newton - b1852, VA mar Nancy Ashworth
      Ballard W. - b. 1854, VA mar Lizzie Odell
      Matilda Rachel - b. 1856, VA mar Reason Hurst
      Jonathan - b. 1859, VA
      James Watson ("Doc") - b. 1861, VA mar Rebecca Dove Graham

      From: http://www.capital.net/~rbinfo/htmcrowl.htm-Rebecca Rector

      Listed immediately after James and Nancy in the 1860 Pulaski Co census is Jemima Hurst age 70, Matilda Nestor age 35, Amacilla Nestor age 13.

      Also listed on the muster roll of the Co. C, 4th Va Volunteer Infantry, Pulaski Guards, Stonewall Brigade along with James Crowell is D.C. Crowell [James' brother David Cloyd Crowell] and A.N. Crowell (possibly James' brother whom I have listed in this database only as Newton Crowell or, remotely, James' son Augustus Newton Crowell though he was only born in 1852).
