Subject: [ILMAGA] MARGARET PRISCILLA (BOX) CROUCH
Date: Fri, 29 May 2009 09:33:49 -0700


MARGARET PRISCILLA BOX (my gggrandmother) was born in Illinois around
1830 - which county I don't know. She married WILLIAM FRANKLIN
CROUCH 19 Aug 1849 in Davis County Iowa. William was born 18 Sep
1825 in Edgar County, Illinois (died 24 Mar 1916 in Stafford
Cemetery, Stafford, Kansas).

Sometime between 1849 and 1853, MARGARET and WILLIAM moved from Iowa
to Illinois because five of their children (1853-1859) - Rachel
Ellen, Antipa J., Aletha Victoria, and Vernelia Noble and Aurelia
(twins) - were born in Illinois. Vernelia and Aurelia were born in
Sullivan, Moultrie County, Illinois. Not sure where Emily (1865) and
Virginia (1866/67) were born. Last child John W. Crouch was born (27
Jul 1871) in Missouri. MARGARET died at the end of 1873 or the
beginning of 1874 in Butler County, Missouri.

Does anyone know about a BOX family in Illinois - which county or
counties? Or specifically about MARGARET PRISCILLA (BOX) CROUCH?
Any information about MARGARET or any BOX families in Illinois would
be appreciated. Thanks!
