Leah Conover Crawford Birth: Dec. 2, 1810 Death: Jun. 28, 1895 Mrs. Leah Crawford, widow of the late William Crawford, died on Friday at the house of William S Crawford, aged 84 years. She was stricken with an attack of paralysis on Sunday, June 16th. Previous to this she had been sick with appendicitis and seemed to be improving up to that time. The day after she was paralyzed, and while she lay in an unconscious condition, the house took fire from some unknown cause and burned to the ground. When the fire was discovered she was carried to the front lawn and later on to the house of Wm. S. Crawford, a neighbor and a distant relative, where she died without regaining consciousness. She celebrated her 84th birthday last December by holding a family reunion. At that time she was in excellent health. Crawford Hall, her home, which was destroyed by fire, was built about the year 1600. In 1700 a wing was added, after which nothing beyond ordinary repairs was made to it. It had been in the possession of the Crawford family for over a hundred years. Mrs. Crawford was a member of the Holmdel Reformed church. The funeral services were conducted on Monday afternoon by Rev. Garrett Wyckoff, pastor of that church, assisted by Rev. P. K. Hageman, who was a former pastor there. The interment was in the Holmdel cemetery. Two sons and two daughters survive her. The sons are Charles Crawford, who lived at home, and John B. Crawford, who owns a farm adjoining the homestead. The Daughters are Misses Jamesanna and Jennie Crawford, who lived with their mother.(Red Bank Register July 3, 1895)Family links: Parents:Cornelius R Conover (____ - 1817) <Mary Stoutenburg Conover (1786 - 1861)Spouse:William H Crawford (1809 - 1874) [S25] Conover, David Kipp 9068 Crystal Vista Lane, West Jordan, Utah 84088, Descendants of Wolphert Gerretse Kouwenhoven, www.conovergenealogy.com.
