The Coat-of-Arms (Crandall) (National Research Society, Washington, D.C.) Burk’s "General Armory" and "Encyclopedia of Heraldry" does not list any Armorial Coat for the Crandall or Crandall Family. Since Crandall and Crandell are modifications of the welsh name, CRAN, it is believed that those bearing the surnames Crandall and Crandell can lay claim to the Cran, Coat of Arms. Riestap, in his "Armorial General, describes the Cran family Coat of Arms as follows: ARMORIAL COAT: Per Fess; in top half or a crane argent; in bottom half argent the letter X sable. EXPLANTION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE SYMBOLS AND COLORINGS OF THE ABOVE ARMORAL COAT; OR yellow or gold, denotes generosity and elevation of mind. ARGENT, white or silver, signifies peace and sincerity. SABLE or black, denotes constancy and sometimes, but most rarely, grief. THE CRANE or STORK is the emblem of Filial duty, and is also the emblem of a grateful. THE FAMILY CREST: (Belonging to the above Armorial Coat). A crane issuant. (No motto is given to the Cran Coat.) Since the name Crandall is taken, from the words "Crane Dale, a low lying section near the Welsh border inhabited by Cranes, it is reasonable to assume the significance of the Cranes in the Coat of Arms. Col. A. Julian Crandall called on the writer in Florida and loaned him the Crandall Coat saying that he had investigated and had come to the conclusion that the coat was intended for the Crandall family and had several copies made for members of the family. | ARDUA VINCO: “I conquer difficulties.” | Honored Gentlemen, Yours bearing date Nov. 18, last past we received, wherein you were pleased to signify unto us that you have been often solicited to hear several complaints made against us by the inhabitants of Stoningtown, and also of other gentlemen, and that you have reason to grant them a time of hearing and did give us timely notice of, and notice to, appear. Unto the which we cannot omit but make you same return as to that of complaint made by the inhabitants of Stoningtown: we do profess that we are not sensible that we are in any measure guilty -which, If we were, we hope we should. have prevented their complaints by rendering satisfaction. But we are very sensible of great wrongs that we have sustained by them for several years. And. as to a time of hearing and giving timely notice, we, being by charter and, otherwise obligated to our other colony, could not offend but with the hazard of breaking our obligations. It, notwithstanding, we are much inclined to a peaceable and a final issue of those differences by a legal process In Law in the jurisdiction whereunto we do belong, and by whose authority we are here settled where we doubt not but equal justice will be rendered. As for your doubt to agree with those our neighbors of Stoningtown and. the other gentlemen, we hope that your colony and ours, will, in the first place, lovingly agree; and then we question not but there will be an agreement between us and. our neighbors of Stoningtown and the rest of the gentlemen.

INTRODUCTION ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sooner or later most people become curious to know who they really are and from whence they came. He who calls, seekers after such knowledge, crazy, is but revealing his own lackadaisical attitude to matters of far reaching importance. Dr. Henry Bond, in his historical family publication, contends that among all people, enlightened and otherwise, through all periods of history, the desire to trace a lineage end to perpetuate its remembrance is an instinct of human nature and an inate principal implanted for wise and honest purposes. Something like a quarter of a century ago I received a letter from one Howard S. Crandall of Westerly, R.I., asking for data relating to my father's immediate family. For many years, without satisfaction, I had entertained a growing desire to know something about my ancestors. At last I was to be rewarded. Correspondence convinced me that Howard had the desired facts. I made a trip to Westerly and there sat at the feet of a men -- perfectly sane -- who for thirty years had been spending his money and much of his time in searching records, on two continents, for ancestral data. He showed me his files and said; “I have here the equivalent of fifteen volumes of material". He also stated that he had traced the ancestral line back to the 4th century. Here was the making of a great book on Crandall genealogy. A few months later my newly found friend and cousin died of cancer. Most unfortunately his vast collection was willfully burned by a member of the family who stated that he feared the spread of cancer bacteria. Had medical advise been obtained all could have been saved. A veritable galaxy of other members of the far reaching clan have taken it upon themselves to "spend and be spent" in this bewitching field. To mention only a few of the scores of names that should appear here. Probably Elwin Gerry Davis of North Providence, R.I. should head the list of devotees to this task. Thomas Eugene Crandall of Santa Cruz, Cal. stricken early in life with tuberculosis, gathered much valuable data in England. Prof. Albert Rogers Crandall of Alfred, N.Y. and Milton, Wisc., gave forty years to gathering material's for an unpublished book. Bruce Verne Crandall of Three Lakes, Wisc., directed his ready pen to the cause. The list continues with Frederick A. Crandall of Watertown, N.Y., Arovestus. P.

Atwood, Hartland Four Corners, Vt., William. G. Crandall, Homer, N.Y., The business of putting the big job across fell upon the shoulders of John Cortland Crandall, of New Woodstock, N.Y. No one not even the compiler, himself knows how he has managed to find the time and strength, to say naught of funds, to engage this Herculean undertaking over a period of many years. Kinsfolk, whose numbers are legion, of this and future generations, as they peruse this book will be under lifelong obligations to John Cortland Crandall. Howard Crandall affirmed that more than five thousand descendants of Elder John Crandall had become ministers. Records of precinct, state and nation disclose the names of Crandalls who have gained places of note in education, science, invention, law, medicine, industry, business and various other fields. However, the rank and file have been humble, middle class folks. For the most part they have been known for their sturdiness of character, noble principals, good citizenship, and consistent religious devotion. Bruce Verne Crandall wrote a treatise in which he featured the claim that the one outstanding trait of the Crandall family was- “Independent thinking, oft times developing into obstinacy, tho’ accompanied by open-mindedness, conscientiousness, liberality and purposefulness of.” If all that has been written about Elder John Crandall is true than most of the hundreds of thousands, emanating from this progenitor, must naturally posses those characteristics which exemplify the best American life. To wit: Independence of thought and action, democracy of the first water and unadulterated religion. It is probable that the humble unassuming Elder John played a role comparable with, if not greater than, that played by Roger Williams, or any other man, in hewing out the original timbers for our, American constitional foundation. See Appendix II. The writer of this introduction realizes that much which could be written here will appear more properly under the appendices. He has therefore consigned various items of secondary importance to said pages. Many paragraphs, which lack of space compels us to omit, should be incorporated. This is cause for much regret. We rejoice with every reader of this book, that now, after many decades of years, the dream of a multitude has become reality. WILLIAM S. CRANDALL, D.D. THE COMPILER’S APOLOGY _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Long have I dreaded the time when I would be called upon, to put into words, some account of my own activities in connection with this gigantic undertaking, while I have kept a constant virgil for someone to show up who would do this for me, yet knowing full well that not a person exists who could relieve me of this task, resigned, I will endeavor in a brief and feeble manner to extricate myself. I am inviting you to take a walk with me down through the beautiful Green Mountains of Vermont to a busy little town, through which runs the Black River, hemmed in on all sides by mountains called Springfield- It was here that the writer conceived the thought of tackling the job of compiling the Crandall genealogy. Prompted by a letter from Elwin Gerry Davis, compiler of Crandall records, of North Providence, R.I. who had received the account of the birth of my second daughter in 1906. In this letter Mr. Davis said that if I would send him all of the records of my family as far back as possible, he would in turn send me my direct line connecting me, with the immigrant ancestor, Eld. John Crandall. Upon receiving this data I became more interested and started out to gather the records of my own line first. This was no easy task as my, grand father had a family of fifteen children and likewise his rather had a similar number. I started out by asking my father, the late Lester A. Crandall of Canton, N.Y. the name of his grand father to this he replied " I don’t know as I ever had one", but I said. certainly some of your large family must have mentioned his name, and added "would you know his name if you heard it"?. To this he replied I might, then I said was it ELIAS?, to this he an aped back. "yes sir, that was his name, Elias". It was here that he gave me some good advise when he remarked, "don’t bother your head with such non-sense and foolishness, for if you ever live long enough to see your work completed, all you will get is kicks and plenty of them" , I regret to say that I had to live to be an old man myself to realize how much more he know about genealogy than I did, although he did not even know the name of his own grand father. So you see I have been forewarned and now ready for my reward. I mailed out forty-eight letters, asking for family data to addresses in Chicago and vicinity. from these I received only one answer and one returned, This same condition has resulted for a good many years. If only one-quarter had answered my letters we could have nearly a complete record of the Crandalls. I expect when the book is finished and in circulation some of those who did not take the time to reply to my many requests, will be among the first to register complaints, to these I can only say its just too bad. To those who could have given assistance that I was sure about, I have write as many as five letters requesting their family records, but with no reply. I have exhausted every means at my command to arouse the interest of our kinsman and to this and I have no regrets. Along with these discouraging moments, I am not forgetful of the fine letters of encouragement from hundreds of our loyal relatives without which I would have given up the attempt long ago. I wish space would permit to reproduce some of these friendly letters of encouragement which inspired me to continue the task for without these we would have no genealogy of the Crandall family, As in all genealogies and for that matter many vital statistics, contain conflicting dates and records, gravestone and Bible records often disagree, so why should one expect this genealogy to be an exception to the general rule. The compiler has had only the best of intentions to bring forth and reproduce, what he has found to be as nearly correct as the information would warrant. If errors appear, and this is a certainty, PLEASE try to find, a reasonable excuse, considering the years he has spent untiringly at this gigantic task with only the thought in mind to perpetuate and preserve our family records to enable you to find what is recorded of your family. It is regrettable that the compiler, with the advise of Rev. William S. Crandall, turned the record over to Rev. Oscar Frank Stetson for copying and indexing, a job which he stated would consume about four months, it was understood that the system I had employed was not to be changed also the first few pages were to be submitted for my approval, this was not done and it was not until I had returned from Florida and made a trip to Pittsfield did I discover he had changed every single point in my system and not for the better at first I intended taking the records home and starting all over again, but already it had cost considerable and a lot of time lost, he insisted the work was going on better and making good headway so I decided to leave than. Another year passed, and I made another trip, this time to Berlin, N.Y. only to find the records were not one-quarter completed one of the main reasons was because he insisted in changing the system, leaving out the direct line, the generations and changing the dates to read Day, Month, year. In the process of changing the records as I had them many unnecessary errors and omissions were made, some whole families were omitted, this will be noted in the book where I have tried to include them and had to use fractions to assist in tracing. After my trip to Berlin, I was greatly disappointed with the progress being made and told Mr. Stetson that I would be down the 4th of Aug. and to have everything ready for me to take home. when I arrived I was told that Mr. Stetson had been taken to the hospital In Pittsfield, where I drove to see him. he arranged with a doctor to accompany me to the parsonage where I was given all of the records. Rev. Stetson passed away the following week. Had the records been typed exactly as I had compiled the master-copy about two years and innumerable mistakes could have been saved. All pages bearing the letter "c" in the lower right hand corner were typed by the compiler himself. John C. Crandall. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE BRIDGE BUILDER An old man, traveling a lone highway, Came at the evening cold and gray To a chasm deep and wide. The old man crossed in the twilight dim, For the sullen stream held no fears for him; But he turned when he reached the other side, And builded a bridge to span the tide. “Old Man”; Cried a follow pilgrim near You are wasting your strength with building here; Your journey will end with the ending day, And you never again will pass this way. You have crossed the chasm deep and wide, Why build you a bridge at eventide? And the builder raised his old gray head: "Good friend, on the path I have come," he said, There followeth after me today A youth whose feet will pass this way; This stream, which has been as naught to me, To that fair-haired boy may a pitfall be; He, too, must cross in the twilight dim. Good Friend, I am building this bridge for him. (Author unknown.) "Of all the affections of man, those which connect him with Ancestry are among the most natural and generous. They enlarge the sphere of his interests, multiply his motives to virtue and give Intensity to his sense of duty to generations to come, by the perception of obligations to those which are past." ---- Quincy. He only deserves to be remembered by posterity, Who treasures up and preserves the history of his ancestors.

MEINARD A. SCHUR State Librarian 4866 Kensington Drive, San Diego 4 January 28, 1946. Dear Mr. Crandall: I felt that I had to express to you; not only for myself; but for all the Crandalls both present and past, the deep appreciation and debt of gratitude that we all owe you for the wonderful work that you are doing. I can realize in a small way, the endless hours of work and research, not to mention the money, that has been expended by you over these many years, in compiling the Crandall Family history. One has to have a little experience in research to realize the labor that is involved and the many branches that have to be traced and proved. You have Indeed dedicated your like to this work. I feel that it has been a labor of love with you and when your book is completed you have certainly left for all future Crandalls, something that could never be bought-their heritage. You will have the gratitude of the generations to come, and may it in a small way compensate you for all that you have given. Most sincerely and gratefully, Virginia Baines Schur. APPENDICES Appendix I. Crandall Etymology. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Crandall name seems to have a number of meanings, the first and most probable is said to come from Crane Dale, meaning a lake or swampy section where Cranes congregate, hence the Cranes on the coat-of-arms (the compiler's version). It is said that at one time the name was spelled Crann Dell, which meant Iron Dell. It is further claimed that the meaning is as follows: Crans, equals woods, Dal, equals vale or dale. The name has several spellings to wit: Crandel, Crandal, Crandall, Crandel, Crandell, Crandle and Crandol, Thomas Eugene Crandall, son of Fred Warren, a good authority on sources, of Santa Cruz, Calif. states, quote; ”all present day bearers of the surname Crandall in its uncorrupted form, or variants, formed with the prefix Cran, but terminating Dall, Dle or Dal, are believed to be descendants of Elder John Crandall, the Rhode Island founder the only English born Crandall known to have perpetuated his name and blood to this day." NOTE: The compiler differs widely from the above statement of Thomas Eugene Crandall, first that he was born Welch instead of English. second the name Oran according to Burke's "General Armory" and "Encyclopedia of Heraldry" is distinctly a Welsh name and that Crandall Is a modification of the name Cran. Our authority further adds that, "The Crandall family is distinctly Anglo-Saxon in origin and name. The earliest known bearers of the name lived in a seacoast section of Monmouthshire, England, near the north shore of the English Channel, close to the Welsh border". Because of the border location of Monmouthshire and because of certain administrative contacts, it was frequently included with Wales. In as much as there were more Welsh than English in the Country, it came to be understood that the Crandall family was Welsh. Thomas Eugene in his exhaustive research and writings explores the Welsh origin theory and concludes his thesis with the succeeding reference: "Mr. Ernest Weekley, a celebrated English Etymologist, in a letter to the author regarding the disputed origin and history of the surname Crandall, stated: "I, agree with you that the Welsh etymology is unlikely. It was probably suggested by the proximity of Chepstaw--the vicinity where Crandalls are known to have lived --in Wales. " NOTE: Our good cousin Thomas Eugene(now deceased) seems to have favored the theory that the Crandalls were English and to this end has offered some weak arguments, however according to his "Celebrated English etymologist" Mr. Weekly, in his last statement, That " It was probably suggested by the proximity of Chipstow the vicinity where Crandalls are known to have lived in Wales" to me is positive proof that the Crandalls were Welchmen and not Englishmen. The compiler. Appendix II. The Rhode Island Charter. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ From the writings Of Bruce Verne Crandall of Three Lakes, Wisc., who was exceptionally well, versed in Baptist history, we have taken the following, 'I am quoting from a lecture by Rev. Walter E. Tanner, D.D., pastor of a Baptist Church in Springfield, Mo. Dr. Tanner's lecture was on Baptist History and any reference which he made to John Crandall was only accidental to his main theme. As he gave the sources of his information even down to volumes and page numbers, I regard what he gives as undoubted accuracy. He said, that, "John Clarke, John Crandall, Obediah Holmes and Roger Williams went to England in the year 1663, and obtained from King Charles the second, a charter, which secured the Colony of Rhode Island as a free State, where there was a guarantee, forever, from the King and all his successors, that all the inhabitants of Rhode Island Colony should be given political and Religious Freedom, no matter what country they came from. NOTE: This original charter can be found in the Rhode Island Historical Library. This data also can be verified by and through Callender's History of Rhode Island, and from Colonial Records, found at Newport. The charter was signed July 8, 1663. "The colonies of Rhode Island and Pennsylvania -- The one founded by the Baptists and the other by the Quakers -- were the only two colonies that guaranteed absolute liberty. And It was the Constitution of the Colonies, especially the one in Rhode Island. and its democratic manner of handling public affairs, that is declared by Thomas Jefferson to be the leven of Liberty and Democracy of the American Constitution.(see Memoirs of Thomas Jefferson)." "It is interesting on this account, that with the growth of Democracy came the struggle for Liberty and Independence In the Revolutionary War, and that the Colony of Rhode Island and the men who started it, namely: Obediah Holmes, John Clark, John Crandall and Roger Williams should really be looked upon as the first pioneers of Religious and Political Freedom in America". Appendix III. WESTERLY (PAWCATUCK VILLAGE). _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ It would be difficult to round out the Crandall story Into completion without a specific reference to the Town of Westerly. Great will be the thrill and satisfaction coming to a Crandall offspring who may be privileged to visit I Westerly and vicinity. In addition to spending plenty of time in this charming spot, contacting its churches, I its unusual library, meeting distant cousins and imbibing the atmosphere of this historic New England village, one should go out to the old Homestead, see the ancient house, go to the site of the original orchard and stand near the twenty - seven pioneer graves with their primitive stone markers, Westerly belongs to us. In a very readable and informative Rhode Island Tercentenary volume, bearing the caption, "The Town That Saved a State - Westerly", we find that Mary A. Best, the author, features John Crandall as playing no small part in those decisive days. Westerly was the frontier town of the colony. With Massachusetts and Connecticut laying claim to the land as their own, and repeatedly doing their utmost to possess the same, The course of history was to be directly determined by the attitude of a few brave, God-Fearing zealots of the settlement. We quote Miss Best: "In 1669 when Westerly was incorporated thirty families were scattered over the ten by twenty mile tract." "Relying on the charter (see appendix II) the settlers hoped to live among the Red Men In peace. They soon found they had a stiff fight ahead, with white neighbors to keep the land they had bought and cleared. Reverend John Crandall and Tobias Saunders were appointed Conservators of His Majesty’s Peace, a job that was no sinecure. Hardly had the settlers taken shelter In their dugouts and cabins whom the long fight to oust them began. Saunders and Crandall found it necessary to use clubs to adjust some differences of opinion with the neighbors across the river." As other references in our Introduction bear evidence, these men and their Westerly compatriots were again and again subjected to suffering, abuse, imprisonment and loss, as they unflinchingly lived, to defend and preserve their little colony, regardless of the enormity of the would - be invaders. John Clark and Roger Williams, in pleading their cause before King Charles, said, "They have it in their hearts, if they may be permitted to hold forth a lively experiment, that a flourishing colony may stand, yea best may be maintained and that among English spirits, with a full liberty in religious concernments". Not until 1728 was the boundary question settled by an agreement signed at Westerly the colony got what she had claimed from the beginning; that for which her unyielding man and women had prayed and contended even unto blood. Yes, Westerly, made up of God - fearing, liberty - loving folks - many of whom were our kinsmen - saved a colony, yes a state, and as Bruce V. Crandall puts it, "A Nation". Appendix IV. HISTORY MAKING ORGANIZATIONS. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The following excerpts were taken from an article appearing in a Now York City paper in the early nineties: The Crandall Genealogical Association, organized last night at the Astor House, purpose to engage a genealogical expert, who will trace back their common ancestry as far as Colonial times, at least. " I am the man who invented the typewriter girl." Proudly said Lucien Stephen Crandall in Parlor H. Astor House, last night. ‘You have a great deal to answer for’, chorused John Albert Crandall, Ernest Lindell Crandall, Harris Melvin Crandall, Henry Sargent Crandall, Chauncey W. Crandall, John Courtland Crandall, Jesse Armour Crandall, Bradford Francis Crandall, Edwin Joel Crandall, William Franklin Crandall, Henry Vaughn Crandall, Henry Lewis Crandall, Frederick H. Way and Rev. Charles E. Freemen, the last two married Crandall girls. “The world has a great deal to thank me for” retorted Lucien Stephen Crandall. I Invented the typewriter machine and in 1874, I first employed a young woman to write on my typewriter. If when I die each typewriter girl contributes a penny I'll have a monument as tall as the Statue of Liberty. An illustrious Crandall, Joseph, founded Utica, N.Y. in 1704. Loving mothers and Brooklyn fathers should keep green the memory of Benjamin P. Crandall, first of the family in New York City. He invented the baby carriage. John Courtland Crandall of 495 Cortland Ave., New York, organized the idea of the Genealogical Association. Lucien Stephen Crandall, the president, not only invented the blessed and beautiful typewriter girl but has Eighty-three other inventions to his credit." The John Crandall Society was organized at Venice, Florida, March 25, 1939. The organization was first suggested by Bruce V. Crandall to John C. Crandall during the summer of 1938. These two members or the Crandall clan agreed to meet at Venice, Fla. at the time of the convention of the descendants or First Families of America, then being organized by Bruce V. Crandall. At the organization meeting were present. A. Julian Crandall, Ashaway, R.I., Mr. and Mrs. Orra S. Rogers, Plainfield, N.S., John C. Crandall, New Woodstock, N.Y., Mary Elysabeth Crandall, Three Lakes, Wise., and Bruce Verne Crandall, Three Lakes, Wisc. Bruce V. called the meeting to order and explained his thought that the Crandall family should have an organization as the best means of getting together genealogical and historical data and making permanent and safe records of them. He then suggested that John C. Crandall be made president of the organization and that Mary Elysabeth Crandall be made its sectary and that the organization be given the name of "The John Crandall Society" in honor of the pioneer ancestor of all the Crandalls in America. All present were in entire agreement. NOTE: The foregoing data of the 1939 organization was furnished by Mary Elysabeth Crandall. This organization, together with its corresponding members has played an important part in bringing about the publishing of the Crandall Recital. Appendix V. SAMUEL HUBBARD. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dr. William Franklin Langworthy in his splendidly compiled Langworthy Genealogy, gives nearly four pages in featuring Samuel Hubbard. It seems proper that a few lines should appear here relative to this man and his ancestral connection with many of the Crandalls especially descendants of Rev. Joseph and Deborah (Burdick) Crandall. Samuel was born in Mendolsham, Suffolk, Eng. in 1610. He was the son of James Hubbard who married Naomi Cocke of Ipswich. According to Foxes 'Book of Martyrs' Vol. 3, page 704 - which record Samuel referred to as fact Thomas Hubbard father of James (listed as Thomas Higbee) was burned at the stake during the reign of queen (Bloody) Mary in 1555. Samuel Hubbard arrived at Salem in October 1633, he located at Watertown. In 1635 he was among the sixty daring colonists, who, braving the terrible winter, marched through the wilderness to be numbered among the first settlers of Connecticut. Tase (Tacy) Cooper, born in 1608 in England, of noble parentage, was in the party, she and Samuel were married during the winter of 1636. They later moved to Springfield Mass. where three daughters, Ruth, Rachel and Berthia were born. Ruth the first white child to be born In Springfield married Robert Burdick, by which union she became the mother of all the Burdicks. Rachel married Andrew Langworthy and thereby became the mother of all the American Langworthys. Deborah Burdick, Dau. of Robert and Ruth, married Rey. Joseph Crandall. son of Elder John. To this marriage was born Joseph who married his second cousin Ann Langworthy, Dau. of Andrew and Rachel Langworthy. According to Dr. Langworthy, Samuel Hubbard was a very Important man, especially in the religious history of Rhode Island. He and six others, one his wife, and one his Dau. Rachel Langworthy, founded the Seventh Day Baptist Church, Dec. 23, 2671 Appendix VI. CRANDALL LINE BACK TO ADAM AND EVE. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Only the most daring would undertake such a compilation. Again, as in appendix II, we turn to the writings of Bruce Verne Crandall for the following expose of Adamic-Crandall generations. He in turn gave credit to Mrs. Ina O. Perrin of Velva, S.D. and later of 619 SO. Central Ave., Lodi, Calif. and a cousin of hers--both Crandalls--each of whom spent many years in collecting the data. It was a tradition in Mrs. Perrin's home that she was descended from Princess Elizabeth. To quote Bruce: “There seems to be no reason to doubt the correctness of the line back of Elizabeth Drake, the mother of Elder John Crandall for the Drake family history is well known". He further stated, "The King lines are well known and part of this record has a historical accuracy". Some of his listings are taken from Know your Ancestors by Mrs. Spiller Kelley. He quotas Mrs. Kelley thus: "Matthew in his first chapter gives the line back 4,000 years, could not their descendants keep theirs up to the present day… Further, "Rulers of Monarchies must keep their lines of descent in order to prove their Royalty and right to rule. The Irish and the Walsh depended upon their wisest man to keep their records. Adam(B.C.4004). He died 3074 Gen.5:5. Compiler's Note: “I regret that after the death in August 1948 of Rev. Oscar Frank Stetson, to whom I had sent the Adam and Eve line to be Included in the book, fourteen pages and 143 generations back from Eld. John Crandall, were never recovered. However, I included here the line back to King Malcom II (1005 - 1034) and if interested to trace back to Adam one can find the connection in the pamphlet 'The Book of Adam' by Harold King Bowen, 428 Vista Ave., Pasadena 8, Calif.” 1.

John because he left the English church and became a Baptist. The question is-was there a air John Crandall in Shropshire, England about 1600-1650 it seems possible that there should be records that could be located. In "Newmans History of the Baptists page Ill" states that Dr. John Clark was born in Suffolk Co. and he and his two brothers, Thomas and Joseph were closely associated with Elder John Crandall In the church of the R.I. Baptists it is claimed that Elder John Crandall came over from Shropshire County with Joseph Clark. It has also been said that Eld. John was a Scotchman. FIRST GENERATION ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1. JOHN CRANDALL, Colonial pioneer, First Baptist Elder, Deputy Commissioner, and statesman of Newport and Westerly, Rhode Island, the head of the Crandall family in America, was born in Monmouthshire, England, on the line between England and Wales in 1612. His mother is supposed to have been a Scotch lady. He came to Boston within a very few years after the landing of the Pilgrims, in 1634. Several writers have ascertained that he was associated with the Congregational Church at Salem as 1635 and that "he was certainly living in Providence as early as 1637" and while there are many reasons for believing these statements correct and that John Crandall was a close associate of Roger Williams was one of the founders of Providence, unfortunately it seems impossible certainly to confirm them. Many of the original Providence records were early destroyed. The first valid documentary account of John Crandall in New England shows him to have been actively identified with the Baptist Church in Newport, July 21, 1651. His name next is found, with that of Matthew West in the Freemen's list of Newport, 1655. John Crandall was the first Baptist Elder at Westerly, "Elder Crandall was well calculated both by talent and sufferings to lead his people in their devotions. He took an active part In the border difficulties between Massachusetts and Connecticut and subsequently between Connecticut and Rhode Island, concerning the lines between the states." "With other founders of Westerly Mr. Crandall settled on the Misquamicutt land before 1665. He was commissioner for a number of years, served as deputy from both Newport and Westerly, and in other capacities which evidence that he was a man of importance. Through the seven sons of Elder Crandall the name became a common one and the family numerous in Rhode Island." (From "Representative men and old families of Rhode Island”.) Through the marriage of Elder John Crandall's sons and daughters, the family became allied with other important pioneer families who were prominent in the early history of Rhode Island, and New England. Among these were the Gorton, Babcock, Burdick, Hubbard, and Witter families. The name or origin of his first wife is not known, but it is recorded that she died in 1670 and was buried August 2 of that year in Westerly. From examination of the birth and marriage records of their children, and the dates at which sons were listed as freemen, it may be inferred that John Crandall was first married about the year 1649. He married, second, Hannah Gaylord. Elder John Crandall died before November 29, 1676 at Newport where he was sojourning on account of the Indian War (King Philip's War). The "Journal of American History" gives the following sketch of the life of Elder John Crandall, which is substantially correct with the probable exception of the account of his activities prior to 1651. As early as 1635 Rev. John Crandall, who is believed to have been of Welsh ancestry, was living in Salem where, as elsewhere in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, there was at this time much opposition to all dissenters from the authorized tenets of the Puritans. John Crandall was the minister of the Salem church, but he adopted the opinions of the Baptists, which were very obnoxious to the Congregationalists, and in the autumn of 1635 he was dismissed as pastor. As did so many others of the early Baptists of New England he determined to settle in the Narragansett country. The Indians proved friendly and he obtained from them a grant of land. He has been called one of the founders of Providence. He was certainly living in Providence as early as 1637. In 1669 he appears in "a list of the Free Inhabitants of the Town of Westerle" May the 18, (John Crandall's name headed the list). Directly after this he, with Tobias Saunders, was authorized by the colony to summon juries and hold corts, they being appointed "Conservators or His Majesty's Peace." John Crandall was one of the original purchasers from Chief Sosoa of Narragansett of the Misquamicutt tribe, of the land comprising Westerly, from which Hopkinton was later formed. The townships of Westerly, Hopkinton, Charleston and Richmond, as they now are, were a tract called by the Indians Misquamicutt and on August 27, 1661 John Crandall was one of the nine signers of a petition to the Court of Commissioners for the Colony of Providence Plantations, in session at Portsmouth, for the purchase of that part of the tract which became Westerly. His house was near Burdens Pond and a part of it now stands, as one room in the homestead occupied by lineal descendants, of the ninth and tenth generations. Across from the house in the old orchard field is the original cemetery, in which twenty seven bodies are buried. There are three rows of graves containing nine bodies each. These rows of graves run parallel with a swamp near by. Elder John is buried in the row nearest the swamp in the end grave to the left as one stands facing the swamp. Next to his grave is that of his son John. Each of the twenty seven graves is indicated by a field stone some 14 inches in width, appearing four to eight inches above the ground set at the head while a smaller stone marks the foot of the grave. There is no inscription on any of the stones. On the 6th day of October 1932 A. Julian Crandall of Ashaway, Rhode Island and Rev. Wm. S. Crandall of Binghamton, New York, standing in the little historical burying ground, agreed that a suitable marker should be placed thereupon. They further concluded that a large native field granite boulder with a bronze plaque properly lettered, embedded in the same would be most suitable. The two third cousins resolved that they would sponsor the project. He was the first Baptist Elder at Westerly and held a number of public offices at various times. In 1658, 1659, 1662, 1663 he was a Commissioner, and was a Deputy to the General Court in 1667, 1670 and 1671, representing Westerly during the two latter terms. He had lived prior to his settlement at Westerly, at Newport. There was much dispute between the colonies of Massachusetts and Connecticut as to their jurisdictions, and especially as to jurisdiction over grants in Rhode Island, which however, had been confirmed by a royal charter to their purchasers. A claim was made in 1662 by Connecticut of land reaching beyond Misquamicutt to Narragansett Bay. On October 17, 1667 a letter was sent by the Connecticut authorities, to those of Rhode Island complaining that John Crandall had taken possession of about a square mile of land, which he had laid out to his sort, on the west side of the Pawcatuck River. On May 14, 1669 he and Joseph Torrey were appointed commissioners for the purpose of conferring with the Connecticut authorities concerning these land disputes. Certain individuals lent thirty five shillings to the Colony of Rhode Island in order to pay the expenses of Mr. Crandall to Connecticut. A few months later, on November 18, the governor and assistants of Connecticut sent a letter complaining that John Crandall and some others had appropriated a large tract of land in the township of Stonington, Connecticut. A reply to this complaint was sent by the Town of Westerly on March 11, 1669, signed by John Crandall and Tobias Saunders, in which all illegal seizure of land or other offense against the Colony of Connecticut was denied, and a counter charge was made; "but we are very sensible of great wrongs that we have sustained by them for many years." In 1671 the dispute grew so serious that Mr. Crandall, with others, were actually carried off by the Connecticut authorities and was imprisoned at Hartford. On May 2, of that year the Rhode Island assembly advised him not to yield to Connecticut's claims and assured him of the Colony's support and that his financial losses would be borne by the Colony. The Reverend John Crandall was twice married. The name of his first wife is unknown, but she died in 1670 and was buried on August 2 of that year. He married, second, Hannah Gaylord. The subjoining summary recorded events in the later life of John Crandall "of Newport and Westerly, Rhode Island" is from Austin's Authoritative Volumes "Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island," and "One Hundred and Sixty Allied Families of Rhode Island." John Crandall was early associated with the Baptists, at Newport, subsequently becoming the first Elder of that denomination at Westerly. 1651, July 21. He, with John Clarke and Obediah Holmes, "being the representatives of the Church of Newport, upon the request of William Witter, of Lynn, arrived there, he being a brother in the Church, who by reason of his advanced age, could not undertake so great a journey as to visit the church. William Witter lived about two miles out of Lynn and the next day being Sunday, they spent in religious services at his house, and were there apprehended by two constables at the instance of the Massachusetts authorities, while Mr. Clarke was preaching, and the next morning they were sent to prison in Boston. For the dire offense of holding this little meeting, and on other frivolous pretexts Obediah Holmes was fined, imprisoned and whipped. 1651, July 31. He was sentenced to pay a fine of L5 or be publically whipped. He was released from prison upon his promise of appearing at next court. 1658; 59; 62; 63 Commissioner. 1661, August 27, he and eight others signed a letter of the Court of Commissioners of Rhode Island, concerning a tract of land at Westerly, that they and others desired approbation and assistance of Rhode Island in settling upon. 1661, September 9. He had half a share at Westerly assigned him. 1667, Deputy. 1667, October 17, Westerly. He was complained of in a letter from Connecticut to Rhode Island authorities, for having come on west side of Pawcatuck River and laid out about a mile square of land to his son. 1669, May 14. He and Joseph Torrey were appointed Commissioners to treat with Connecticut relative to jurisdiction of lands. The sum of 35 shillings was lent to the Colony of Rhode Island by individuals for John Crandall's voyage to Connecticut. 1669, May 18. His name was on the List of Inhabitants. (Westerly) 1669, November 18. - A letter was sent him by Governor and Assistants, of Connecticut, complaining that he and others had appropriated a great parcel of Stonington township, and seeking for satisfaction. 1669, March 11. He and Tobias Saunders answered on behalf of Westerly denying any guilt in matter complained of, "but we are very sensible of great wrongs we have sustained by them several years." The letter closes: "As for your advice to agree with those, our neighbors of Stonington and the other gentlemen we hope that your colony and ours, will in the first place lovingly agree, and then we question not but that there will be an agreement between us and our neighbors of Stonington, and the rest of the gentlemen." 1670, June 19. He as Conservator of the Peace of Westerly, wrote a letter a little prior to this date, to the Governor of Rhode Island, informing him "of an entrance made into our jurisdiction by some of Connecticut, and of their carrying away some inhabitants prisoners." 1670, August 2. His first wife was buried. 1670, October 3. He deeded eldest son, John of Newport, "for love &c., all my good, chattels, debts, household utensils, and all other personal estate, movable or immovable quick or dead - putting him in quiet and peaceable possession by payment of is in silver, by his son." 1670, 1671. Deputy from Westerly. 1671, January 30. Bills were allowed by Assembly, for hire of a boat to go to Narragansett with Mr. John Crandall Sr. in the year 1670 and for hire of Sarah Reape's horse for use of Mr. John Crandall to go to Hartford. 1671, May 2. He, having been "as is asserted" apprehended and now is in durance, by the Colony of Connecticut and having desired the advice of the Governor &c. of Rhode Island whether to give bond or abide imprisonment, the Colony will bear his charges and endeavor to justify his actings therein. 1671, may 6. He was allowed 20 shillings, to bear his charge to Connecticut. 1675, January 23. In a letter from Ruth Burdick, to her father Samuel Hubbard, of Newport, she says, "Brother Crandall hath the ague and fever still, and have been but little amongst us this winter, Sister Crandall is brought to bed with a son, and is in a hopeful way." (Ruth Burdick's daughter Deborah (Samuel Hubbard's granddaughter) later married Elder John Crandall is son (by his first wife) Joseph. He died in Newport, having moved there on account of the Indian War. 1676, November 29. Under this date Samuel Hubbard, writes from Newport to Mr. Edward Stennitt in London, and after speaking of the devastation caused by King Philip's War, he recounts the recent deaths in the First Baptist Church: He says: "of the old church, First Mr. Joseph Torrey, then my dear brother John Crandall, then Mr. John Clarke, then William Weeden, a deacon, then John Salmon; a sad stroke in very deed, young men and maids to this day I never knew or heard the like in New England." Samuel Hubbard also wrote a few years later; “my dear brother John Crandall of Squamicut, is dead and his first wife a Sabbath keeper, the first that died in that blessed faith in New England." Home of John C. Crandall His second wife was Hannah Gaylord, born 30 Jan. 1647, and probably was daughter of William and Ann (Porter) Gaylord, of Windsor, Connecticut. The said Hannah married a Crandall as is shown by the settlement of her brother Hezekiah Gaylord's estate in 1677. Elder John Crandall died at Newport November 29, 1676, From the compiler the following data of Elder John has been furnished: That he was born probably Shropshire, England near the Welch border. The western portion of this county was formerly a part of Wales and later annexed to England. Hence the reason why some authorities have made the assertion that Elder John Crandall was a Welchman. One good authority states that he died 29 Nov. 1676 at the age of 67 yrs. which would indicate that he was born in 1609 and judging from the known ages of some of his associates, this would seem probable. His first wife by whom he had 7 children has not been positively identified but record shown that she died 1 Aug. 1670. (Mildred Small of Etna, Pa. states she found in the records in Washington, D.C. that the first wife of Elder John was Mary Opp who died 20 Aug. 1669) Elder John married second, Hannah Gaylord, b. 30 Jan. 1647; d. 3 Aug. 1678. After the death of Eld. John his widow married, second, John Cottrell, Jr. Hannah Gaylord was the dau. of William (William, John Nicholas) and Ann (Porter) Gaylord. Children of Eld.

SECOND GENERATION. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. JOHN CRANDALL, of Eld. John, b.. abt. 1649 in, Newport, R.I.; d. 1704; m. 18 June, 1672 in Warwick, R.I. by John Green, J.P., Elizabeth Gorton, dau. of Samuel and Mary (Maplet) Gorton. (one record gives her as Elizabeth (Burton) Gorton). (Samuel Gorton b. 1592; d. 1677; was in Boston 1836; Plymouth 1638; settled in Warwick, R.I. 1641). John called himself the son and heir of John Crandall of Newport, deceased. He confirmed to his "beloved brothers Jeremiah and Eber, now resident of Newport, and in tuition of their mother, Hannah Crandall, a certain house formerly the Mansion House of my father John Crandall together with 200 acres thereto belonging, lying and being in westerly." 12 Dec. 1682 he sold to George Lawton, Jr. of Freeman's Lands, New Plymouth, certain land in Narragansett for 40s. His will was dated 25 Jan. 1704, proved 14 Aug. 1704, made wife Elizabeth exrx; named friend Job Babcock, brother Peter, and son-in-law Stephen Wilcox overseers; gave to son John 5s he "having had already"; son Peter, westermost part of the farm I now dwell on; son Samuel rest of the land and housing; dau. Elizabeth Wilcox 5s; dau. Mary Phillips 5a; wife Elizabeth all movables and the whole use of all lands till sons Peter and Samuel were of age. Children: 11. John, b. abt. 1675 12. Elizabeth. 13. Mary 14. Peter, (not of age in 1704). 15. Samuel, (not of age in 1704), Res. Newport and Kingstown, R.I. 3. JAMES CRANDALL, of Eld. John, 1651 probably in Newport, R.I.; took oath of allegiance in Westerly 17 Sept. 1679; Freeman in Westerly 1681. (Howard Stillman Crandall of Westerly spent many years compiling the Crandall records. He worked especially on the line of James and the following is taken from his letter to Prof. Albert Rogers Crandall) James became dissatisfied with the settlement of his father's estate (leaving all to the eldest son which was the old English custom); left home when be became 21, going down the Pawcatuck River which runs into the ocean near the end of Fisher's Island and made his home almost opposite Watch Hill an Long Island where he married a girl whose sister had married a man by the name of Raynor who lived in Suffolk Co. on the seat end of Long Island. Because of his wife's religion, which was not of the Seventh Day Baptist faith, James was disowned by the rest or the family. James had quite a large family. His eldest son Samuel Nelson desiring a better education went to Manhattan. His father and the rest of his family removed to Cape May Co., N.J. where the exodus of whalers on Long Island had found new fields to explore. After receiving his education Samuel went to Duchess Co., N.Y. and probably had a large family. Soon after, his two older brothers followed him. Samuel had sons Eber, Samuel and James and probably others as there are records or many Crandalls in this locality and Schaghticoks, Rensselaer Co., N.Y. and Cold Springs, Putnam Co., N.Y. which seems to point to the fact that they are the descendants of James. Being dissatisfied in Duchess Co. they after a time migrated to Rochester, N.Y. thence to Canada and finally some of them were in Ann Arbor, Michigan where we have Palmer Crandall and later Tanner Crandall. Many of these Canada Crandalls corresponded with Howard to establish their line with James. Also in the history of Tomkins and Tioga Counties, N.Y. is is an account of the line of a Henry Crandall son of Eber and Dinah (Vaughn), b. 22 Sept. 1795 in Schaghticoks, Rensselaer Co., N.Y.; d. 9 Mar. 1882 in Millport, N.Y.; m. 19 Oct. 1816 in Smithville, N.Y.; Eliza, dau. of Charles Hill of Madison Co., N.Y. Eber Crandall was a native of Cold Spring, Duchess Co., N.Y. having been born there in 1755. His father having lived and died there. His father James was or English ancestry settling on Long Island before the dawn of the 17th century. Eber moved to Argyle, Washington Co., N.Y. when Henry was an infant and after other moves he finally came to Tomkins Co. where he died. The history of Tomkins Co. establishes without doubt another line from James, son of Eld. John. While some positive connections are missing from dates and locations it is safe to assume that they are in the line of James and they will be found in a later section of the genealogy.

PETER CRANDALL, of Westerly and Ashaway, R.I. son of Eld. John., was b. abt. 1655 in Westerly and died 1734. He married Mary Babcock, dau. of James Jr. and Jane ( -- ) Babcock. The records of this family are not clear. The data taken from Arnold's Vit. Records of R.I. contain a mistake, but just what it is and where it is seems impossible to determine at this date. From the records it would appear that Anna, who first married James Babcock, Jr. later married a Brown; that as the wife of James Babcock, she was the mother of Mary who married Peter Crandall and that as the wife of Mr. Brown, she was the mother of George Brown who married Charity, the dau. of Peter and Mary (Babcock) Crandall. Howard Crandall tried during his lifetime to straighten out the tangle with the result that he wrote: By the records Mary Babcock and George Brown, were half brother and sister; that Charity Crandall was the wife and also the niece of George Brown; that Peter Crandall was brother-in-law to his son-in-law George Brown; that Jane Brown was grandmother and mother-in-law or Charity (Crandall) Brown; that Jane Brown was, mother-in-law of Peter Crandall, which would make Mary Babcock, wife of Peter Crandall, his sister-in-law. This would also make Charity marrying her uncle, George Brown. Mr. Crandall finally gave up the problem and no one since his time has been able to solve it. It would appear that George Brown and Charity (Crandall) Brown had the following children: George. Peter. John. Elizabeth. Sarah. Ruth. William, who was left by will all his father's Cooper's tools. Peter Crandall took the oath of allegiance in Westerly 17 May 1679; was a Freeman in 1681; deputy from 1699-1704; Justice of Peace and Lieut. of Militia and was an important man of his time.

John, b. abt. 1661 in Westerly, R.I.; d. 12 Sept. 1737; m. abt 1681, Deborah Hubbard Burdick, dau. of Robert and Ruth (Hubbard) Burdick, b. 11 Jan. 1640. Ruth Hubbard was dau. of Samuel, and Tacy Cooper Hubbard. Tacy (Tasy,Tase) Cooper came to Dorchester, Mass. 9 June 1634 from England and was married to Samuel Hubbard when she was 28 yrs. old. (Hist. of Windsor, Conn. from the Literary Diary of Ezra Stiles. Vol. 3 p. 28). Samuel Hubbard came to Salem, Mass. in 1633 and married Tacy Cooper 4 Jan. 1636 at Windsor, Conn. by Mr. Ludlow. They were both in the party that marched through the wilderness from Watertown, Mass. during the terrible winter of 1635 to become the founders of Conn. They were persecuted in Mass. for expressing their Baptist views. Samuel Hubbard finally in 1648 found refuge in R.I. where he was associated with Eld. John Crandall and others in founding the colony of R.I. which stands above all others for Its democratic principles. Rev. Joseph Crandall was an ordained minister of the Seventh Day Baptist Church in Newport, R.I. 8 May 1715. Children of Rev. Joseph and Deborah.

THIRD GENERATION. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 11. JOHN CRANDALL, of John and Elizabeth (Gorton) Crandall, b. abt. 1673 probably In Kingstown, R.I. There is nothing more in any R.I. records about this John. John, his father, was a blacksmith. We do find records of a John who was a blacksmith and settled in Cape May Co., N.J. We have records to prove that on 25 Mar. 1707 he recorded his earmark and that his son John recorded his earmark 17 May 1725 in the same county. We also find a John Jr. who was recorded as having 50 acres of land and a house hold in 1774. In 1768 this John was listed with 6 cattle and horses and 7 sheep. (Gen. Mag. of N.J. Vol. 14.) We have a John whom we assume was of the 7th generation from Eld. John b. in. N.J. 1768; d. 20 Oct. 1838; m. Elizabeth ---. He came from N.J. to Brooklyn, Pa. where he died. To substantiate the assumption that this is a line from John, son of John and Elizabeth (Gorton) the compiler of these records in 1940 stopped overnight at Troy, Pa. and talked with a Miss Sarah Crandle who belongs to the D.A.R. and who said it was a family tradition that he line was Eld. John, John, John. She did not give the 4th, 5th and 6th ancestral lines but named John of the 7th generation, Merrick of the 8th and Andrew of the 9th who was her father. She wan born 5 Aug. 1885 and resided in Troy, Pa. The N.J. Archives Vol. 32 records a John Crandall, a blacksmith of Cape May Co., N.J. whose will was dated 14 Apr. 1730.

SAMUEL CRANDALL, of South Kingstown, R.I., son of Samuel and Mary ( --- ) Crandall, b. I Feb. 1706 in North Kingstown, R.I.; m. Sarah Note: Edwin G. Davis said that he began the study of this family when he was 18 yrs. old and had not solved his problems at the time of his death when he was over 80 yrs. old. Prof. Albert Rogers Crandall did not solve the problem. Bruce V. Crandall of Three Lakes, Wisc. whose father, the late Rev. Lathan Augustus Crandall thought he had solved the problem and he gave the records for the Central N.Y. Gen. His son later found that they were incorrect and this family is in question.

Wilson Crandall mentioned in his will Mettiemelina Bartlett and said she was his niece. 138. GEORGE CRANDALL, son of Samuel and Mary Crandall, b. 29 May 1739 (1741), m. 20 Sept. 1761 Le In South Kingstown, R.I. by John Webster. J.P., Tacy Tanner, dau. of John and Susannah (West) Tanner; b. 22 July 1742 in Charlestown, R.I. (Davis says Richmond. R.I.). John Tanner. b. abt. 1694 was the son of William Sr. end Mary Babcock (his second wife). She was the dau. of Job and Jane (Crandall) Babcock and the granddaughter of Eld. John. Susannah West was the dau. of Francis and Sarah (Meakins) West. Bruce V. Crandall, a descendant said that he talked with his great grandfather, John Myers Crandall and remembers very distinctly many of the events that could be recalled by his grandfather which reached back to Revolutionary times. Therefore we have some authentic data of this family. George, it appears, lived in many places. According to the deposition when he applied for his pension, he said be was born in Oblong, N.Y. This is doubted as it does not seem reasonable that in those days he would have traveled back to R.I. to be married. He was probably born in South Kingstown, R.I. where he married and where his wife, Tacy Tanner was born. We know that he lived in Vermont till Burgoyne's invasion in 1777 when he went to North East, Duchess Co., N.Y. where he lived with his brother Samuel in Little Nine Partners. From there he went to Stephentown, N.Y. abt. 1795, thence to Easton in 1799, thence to Chatham in 1800; to Davenport, Otsego Co. in 1802, and finally to German and Smithville, where he lived with his sons, William and Caleb alternately. From the above deposition we learn that in 1777 he had five children and it is possible that he had others not living with him. According to Albert R. Crandall and Edwin G. Davis we are told there were others and it is certain that there were some living in the same town as George, who from their dates could have been his children. These are listed with his children and followed by a question mark. Onondaga Centennial, part 1, p. 828 says that George had two sons who lived to be over 100 yrs. old and a dau. who lived to the age of 116. Pioneers of Utica, N.Y. recites that Lewis Crandall celebrated his 100th birthday at the home of his granddaughter, Mrs. T. Davis, 5 generations being represented at the gathering; that Lewis spent most of his life in Westmorland, N.Y.; that be came of a long lived race, his father living to the age of 104 and his sister to the great age of 115.
