Metes & Bounds II: David Crews, Ancestors & Descendants

By Donna Hechler Porter

David Crews was born in 1740 to David Crew and Mary Stanley. A birthright Quaker, David Crews would leave that faith to join the militia and fight for a young nation's freedom. About 1760 he married his step-sister Annie Magee. This second volume in the Metes & Bounds Series traces not only their ancestry and childhoods, but their move to Bedford County, Virginia, and eventually Boonesborough, Kentucky, where David became one of the wealthiest planters in Madison County. The book includes histories and descendant listings of David and Annie's children, as well as David's children by second wife Mildred Williford-Carlew. Included are family group sheets, documents, photographs, maps, and personal histories on many of his descendants. Originally published in 1993, this 2nd edition has a new typeface, an improved numbering system, a new foreword by the author, recently discovered information on many of David's ancestors and descendants, and a more thorough history of not only David Crews but his father David Crew as well.
