Don't know if this might help you, but I checked the 1850 IN census and did not locate
a Samuel CROSSEN in Indiana in 1850. However, there was a Samuel CROSSEN in Perry Co. OH
in 1850. He was 49 years old in 1850.

Subject: Re: [INJAY] Skinner family
Barbara,
Sorry, I misspoke before (should have looked at my charts before my last
post). Matilda married Samuel Crossen, not William Crossen.
I wish I knew who his parents were. I know very little about him, except
that he married Matilda Debolt Skinner sometime between 1850 (when her
first husband, William Henry Skinner, died) and 1852, when Matilda is named
as his wife in William's probate papers. Beginning in 1859, Matilda is
named as the wife of Joseph Brown in probate and land records.
William and Matilda (Debolt) Skinner lived in Perry County, Ohio. I've seen
the McFadden name there on occasion.
I'd be happy to exchange information with anyone researching any of these
families!

Do you know who the parents of William Crossen was who married Matilda
Skinner? I am working on the Crossen/Crossan line from Pa to Ohio and
on into Jay
County, Ind.
Associated with the Crossens is Ranck, McFadden, Taylor. Appreciate any help
on any of these surnames. Glad to exchange data with anyone who is interested.
