I descend from Redman Crews Sr. through his son, David Morton Crews Sr., born on 18 Dec 1789 (Bible Records) who married Betsy Smith in 1815 in Barren Co., Ky., da of Jeremiah Smith of Barren Co., Ky.
Redman Crews, born 1765 in Charlotte Co.,Va. was a son of John Crews Jr.(c1742-1799) and wife, Sarah Redman, da of William Redman Sr., surveyor and land owner of Charlotte County. Redman Crews fought under Col. Henry Lea in Lea's Legion, Va Continental Line, in South Carolina. Redman Crews returned to Virginia and lived in Halifax Co., Va. next door to his brother, David Crews, who moved to Patrick Co., Va. and died there in 1834. Redman married Sarah Morton, daughter of George Morton of Charlotte County, and they moved to Cumberland Co., Ky., by late 1789 where Redman Crews received Ky Military Land Grants on Marrowbone Creek for his services during the Rev. War. Redman Crews was injured during the war in SC, age 18, and was pensioned in 1832. He had two wives and he was a blacksmith by trade. I don't know the name of his 2nd wife. He had 14 children.
