1051 [aacrockett.FTW] From NOTABLE SOUTHERN FAMILIES - Volume V; The Crockett Fam ily andConnecting lines. Compiled by Janie Preston Collup French and ZellaArmst rong-1928. CHAPTER II EMIGRANT I, SAMUEL CROCKETT A son of James Crockett (s on of Antoine) and Martha Montgomery (dau.of Thomas Montgomery), of Ireland, bo rn about 1690 or 1694. Heemigrated to America about 1715 at the age of twenty - one. Traditionsays he was on the same ship with the Rev. John Thompson (see sk etchof his life elsewhere) and family and that he played with his littledaughte r, Esther, then about five years old, and fell in love with hersweet, childish ways and told the father he was going to wait for hislittle daughter to "grow u p," if he might. The Reverend John Thompsonlaughingly gave his consent, never dreaming the young man would wait. Whether this be true, or only a tradition, it makes a prettybackground and the descendants of Esther still cling to the tr adition.Tradition further stated that his name was John or John William, butall court records have been searched for -a will of a John Crockett,who had a wife Esther, and who died at the time Esther's husband died,but none can be found. However, the Augusta County records contain a will of a SamuelCrockett, dated Dec. 11, 1749, and probated May 22, 1750, which speaksof "wife Esther" and chil dren known to be thechildren of this coupleand lands known to be theirs- all of which seems to break down the"tradition" and es-tablish the facts. Esther Tho mpson evidentlymarried Samuel Crockett, of the ship episode, since it is a know n factthat her first husband was about twenty years older than she. He diedthe last of December, 1749, or early in the year 1750 and was "an oldman." It is a lso a known fact that Esther was forty-three orforty-four years of age when he died and that in 1753 she married herneighbor, William Sayers, a young man abou t twenty years younger thanshe. Other proofs that her husband was named Samuel instead of John are:Her daughter Ann Agnes married John Mont-gomery, and in Jo hnMontgomery's willhe appoints Robert, John and Samuel Crockett, "sonsof Samuel Crockett," as hisexecutors. In Chalkley's Abstracts of Augusta County, we fin d in Vol. III, pp.235-237, a settlement of the estate of Col. James Patton in which Wm.Sayers is acting for the children "of Samuel Crockett." That was in17 57 and, Esther having married William Sayers about 1753, it is onlynatural that he should be incharge of an account of his stepchildrenunder age. We hope tha t the descendantsof Esther Thompson Crockett will notobject to burying the name "John" for her husband,andwillnow"carryon"thenewfoundnameof"Samuel." I say new and yet it isnot with all the descendants. That tradition seemed largely conf inedto the Crocketts of Wythe and Tazewell Counties. Other descendantsfrom dif ferent parts of the country have sent in their records as fromEsther and Samuel Crockett, a sonof James and Martha Montgomery. Having thus disposed of the nam e we now go on. Esther Thompson wasborn about 1710 and married about 1732 or 1 734. Her father was inMaryland and Pennsylvania during the early part of his m inistry inAmerica and no doubt young Samuel also went to Pennsylvania as most o fthe Crockcrts, as well as other emigrants, seemed to have settledthere before going to Virginia. Their first child, Samuel Jr., was born in Prince Edward Cou nty, Va.,in 1735. After that they moved to what is now Wythe County, a d lived v5Lhere Mr. .1. Williamson McGavock now lives, between Max @YE,;s-'an-a'-@the'- ville, Va. Hebought this place from Col. James Patton and refers to sa-rn@, in his will. It joined that of the William Sayers estate and after shemarried Wil liam, she moved over to his place, which has been owned bysome of her descendan ts since that time. The present owner is Mr. J.Williamson McGavock. Miss Mary Sue 0glesby, another descendant, has the old Sayers Bible,owned by Esther afte r she married William Sayers. We publish thereco CROCKETT, Samuel (I2784)

1059 [aacrockett.FTW] Some think she was a sister of Capt. John Montgomery, who married AnnAgnes Crockett (a sister of john), but the Montgomery Family History places an Elizabeth Montgomery as marrying a ___?____ Crockett, andgives her as a daughter of a Robert Montgomery who married threetimes: lst, Mary Love; 2 ' nd, Rachel Bohannon;3rd, Patsy WhiteCotton. It gives the dates of birth of onl y two of the childrcn-john,b. 1767; d. 1848; m. Mary Thomas; so presume he was child of the firstwife, as 2nd marriage was in 1798, and 3rd in 1819. Elizabet h Montgomery Crockett went on a visit to her daughter inWilliamson Co., Tenn., where she died and is buried.
