Hi Amanda: Is this Samuel and Joseph Crown of St. Mary's County, Maryland? If so, finding a clue that they are father and son is new information. I found a mention of Samuel Crown in the will of Samuel Queen, recorded in 1711, St Mary's county, but nothing else. Being that these Crowns did not own any land this early on and appeared to be simple folk, they have been hard to trace. My dream is to find who landed in Maryland first, and when.
I am descended from Lancelot Crown, one of Joseph's sons.
Pat
