CRABBE worldwide one-name study (GOONS #629)
I am a member of the Guild of One-Name Studies and I would very much like to hear from anyone, anywhere, who has the CRABBE surname (in any of it's many spelling variations) in their tree.
I am compiling a wide range of information from Parish registers, Censuses, Bishops transcripts, Civil records and welcome any contributions or enquiries.
To learn more see my website "Crabbe Family Pages" at http://crabbe.info/
Regards,
John Crabbe

Hello John,
I have Crabbe members in my tree, but don't have that much info about them I'm afraid! Here's what I have:
Gladys SLYNN b1903 Stourbridge marr Fred CRABBE (b1900 Aston?)
children: Jocelyn, Gwen (Wendy?) & Ian.
Probably not much help to you!!!
Regards,
Gillian

Hi Gillian,
Thanks for getting in touch - a Frederick Crabbe's birth was registered in Aston 1st quarter 1900. His marriage was registered 4th q 1927 at Birmingham South.
According to my notes the three children were Jocelyn 3q1928 Birmingham South
Brenda 3q1933 Birmingham and Ian 1q1939 Birmingham although the Brenda may be a mistranscription by the chap who sent me the details of that year.
Hope this is of use to you. Where do you fit in with these members of your family ?
Regards,
John (direct email john@crabbe.info if you don't want to put current details on a message board)

I am afraid this won't help much - it's more of a query about MY family. I am intrigued by a lady named CHARLOTTE CRABBE RHIND who was born In Toronto Canada 1876 to parents Alexander Rhind(b 1838 Aberdden) and Ann MacDonald (b 1837 Aberdeen)who were originally from Aberdeen Scotland having come to Canada about 1870.
I cannot yet find a link to the Crabbe family and am curious as to why Charlotte would have been named Crabbe. In this family, it is usually the maiden name of a female ancestor but I haven't found the link yet.
If you have anyone submit a possible connection to MacDonalds or Rhinds, could you please let me know?
Thanks.

Hello

I have a lot of Crabb surnames in my tree. They are from Exeter in Devon. I have Thomas Crabb, a builder and freeman of the City who married Rebecca MAREDON in Teignhead, Devon. Their son James born 1809 married Emma Nottingham. I can send you full details, dates of birth etc of all the Crabb family if you want them to add to your collection.

Hi John my interest is Margaret Crab DOB 1757 Fordoun, Scotland m. Alexander Tevendale 1778. They had 11 children that I have found & one, Mary Ann Tevendale, was my GG Grandmother. Margeret Crab had at least 4 siblings of which one, William, was her twin. She also had two half siblings. John Crab, her father was married twice & I have all those details if you would like them. John's DOB 12/4/1726 death 6/9/1809. John's father was Robert Crab & grandfather James Crab. I am trying to find Robert's DOB & date of marriage & to whom. I think it may be to Margaret Carneggie in 1720 but have not proved this link yet. Perhaps you could help?
Cheers

Hi
I have:
Benjamin Crabb c1816 father a Wool Comber
Caroline Crabb c1816 mother
Eliza Crabb 1841 North Tawton (my gt-grandmother)
m. Hugo Francis Hawkins (aka Francis).
dau Kate Hawkins m. Charles Fletcher (my g-parents)
Also, Catherine Crabb (a wool comber's wife) and Lucy Scantlebury Crabb related.
I would love to find more of these Crabb family. I do not think they are directly related to the Loders, Dorset crowd.
I have evidence that they are related to the Linkinhorne, Cornwall, Crabb family.
Benjamin and Caroline disappear after the 1841 census. In 1851 Eliza is living with John Scantlebury, Catherine Crabb and Lucy. From this I infer that Catherine Scantlebury married a Mr Crabb (passing her maiden surname to her daughter Lucy). I have yet to find this Crabb, but would suggest he was the brother of Benjamin.
Any help would be just great!
Regards
Rob

Hi I am a 'Crabb' myself and have a copy of our family tree. It only goes back to William Crabb born 1780 who married Margaret Brodie but thought it interesting that he was known as 'William Crabb of Laurencekirk Kincardine. Might be of use to you

As this topic appears to just lurching along I thought I might contact the author but without success and his/her website has not been updated since 2010.
So I don't know what should be done from here.
Any thoughts? :-\ :-\

Jackie, looks like we have a common ancestor. I know that he came from Fordoun and worked as as snuff box maker in Laurencekirk and died in 1825 leaving a young family. Have you looked at the work of his eldest son, also William who was an artist?
