Title: William Crozer ( or Crozier, or Crosier)
Post by: Lweston on Sunday 04 February 18 04:52 GMT (UK)
Specifically, looking for information on his marriage to Isabel Burnet, particularly her parents.  I am not sure I have the correct information (the correct Isabel).  My information shows the marriage to be 14 Sep 1827.
Marriage place: Roberton, Selkirk

His father is also William Crozer, and his mother is Jane (Jean) Robson.

There is a daughter, Jane, born 18 Feb 1830.

I would appreciate any help I can get.   :)

The children match my records.

Was there any information about Isabel Burnet’s parents?

Thanks for your help with this!

There are 2 Willian Croziers in Yarrow churchyard. Both on one headstone. One died 1858 aged 64yrs (b 1794) and the other died 1823 aged 78yrs (b 1745) could be father and son. No spouses shown.

Thank you for the information.

My 3rd and 4th great grandfathers are both William Croziers.  The dates on yours are different from mine, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are not the same, I guess.  I will add your information to mine.

My information shows that my 3rd great grandfather emigrated to New York, USA and died there.

My Croziers appear to come from Castleton, Roxburgshire.  What is the geographic proximity to Yarrow churchyard?  Would it be possible that the younger William’s name was added to his father’s headstone even though he was buried elsewhere?

Again, I thank you.

Solidrock,

Just wanted to follow up with you on Isabella Burnett.  I had questions about whether the Isabella on my tree was the right one.  That had become a question for me while trying to find documention to flesh out my tree.

Just today I got a DNA match to a cousin who also has this Isabella on her tree with the same parents I have for her.  I feel a little more confident that I have the right one.  She is from Colton, Ayr and emigrated to New York, USA with William and the children.

I am new at this, especially with international records, and want to make as sure as possible that I have it right before I continue backward.

Joan Wallace was William Crozier's second wife, William's father was also William Crozier.
