SURNAMES
- Surnames: CROZIER, GRIFFITH
Researcher: Allan Griffith
Email: magriff@bigfoot.com
Date posted: Saturday, February 1, 1997
- GRIFFITH, CROZIER; I am searching for any information on either of these 2 surnames.
Specifically I am looking for any information on Philip GRIFFITH, b.1779, and Elizabeth
CROZIER, b.1784; These 2 were both born in Maryland, and married 1803 @ Steubenville, OH.
I do know there was a Philip GRIFFITH in Frederick Co, MD in the late 1700s, but I cannot
make the connection to my own Philip GRIFFITH. Can anyone tell me if they have details on
these people? Or could you foreward my notes to anyone who might have leads. .

Date posted: Saturday, February 1, 1997
- CROZIER; Searching for family of Elizabeth CROZIER (CROSIER?), b.1784, somewhere in
Maryland. I once thought this name originated in France, but recently have been told is
Irish. I can find CROZIER names in Maryland in the late 1700s, but I cannot find
connections to my Elizabeth. I am certain she migrated to Eastern Ohio by 1803, as she was
married in Steubenville, OH to Philip GRIFFITH in 1803. Can anyone write me or foreward my
notes on to any possible contacts. .
