Enslaver Information
Name: Thomas Crozier Location: Bardstown, Nelson County , Kentucky
Previous Enslaver: Maria (widow) Crozier
Enslaver Notes:
Maria Crozier born about 1781 was enumerated in the 1860 Nelson Co., KY slave schedule, with a listing for a 22 year old male, whose age is an approximate match to Alfred Crozier. Maria was likely a family member of Thomas H. Crozier as they were enumerated in the same household in 1850. The associated 1860 slave schedule for the soldier includes the last four enslaved listed (top of page, left column) on the same page as Thos. H. Crozier. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1x6DlF_1Gw2ZeAf7FJT-FFCYny1xDiCtr/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=118327736904320291078&rtpof=true&sd=true
