About Adam Crump
Y DNA CONFLICT
The haplogroup T-BY50677 is the correct haplogroup for the male descendants of Adam Crump who married Hannah Bushrod.
The conflicting Y DNA is for a descendant of Edward Lamar Crump Sr.
Edward Lamar Crump Sr
1911–1999 BIRTH 23 MAY 1911 • Police Jury Ward 5, Claiborne Parish, Louisiana DEATH 29 JAN 1999 • Alexandria, Rapides Parish, Louisiana, USA
Edward Lamar Crump Sr. is a son of
Albert Sidney Johnston Crump Sr 1878–1912 BIRTH 10 AUG 1878 • Cleveland County, Arkansas DEATH 7 AUG 1912 • Claiborne Parish, Louisiana, USA
There is a paternity break in this Crump line as the Y DNA of the descendant of Edward Lamar Crump Sr. does not match the Y DNA of other male descendants of Adam Crump on family lines of both of Adam Crump's sons John Bushrod Crump Sr and his brother James Crump.
Additional testing is needed to determine where the paternity break in the Y DNA occurred in the paternal ancestors of Albert Sidney Johnston Crump Sr.

ID: I1213 •Name: Adam Crump •Sex: M •Birth: ABT 1699 in co. Meath, Ireland •Death: ABT 1750 in Lancaster Co., Virginia •Reference Number: 1214 •Note: On 24 March, 1729, Adam Crump witnessed the will of William Lenthall, Dublin, Esq., in Dublin, Ireland. The will was also witnessed by Nicholas Ricard and Samuel Graham, both of Dublin. Nicholas was a Witness to the Memorial after Lenthall died in Oct 1732, but Adam was not - he was already in America!
It is probable, but unconfirmed, that Adam's father, James, was a son of either Richard or Adam Crump whom both had their property forfieted in the Williamite Confiscations of 1702-03, and that Adam, being one of the younger sons of James, saw that there was no future for him in Ireland. Perhaps he viewed the new world of America as an opportunity for him. It is also assumed that his brother, Patrick, was the Patrick Crump who was Commander of the ship "Tryal" that sailed from Philadelphia in Nov. 1738 as per Ben Franklin's Pennsylvania Gazette: "Ship TRYAL, Patrick Crump, Commander-Will sail for Ireland; for passage agree with Messers Thomas Robinson and John Erwin, at Mr. Lambert Emerson's, looking for glass-maker, in Front St., Phila. (Nov.)". [Note: No other Patrick Crump is found in the Colonies or in Ireland during this period]. Adam could have arrived on one of Patrick's voyages, or by way of the Caribbean, where a number of other Crumps had been in residence since the late 1600's. Another brother, Nicholas, was a priest in the Caribbean, on Montsuratt. [Note: No other Nicholas Crump is found in Ireland, America or the Carribean during the period]. No record has been found of Adam's entry to this country, but, as we will see later, his will was filed in Dublin in 1750, marking him as the Adam, son of James, of Dublin. Adam's brother John is assumed to be the John Crump mentioned in the will of Dr. George Crump, who died on Antigua in the West Indies in 1756, who instructed his executors and administrators to purchase provisions from John Crump, Merchant in Dublin. John, the eldest, would have inherited his father's land and business, and appears to have continued to live and do business in Dublin.
On 23 Feb., 1732, Adam Crump witnessed the will of William Martin of Charles County, MD (Baldwin, Maryland Calender of Wills, Vol. 6, pp 220). The will of a William Martin of Cecil County, MD, dated 7 Nov., 1733 has bequeths to two cousins, John and Francis Crumpos, son and daughter of Betholome Crumpos (Baldwin, MD. Wills, Vol. 7, pp 13, Cecil Co.). It is unknown at this date whether the two William Martins are the same, or even related. The name "Crumpos" does not exist in this country except for this reference, and it is believed that the name is probably Crump, but no other information is known of Betholome or his family. Cecil County was originally Talbot county and the home of the William Crump who had married Frances Mountney, where he and Frances had migrated from Lancaster County, VA, in the mid 1660's. Frances Mountney's mother, Hannah Boyle (Pendley) Hill Spillman Mountney had patented land with Edwin Conway, I, in Lancaster on the Corotoman River in the 1650's, but no relationship is yet proved between this William and Adam.
In 1734, Adam married Anna Barbara McCarty Fitzhugh, the dau. of Daniel McCarty, Speaker of the House of Burgesses, and Elizabeth Pope McCarty of Westmorland County, VA. [Daniel McCarty's son, also Daniel, was a close personal friend to George Washington, and they visited overnight with each other. Daniel was one of the few private citizens invited to George's funeral service]. Anna McCarty had first married Major John Fitzhugh in 1715, son of Col. William and Sarah Tucker Fitzhugh of Westmorland County, VA, in or before 1719. Anna and John had five daughters and three sons born between about 1719 and 1733. Adam and Anna's children were Thomas born Feb. 17, 1734/5 and John born Sept. 28, 1736. It is not known at this point whether Adam and Anna were also raising her children by John, but likely they were all living in the house that had been John Fitzhugh's. Adam did not mention her children in his own will.
In a deposition taken in 1736 in Fairfax County, VA. "...the dancing master would be Adam Crump. He claimed on land on the great Henting Creek but claimed land 8 or 9 miles from Alexandria at the head of Piney Run."
On 10 May, 1735, the will of James Crump, father of Adam, was filed in Dublin Ireland. A transcript of the will is in the Notes for James. James' will was probated 16 May, 1737. Since wills were filed only after death, it is more likely that he had died by 1735.
Also in 1735, Adam Crump of St. Pauls's Parish, Stafford County, purchased one thousand acres on Dogue Run in Truro Parish in Prince William County, Virginia, from John Warner, a surveyor. Prince William County had been created from Stafford County in 1730, effective in 1731. Warner had worked for Daniel McCarty. It was the same land which was granted unto the said John Warner, surveyor, by deed on March 9, 1730 from the Proprietors of the Northern Neck of Virginia (DB "B" pp 483, June 26, 1735, Stafford Co. VA.). This land became part of Fairfax County when it was formed in 1742. Today the land is just north of Fort Belvoir, near Franconia, just south of Downtown Washington, D.C. Adam had permission to cut timber from an adjacent property knows as "World's End" in order to build a house.
By 1737, Adam had purchased 195 acres of land in Charles County, Maryland, across the Potomac from Stafford County, from Richard Brett.
July 3, 1738 - Succession of John Briscoe in Charles Co. MD, "Payments to: Dr. Brown, Robert Gill, Adam Crump... " (Maryland Probate Records), so Adam was at least involved in this land, although there is no evidence that he actually lived there.
Anna Barbara McCarty Fitzhugh died December 12, 1737, and Adam married second Hannah Bushrod, widow of Joseph Heale (son of George Heale and his wife Ellen). Heale had been elected Vestryman in Christ Church, Lancaster Co., VA in 1739 and died August 6, 1741. Adam and Hannah were married August 6, 1742, in Lancaster County, and Adam had apparently relocated to Lancaster County by that date. All of the persons named as executors and witnesses of his will were in Lancaster County.
In 1743 the Proprietors of Northern Neck granted Adam 385 additional acres of "wasteland" or uncultivated land lying in Fairfax County just to the west of, and adjacent to, the land already owned by him (Fairfax County, VA. DB "F" pp 97, March 13, 1743).
It is worth noting that the southern tip of Adam's 1,385 acres was less than two and a half miles north of land owned by McCarty, just over three miles north of the Fitzhugh property, and less than four miles north of the Bushrod property! All these families obviously knew each other, and it was through these associations that Adam must have first known Hannah Bushrod Heale.
In 1750 Adam's will was filed in Dublin. It is not known why it was filed there. It is recorded in the "Index to The Act or Grant Books, And to Original Wills, of The Diocese of Dublin to the Year 1800", p. 204. Of course this is only an Index, but a significant find. The Index read: "Crump, Adam, Virginia, America, Merchant, 1750". In Ireland wills were normally filed after the death of the testator, indicating that Adam had died by 1750, and no other Adam Crump is known in America in that time.
Adam's will was dated September 6, 1748 and proved in Lancaster County, Virginia on March 16, 1753 (see Lancaster County, VA Will Books 13, page 239 and will book 15, page 126). It can only be presumed that this was the same will filed in Dublin. There was no mention in his will of any property he owned or for which he had any interest in Ireland. Neither did it mention any land owned by him in Lancaster County (as that was still owned by his wife Hannah). However, as indicated in the previous paragraph, he probably died in 1750. Thomas and John Crump did not live to adulthood. Hannah decided to remain in Lancaster County, Virginia, after Adam died (in the Journal of James Gordon, he mentions Hannah Crump visiting him on August 3, 1761, at his home at Corotoman, Lancaster Co., Virginia). Following is a complete transcript of Adam's will (With paragraphs used for easier reading only; originally only one paragraph):
"I, Adam Crump, of the county of Lancaster being of sound mind & memory thanks be to God do make this my last will & testament in manner following Viz. I just committ my soul to God my Creator and my body to the Earth its original being fully assured that the sacrifice of Christ is a worthy expiation for all the sins of the faithful and therefore hope my soul and body will have a joyful meeting at the resurrection of the just by the merits, mediation and intercession of our complete redeemer the Lord Jesus Christ Amen.
"I give to my sons by my first wife John & Thomas Crump all my lands and the appurtenances situate in the county of Fairfax to be equally divided between them and the heirs of their body respectively lawfully to be begotten and if both of my said sons die without heirs of their of one of their bodys, then I give all of the said land and appurtances to my two sons by my last wife, John Bushrod Crump and James Crump, to them and their heirs of their body lawfully to be begotten equally to be divided between them.
"I give to my son John Bushrod Crump my tract of land in Maryland and the yearly rent thereof to him and the heirs of his body and for the want of such issue to my son James and the heirs of his Body.
"Item I give and bequeath to my beloved wife Hannah Crump during her natural life the uninterrupted use and profit of all my Negroes that I am now possessed of and their increase and also all of my stock of cattle and other creatures of all kinds and all my household goods of all sorts whatsoever during her life. After her decease I give all the said Negroes, stock, household goods to my three children by my said wife Hanna [i.e.,] John Bushrod, Hannah Bushrod and James, & their heirs to be equally divided among them when they attain to the age of eighteen years. But if my said three children shall die before that age then my will is that my children by my first wife shall have the said Negroes and other estate to them & their heirs.
"Item It is my will that my executors shall put out at interest four hundred pounds current money now in the hands of Maj. John Champ and as the interest comes in to put it out at interest also and at the end of ten years to pay to my two sons John & Thomas two hundred pounds to each of my said sons by my first wife out of the sd. Money, and the rest to continue at interest till my son John Bushrod shall attain to the age of twenty one years and then all this money to be equally divided among my three children by my last wife.
"Item I appoint my executors herein after named to be the tutors to my two sons by my first wife and if my present wife shall die in the minority of my children by her then it is my will that my said executors shall be tutors to my children by my last wife also.
"Item It is my will that my son John Crump after he is sufficiently educated to be bound by his tutors to a physician surgeon or to an apothecary till he is twenty years of age and my son Thomas to a Lawyer or to a Clerk of a court for the term of seven years. Item it is my will that if any money falls to me by the death of any friend it shall be equally divided among my five children & their heirs.
"Item I give all the rest of my personal estate of whatever kind [what]soever not before herein mentioned to my beloved wife Hannah Crump.
"Item I do appoint my good friends Peter Conway, James Gordon, William Jordon [sic], and Harry Turner, Gent. Executors of this my last will & Testament. In Witness whereof I have here unto set my hand & seal."
(1748Signed sealed & delivered after interlining the words (of the body) and three small omitions [sic].
Adam Crump (seal)
In presence [sic] of Edwin Conway, John Heath, John Jordon [sic]
At a court held for Lancaster County on the 16th of March, 1753, this will was proved in open court by the oath of John Gordon, one of the witnesses, thereto & be ordered to be recorded. Test. Thomas Edwards, Jun. C.C.
Lancaster County Wills, etc. No. 15, 1750-58
Adam Crump's appraisement, 16 day of March 1753. "We the subscribers having met being first sworn to appraise the estate of Mr. Adam Crump deceased as followed: Total 429lb, 10s, 11. (Signed) William Montague, George Payne, George Smither"
"True and perfect inventory of all the estate of Adam Crump decd. as yet come to my hands except a few trifles. (Signed) Hannah Crump"
The language of the will instructing that the executors act as tutors "to my two sons by my first wife" certainly implies that they were still living at the time of the writing of his will in 1748 while they were about 15 and 13 years old.
Edwin Conway who witnessed Adam's will was Edwin "III". The first Edwin was in Virginia by 1640 and was originally from Worcestershire, England, and probably born about 1610. As ""Edwyn Connaway, of Northampton, Clark" he was granted land in Oct. 1644 (1,250 acres of land in the county of Lancaster on the South east side of Corotoman River, 1,000 acres part thereof having been formerly granted by patents dated 6 Dec., 1652). Edwin died in Lancaster Co., VA in 1675. Edwin III was born 1681-82 and died Oct 3, 1763. He was a leading man in Lancaster county for many years. He was a vestryman for many years of Christ Church and St. Mary's White Chapel, in Lancaster. He married Ann Ball in 1704. Ann was the half sister of Mary Ball, mother of George Washington. Edwin III married 2nd Ann Hack, dau of Dr. George and Anna Herman Hack. "Col." Conway's children included Anne, who married Robert Edmonds; Peter, who died in 1763 (another executor of Adam's will and husband of Elizabeth Spann;, George who married Ann Heath; and Millicent, who married James Gordon (another executor of Adam's will).
James and John Gordon were from Newry, co. Down, Ireland, being the two eldest of four sons of another James Gordon of Sheepbridge, co. Down. John was the eldest of the two and was married to Millicent Conway, daughter of Edwin Conway, III. William (F) Gordon was son of John Gordon. The the ancestors of these Gordons are said to have come from Scotland to Ireland during the Ulster Plantation. W & M Quarterly indicates the earlier James Gordon was condemned to death and his estates forfeited in Wigtonshire "as a Presbyterian" in 1689.
John Heath appears to be a son of Thomas Heath. Thomas was the son of another Thomas Heath from Northumberland County who died before 1690. The will of Thomas the son was dated June 6, 1727, and proved in July 1729. His wife Winifred and children William, John, Betty and Mary are named in it. On August 13, 1753, John Heath was sworn as lieutenant of the Troop and Foot. , by July 8, 1754 he was Capiain of Foot in Wicomico parish, and on Feb. 12, 1759, he was a vestryman in that parish. On Oct 14, 1776, John Heath, Gentleman, was appointed Capiain of the Minute Company whereof William Lee was formerly captain and at the time of his death in 1783, he was a Justice of the Peace. Captain Heath engaged in merchandizing in Northumberland County on an extensive scale. He married 1st, his cousin, Mary Waddy, and 2nd, Judith Unknown, and 3rd, Chloe Unknown. This John Heath may have been the same as the John Heath who was first predident of Phi Betta Kappa Society founded at William and Mary in 1776. It is interesting to note that Hannah Crump, daughter of William Crump of Talbot Co., MD, and her then husband William Tarbotin conveyed the 50 a. tract "Crumpton" in MD to a James Heath of Cecil Co., MD on March 19, 1719. The full relationship between the Heaths and Crumps is not yet known.
James Gordon's son-in-law by his second wife, Mary Harrison, was the Rev. James Waddell, D.D., a blind minister at Christ Church in Lancaster, one of the Presbyterian churches they apparently all attended regularly. Joseph Heale had been Vestryman at this same church before he died, and it is assumed by acquaintance that Adam did as well.
The following is from one of the publications of John Fredrick Dorman: The death of Major Harry Turner (the third of Adam's Executors) late in 1751 left vacant the clerk-ship of King George County, as well as his seat in the House of Burgesses. Harry Turner was the clerk who filed the will of Augustine Washington, and shortly after 1750 Elizabeth Turner, widow of Harry, and daughter of Colonel Nicholas Smith of King George, married Bowler Cocke. Thomas Turner had been a Burgess from King George in 1723. An earlier Nicholas Smith was a Burgess from Isle of Wright in 1659.
Major John Champ was mentioned in Adam's will as to be in charge of the money left to his children. James Gordon mentions attending the wedding of John Champ in the early 1760's, so they were all neighboors and attended the same Presbyterian Churches. Research on John Champ indicates that he was a wealthy landowner and acted as a "Personal Banker" to many during his lifetime.
The executors of Adam Crump were on the Rent Rolls for Fairfax County for 1800 acres in 1761 and 1764; and for 1000 acres in 1772 and 1774.
