Following the 'Who Do You Think You Are?' UK episode featuring news reader Sophie Raworth where it reveals her 5xgreat grandfather was one Abraham Crowder I have been putting her tree onto Geni and although I cannot see a link yet I feel sure there will be one between her tree and this US tree.
Things in common:
Her Crowders were Nurserymen and seedsmen specialising in growning pineapples (not exactly easy in Yorkshire England!)
US Crowders Henry is probably the son or grandson of Hugh Crowder,the tobacco plantation owner. Some believe that Henry may be the son of a Hugh Crowder Jr.,Gent.,who is likely(if he existed)to be the son of Hugh the plantation owner.Henry had 349 acres of land in Charles City Co.Va.

Names of Abraham Crowder's children (US) are echoed in those of Abraham Crowder England
Abraham Crowder? :
Now some names are just common so you would say that it's just coincidence however the Name Anderson is not so common and combined with other repeated names and the horticultural similarities it's worth watching for a link.

Thank you for this brief. Too bad there aren't too many Crowder descendents researching our lines. This juncture in our line is so frustrating!
