John George Cromer (d. bef. 1768) also born in Baden, and died in South Carolina. He and his wife, Christina, had four children, three born in Germany; 3. Andrew Cromer was born in Baden, died 1779 in S.C., and married Margaret Dreher. He is believed to be the progenitor of the Lexington County Cromers. Brothers of the immigrants, who were born in South Carolina were: George William Cromer who married Catherine Richardson; and Jacob Richard Cromer (1825-1896) who married Sarah Ann Caldwell (1845-1934), daughter of Robert Caldwell and Mary Sloan.

"Very nice to make your aquaintance!

My Cromer/Grosvenors were Harrison Cromer and his son, William Harrison Cromer (the second William Harrison Cromer in same Generation. (It would seem Harrison Cromer and another woman, had a son previousvly also named William Harrison (is senior and half brother to my William Harry. *info from Ann Cromer message boards).

My William Harrison Cromer (1859 - 1937), married Elizabeth Ann Grosvenor(b. 1858, daughter of Araminta Whitney and Hiram Grosvenor*(?*). His son Floyd Francis Cromer married Emma Marie Sullenberger approx 1902.

They had 12 kids... one boy died very young, Catherine, William Harry, Bessie, Ethel, Grace, Harry (Harrison,) Margie, Leslie, Ruth, Nyva, my Great Grandmother Vivian Lucille Cromer b. 29 Nov.1902, who was their first born.

She (Vivian), then married John N. Kelly and had

Gladys M. Kelley (b. 1920) later known as Gladys Payne after she was "adopted" by Vivian´s second husband- Joe J. Payne or J.J. Payne or Joseph J. Payne (Joe J. Payne is b. approx.1871 Texas, Yes, I have seen the 1930 Census, Joe J. is 31years, Vivian´s Senior)

There is also a Ruth (b. approx 1921) listed with them, whom I tend to think, may be the daughter of Vivian´s Husband/Partner just previous to Joe J. Payne... a Joseph Manshaw/Manshun/Manshott and his previous partner, leaving his daughter Ruth.

I believe Joe J. Payne, "adopted" Ruth AND my Grandmother, when he married Vivian.

Gladys was 2nd partner of Julius Elsworth Cox from Louisiana and they had a son named Joseph Cox and a daugher named Linda Sue Cox April 2, 1948.

I am hoping, this is pretty much right... the way I´ve entered it now, here. I would so appreciate, any and all information, related GEDCOMS, more info to Elizabeth Ann Grosvenor... who is the Father of Hiram Grosvenor´s Father Nathan? is it Richard Grosvenor (1765-1838)? If yes... and who are his Mother and Father. As well as the Cromer mysteries of, who is Abraham (Abram)´s Father... John Russell Clarke has added a mound of information online, as well to this line. But I haven´t been able to locate anything more on him or a current email... (I hope they are alright.) His wife Gail Grosvenor is the 2xGreat Grandaughter of Alvah Whitney Grosvenor Sr. (from Walker Grosvenor/Richard Baily Grosvenor/then Gail Grosvenor order)." ~Theresa Renee Elena Delgado-Tossas
