  	"Dear All, This is an article I found last summer in the Stephens Co. History Book in the Breckenridge library in Stephens Co., Texas about my gg-grandparents, one of whose sons was Paul Revere Crowley who wrote a genealogy of our family. It is Paul Revere Crowley's descendents I am looking for but am interested in all that the listserve discusses. The Josiah Allen Crowley in this article is the son of Allen Crowley and Eliza Towers, son of James and Dorcus Smith Crowley, son of Benjamin and Sarah Strong Crowley. Crowley, Josiah Allen (Joe) and Virginia Annie McLEMORE Josiah Allen (Joe) Crowley came to Texas in 1867. He did not settle down until his marriage to Virginia Annie McLemore of Sulphur Springs, Texas in 1874.

In 1884, the family moved to Caddo, where the next three arrived. In 1890, they moved to the Necessity community, where the two youngest children were born. For the approximately 30 years they lived in the community, they were active members of the Mouuntain Vallley Missionary Baptist Church. After their children were grown and married, Joe and Annie Crowley moved to the lower Rio Grande Valley, and farmed there from 1919 until she died in Weslaco in 1925. He died there in 1939.
