Philip Crose at first located upon the southwest quarter of section 19, in August, 1855, and here he erected his humble cabin of logs. This historic building, having outlasted the days of its usefulness, has been torn down and the material of which it was built, used for fire wood. Mr.Crose sold out his claim a short time after his settlement, to James Parnell, of Indiana, who had some idea of coming here to locate. In the spring of 1856, he (Mr. Crose) took another claim on the northwest quarter of the southwest quarter of section 18, where he is living to this day.
Philip Crose, son of Solomon and Fannie (Campbell) Crose, was born Nov. 18, 1812, in Ohio. When quite young, he left Ohio, and went with his father to Shawneetown, Ill., where he lived five years, and then removed to Vigo Co., Ind., near Terre Haute. After living here a while, he moved to Tippecanoe Co., Ind., and lived with his father until he died in 1845. He was married Jan. 22, 1834, to Mary Crouch, born in Ross Co., Ohio. They had. seventeen children, eleven of whom are living -- John, Syntha, Sarah, Abram, Thompson, James, Joseph, George, Louisa, Frank and Philip. Mr. Crose owns 163 acres of fine land on sections 13 and 18, having his residence on section 18, Irvington township. Politically he is a democrat. Mrs. Crose is a member of the M. E. Church.

    The actual gravestone says he died on "June 2nd 1887, aged 74 years 6 mo, 14 days". That would be 18 Nov 1812. So Find A Grave is both right and wrong. Thankfully the actual photos are available.
