10. William Crume, born 2 April 1764,94 probably in Frederick County, Virginia; died 4 November 1795 in Nelson County, Kentucky (on the way to Ky. according to the diary of Jesse Crume) and was buried in Bardstown, Nelson County, Kentucky. He was married, 16 February 1789 in Shenandoah County, Virginia, to Mary Thomas, a daughter of William Thomas. After William Crume’s death at age 31, his widow Mary was named administratrix.95 On 29 August 1796 the estate was enumerated and appraised at just over £172. The most valuable items were a set of smith’s tools, £26; “One Waggon & Strecher to the tongue,” £24; and a bay horse and a bay mare, each £18. Other tools included a a tomahawk, a mattock, a hand saw, three augers, an adz, two hoes, an axe, scythes and five files. There were three wagon bridles, two old bridles, a man’s saddle and a side saddle, as well as a rifle and shot bag. Clothes consisted of “One great Coat, One Suit of Cloaths, To coats and a jaccote [and] One pair of boots.” In 1797 Philip Crume, Sr. and wife Anna deeded land to several of his adult children, as well as 72 acres on Mill Creek in Nelson County to William’s widow Mary and their daughters Sarah and Phebe.96 Mary was married, second, on 16 January 1798 in Nelson County,97 to Samuel Horsely, said to have been a son of Richard Horsley. An 1810 deed in Nelson County suggests that Samual, Mary and her two daughters then lived in Dickson County, Tennessee.98 Samuel and Mary were residents of Clarke County, Arkansas in 1820 when they deeded the 72 acres on Mill Creek to Cyrus Talbot.99 Here the name is spelled Hasley.
