  • Story: William Crump Alias Simpson William Ross

    <p>Research reveals that after William&#39;s marriage to Florence ended he went to Sydney where he worked with his brother-in-law Jacob Heiner, his sister Rebecca&#39;s husband.&nbsp; Family knowledge suggests that William found another partner and, as Florence was a Catholic and&nbsp;wouldn&#39;t divorce him, William changed his name to Ross and married her.&nbsp; He eventually moved to Kingsgrove, Sydney.&nbsp; </p><p>I&#39;ve attached a marriage source, though not sure of it being 100% accurate, it does seem to fit the situation.</p><p>Whilst researching another line of the Crump family, I spoke to a family memeber who lived at Trangie, New South wales and he mentioned a Bill Crump who lived at Gin Gin and he was the son of Simpson Crump.&nbsp; He advised me that Bill died there.</p><p>&nbsp;The N.S.W. Wales death records show a Simpson William Ross having died at Trangie in 1963&nbsp;and registered in the Narromine district.</p><p>&nbsp;The only other record I could find was the electoral roll for 1943 which shows a Simpson William Ross living at Kingsgrove and sharing the address with Lydia Henrietta Ross.&nbsp; Lydia died in 1962.&nbsp; I believe that she was born Lydia Henrietta Worn.</p><p>&nbsp;The information certainly supports that this history is that of William Crump born 1894 the son of Simpson and Elizabeth Crump.</p><p>It appears that William had a son to Lydia called Maurice/Morris.</p><p>It is not cetain if he had children to Florence but a headstone for Florence May Crump at Charleville suggest there were.</p><p>&nbsp;Contact with anyone who can add to the story would be appreciated.&nbsp;</p>
