JOSEPH CROW was born in Gibson County, Ind., in 1831, and is one of five 
children of Henry and Patsey (McGray) Crow.  The father came to Gibson
County when quite young, but the mother was a native of the county.  Our
subject made his parents' house his home until he attained his majority,
when he began doing for himself.  When twenty-two years old he took for 
his companion through life Emeline, daughter of John Cannon, who was a native
of Kentucky, and came to Indiana when a young man and settled in Knox County
where he worked at agricultural pursuits and blacksmithing.  Joseph Crow,
our subject, came to Knox County in 1858, and in the winter of 1865 enlisted
in Company C, One Hundred and Forty-third Indiana Volunteer Infantry, under
Capt. Bishop, and served in Tennessee.  He enlisted too late to participate
in any battles and was discharged at Indianapolis in 1865.  He located on
his present farm in the spring of 1874, where he owns 100 acres of land.
He became the father of nine children, four of whom are living.  Joseph,
Charlie, Mary Alice and Emma Jane.
