- AUSTIN,
CROWNER,
POST posted by
Matt Burns on Friday, May 2,
1997
- CROWNER -- Seeking the death date/location of Austin CROWNER, who was
born in Lansing, Ingham County, in 1874, the son of James Duane & Mary Jane
(AUSTIN) CROWNER. He lived primarily in Clinton County, where he was married
to Sarah May POST. They were divorced in 1915, after which time the family
lost contact with Austin CROWNER. He was last known to be living about 1936.
The family thinks he may have lived near Traverse City, Grand Traverse
County or E. Tawas, Iosco County. Both counties have been checked for a
death record with no result. His death probably occurred about 1936-1950.
Some family members think he may have died in the mid-1940's. He also may
have been residing on a county "Poor Farm." He is probably buried in an
unmarked grave.
