Sir Robert Crosse was born in Charlinch, Somerset, England in about 1552. He married Olyve Turner in 1576 in London. They had eight children. A possible descendant, Silvester Crosse, son of John Crosse and Margaret Wright, was born in about 1638. He emigrated in about 1682 and settled in Charleston, South Carolina. Traces descendants of this and other Crosse and Cross families, primarily in Maryland, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Louisiana, Indiana and Texas. The author believes these families are related but has not been able to prove it in every case.
