     BIRTH     1697, Hanover County, Virginia, USA
     DEATH     Jul 1766 (aged 68–69), Amherst County, Virginia, USA
     David, III was the son of Capt. David Crawford II and Elizabeth Smith. David III married Anne Anderson daughter of John Anderson and Sarah Waddy, probably in Hanover County, Virginia in 1727/28. They moved to Albemarle County, Virginia in 1750/52. The part they moved to became Amherst County in 1761. And later in 1807, that same part became Nelson County. David brought his elderly parents with him. He built a large house and called it Tusculum Plantation. The deed for 400 acres of land was purchased by David, Jr.(III), in 1752 from Landon Hughes. David served as a Deputy Sheriff then, Sheriff and also a County Clerk.
     David died from an epidemic of some kind that swept through Virginia in 1766. He wrote his Will and signed it on June 21, 1766. The Will was probated on August 4, 1766(Book 1., pp 76-80, Amherst County, VA). Sons, John, David and Joel were his executors. Wife, Anne wrote her Will on August 28, 1802 and it was probated on July 18, 1803. Her Estate Executors were Nelson Anderson and Nathan Crawford who signed a bond on the administration of her estate. Anne was around 95 years of age. Daughters of the American Revolution say Anne gave "Patriotic Service" during the Revolutionary War. She furnished supplies of food.
     The Tusculum Plantation house was inherited by David's grandson, William Sidney Crawford (son of Capt. David, IV & Lucy Henderson). At William's death, he left the house to his daughter, Maria Antoinette Crawford who married Elijah Fletcher. Elijah and Maria built another plantation and named it Sweet Briar. Elijah and Maria gave Tusculum to son, Sidney Fletcher in 1849. At his death in 1898, he left Tusculum Plantation to a cousin, John Jay Williams. Tusculum stayed in the Williams family until 1987 when it was sold to Dr. Clarence "Bud" Edwards. It was later bought by Sweet Briar College.

     UPDATE - May 3, 2013: Sweet Briar Plans to Sell Tusculum
     Sweet Briar College paid $12,500 to purchase the old Tusculum Plantation that was located seven miles from Sweet Briar College. It cost $100,000 to dismantle with each piece tagged and categorized. The pieces were placed in the dairy barn on campus. It is estimated that to reassemble Tusculum will cost $500,000 and $2,000,000 to restore in an historically accurate fashion. Sweet Briar cannot raise the money since the economy has gotten bad. The agreement was that they would have it rebuilt by 2015 or it would revert to APVA (Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities). The APVA says that it also does not have the money to restore Tusculum. Sweet Briar College hopes to sell Tusculum to an historical organization that will restore it.
     UPDATE - May 30, 2014
     Janis(a Sweet Briar alum) and her husband, Sam Roskelley have purchased the old Tusculum Plantation House. They will rebuild it at the Forks of Buffalo in Amherst County, eight miles from its original location. The Roskelleys will add a kitchen and bathroom. They expect the house to be their retirement home.
     Note: The Sweet Briar Plantation house, which is a beautiful mansion that was donated to start Sweet Briar College by Indiana (Fletcher) Williams, a Crawford descendant, is still located on Sweet Briar Campus.
     UPDATE - March 3, 2015
     It has been learned that Sweet Briar College, a small, private, women's college in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountain's, announced that the Class of 2015 would be the final graduating class at the 114-year-old school. The college had been struggling financially, though the staff and alumnae say they had no clue it was this dire.
     UPDATE - Feb. 1, 2016
     Sweet Briar alumnae raised over $12 million to pursue a legal battle to save Sweet Briar College. They won the court case to keep the school open with a new board and administration.
