William Crump of Lancaster Co., VA married Frances Mountney, daughter of Alexander and Hannah (Boyle) Mountney. William Crump's Lancaster Co., VA records cast him in a very unfavorable light, being replete with child abuse, law breaking and convictions. NOTE: The description of child abuse he was charged with was not disclosed.(Source: PenleyPearls.com).
Following his mother-in-law's, Hannah (Boyle) Hill Spelman Mountney's, death in 1659, William Crump was appointed executor of her estate, and guardianship over William and Elizabeth (Hill) Pinley's orphans was transferred from Hannah (Boyle) Mountney to him. The orphan's deceased mother, Elizabeth (Hill) Pinley, was the half-sister of William Crump's wife, Frances (Mountney) Crump. William Crump was abusive to the orphans, Thomas and Dorothy Pinley, especially Dorothy. William Crump was officially reported abusive to the orphans even "in the face of this court". On 14 May 1662, he was sued by Walter Hyrd for defamation which he "acknowledge...with sorrow." On 09 July 1662, he was charged with breaking into the house of Richard George and taking bags of Indian corn and on 18 Mar 1662/63 charged with threatening Ralph Horton so that "hee goeth in danger of his life". (Lancaster Co., Order Bk. 1655-1656. pp180, 317) He was evidently violent toward others as well. He and his family moved to Talbot Co., Maryland in Feb. 1665.
Mary Spelman was the daughter of Thomas Spelman and his wife, Hannah (Boyle) Hill Spelman and the half-sister of William Crump's wife, Frances Mountney. Mary Spelman married Nicholas Porquér (also found as Porque, Parque, Parke). Originally, the only hard evidence of the marriage was that Nicholas Porquér was eventually named a guardian for William and Elizabeth (Hill) Pinley’s three orphans after the death of Hannah (Boyle) Mountney and their abuse by Will Crompe (William Crump). The children were not indentured to Crump or Porquér because both men were uncles of the orphans. NOTE: a small conundrum has arisen concerning the number of orphans who were transferred from William Crump to Nicholas Porquér. Records show that Elizabeth (Hill) Pinley had three children. Two of her orphans were sent to live with William Crump. No record shows where the 3rd child was during this period. Strangely, three orphans were given to Nicholas Porquér and his wife because of the abuse William Crump caused Dorothy Pinley. The records are probably in error.
According to the laws of England and Virginia, orphans were to be given to family members to raise. If no family member was available or willing, an approved member of the community would be given indentured contracts or apprenticeships which would specify responsibilities and time limits. These guardianships were assigned to Hannah (Boyle) Mountney, William Crump, and Nicholas Porquér with no stipulations of indenture because of the family relationship.
On 20 Mar 1671, after he moved to Talbot Co., MD, William Crump claimed 7 head rights for importing his family. These head rights included himself, his wife, Frances, sons William and John, daughter Elizabeth and the orphans, Thomas and Dorothy Pinley. This head count confirms that William Crump was the guardian of only two of the Pinley orphans. One of the Pin;ey children may have been deceased. William had continued his abuse of Dorothy Pinley as late as 1670 when she was about 23 years old. William's penchant for abusing Dorothy Pinley resulted in her giving power of attorney to Michael Miller on 14 July 1670 in Talbot Co., MD to arrest and prosecute William Crump.
Talbot Co., MD records show William purchased 200 acres, "Costin's Choice", on 20 Nov 1671 and on 13 Sept 1679 he purchased 150 acres called 'Levington" (Talbot Co., MD Deed Bk. 1, p183; Deed Bk. 3, p313). On 16 Oct 1683, he and Frances sold 200 acres, "Plain Dealing", on the south side Chester River and west side of Broadrib's Branch, to James Barber (Talbot Co., MD Deed Bk. 4, p260). He was appointed constable of Chester Hundred on 18 Mar 1672/3 and was living as late as 1689 when he continued as captain of a foot company in the Talbot County militia (Talbot Co., MD Court Proceedings BB No. 2, p563). He died before 11 Sep 1695 when John Loyd gave receipt to Frances Crump, widow and executrix of the last will of William Crump. No copy of the will survives.
The children of William and Frances ( Mountney) Crump were:
1) William Crump, Died unmarried
2)John Crump, Died unmarried
3) Elizabeth Crump
4) Hannah Crump d. 1756
5) Robert Crump (see below)
