Littleberry Croley began appearing in Knox County Kentucky (later becomes part of Whitley County after the Civil War) land grants and deed records in 1805. Additional land was purchased (07-Mar-1808 Book 1 Cane Creek) appearing on a petition for a new county in Anderson and on December 22 of that year, where he bought 150 acres of land in Campbell County, TN for $600. He purchased an additional 150 acres in 1808.
By 1813, he was involved in a lawsuit, then on June 4, 1816, Littleberry's attorney announced in court that he had died and in December of the same year the lawsuit was dismissed.
It is the belief of many Croley/Crowley researchers that Littleberry and his family along with his brother William & Will's family were leaving from Powell Valley Tennessee for resettlement in Missouri but by the time they had reached the area around Lot, Littleberry had fallen ill.
The rest of the family moved on to Missouri, but Littleberry remained and died on his farm in Cane Creek, Whitley County. His immediate family stayed and continued to live in the area.
The Lawson and Croley families are burried in family cemeteries all around the Cane Creek area, including the Old Cane Creek Cemetery.
I am a direct descendant of Littleberry Croley through his daughter, Nancy Jane Croley who married Isham Lawson. I have talked with many of Littleberry's descendants that still live in the Cane Creek area and it is strongly believed he is burried in the Old Cane Creek Cemetery.
