    Notes 
    • Updated 31 Oct 2026: Elbert Erastus Crumpler, son of Gaston Crumpler and Henrietta (Etta) Williamson: born 16 May 1889, died 14 Jul 1914 at Goldsboro, Wayne County, buried 15 Jul 1914 in Springvale Cemetery, Clinton (North Carolina death certificate; headstone photographed by Charlene Ward). He married Maggie McMillan at Goldsboro on 2 May 1909 (Wayne County marriage register, which names his parents as Gaston and Etta Crumpler); their son Elbert Norwood Crumpler was born in 1913. The 1913 birth record of the son calls the father Erastus Cooper Crumpler, so his full name may have been Elbert Erastus Cooper or Erastus Cooper; the stone has Elbert Erastus. The two Erastus records in this database (I3599 and I16721) are the same man and have been merged.
