| Notes |
- Added 29 Oct 2026 from Gloria Crumpler Vester's Crumpler database (crumpler.org, 1999). Her record, with any relatives not copied here, is in the Gloria tree on this site (person I3147).
- Appears as Josiah B. Crumpler in the household of John S. Crumpler at Bonnetsville in the 1850, 1860 and 1870 censuses, then as Joseph Blackman Crumpler. On 10 Jun 1864, aged 17, he enlisted in the Confederate Army at Fayetteville, NC (Company C, 6th Battalion, North Carolina Armory Guard, Confederate Arsenal) and served until the end of the war.
He moved to South Carolina, married Augusta Vermel Carter, and lived at Cartersville, where he was appointed postmaster on 28 Oct 1872; the couple are in the 1880 census for Lisbon Township, Darlington County. His brother Franklin Marion Crumpler, visiting him there, met his own future wife, Susan Copeland. On 28 Apr 1914 he was admitted to the Infirmary for Confederate Veterans in Columbia, SC, where he died two months later; his application named a brother in Clinton, NC and a sister in Winston-Salem, NC.
A brother "Joseph Crumpler, born 1841" appears in many trees, from an error first made in the 1970s. No such son is in John S. Crumpler's household in 1850; the only Joe is Josiah B., born 1847, who is this man. The phantom Joseph was removed from this tree on 31 Oct 2026 (and from Gloria Vester's 1999 tree, with a note there). Correction from Stewart Crumpler.
