Who was Major Joseph Croshaw, Marston Parish’s champion and chief donor? At various times, he had owned almost all of the land in York County north of Queens Creek, so it would be natural for him to take a proprietary interest in the parish. Joseph was the son of Captain Raleigh Croshaw, gentleman, who came to Jamestown in the Second Supply of 1608, became a renowned Indian fighter and was eventually elected as a Burgess in 1623.

At some later date, John married a second wife, Elizabeth, whose surname is also unknown, who was the mother of Charles. After John Clay’s death, Elizabeth his widow married a close neighbour, Captain John Wall, and after Wall’s death, she married John Tate.
