THE STORY AS I KNOW IT

Most of the following information came from The Simon Crowell Family by Judith Jo Linenfelser. Also from a webiste re Thompson/Turnbow which is no longer available. 
Conrad Kraul  was born about 1685 probably in Hessen Germany.  His parents are unknown.

Conrad Kraul or Graul married Magdelene Dietrick about 1710.  By 1714 they were living in Langenselbold Hessen and perhaps always had lived there.  It is a large town just east of Frankfort.

Magadelena and Conrad Kraul had one known child:  Peter Kraul christened march 5, 1714 in Langenselbold.

Peter married Catharine or Karena probably in Germany and immigrated in 1740 into Pennsylvania. "Croul Connections" found in rootsweb note that the ship Loyal Judith arrived in Philadelphia on Nov. 25, 1740.  Peter Grauel, age 26 was aboard. He may be our Peter.  Eventually the American family changed the spelling of their name to Crowell.

It is not known when Magdelene or  Conrad died.  I don't believe they emigrated.
