Notities over Ambrose Crowley Jr

a Quaker Blacksmith in Stourbridge, Worcestershire

[note jam.ged]

This was the Ambrose Crowley that was noted in Men of Iron.  He was a quaker and did not have any pretense of knighthood, but his son took the title.  He had the first Industry of London according to the book, and was very successful.  His plant bought Iron from Germany and Sweden, guaranteed their product, had a widow's fund, schools, churches, and medical help for employees....very unusual for the times.  His children had bigger aspirations to society and all of his grandaughters married well.

He is mentioned on p. 495 of Le Neve's Knights.

1657 married to Mary Hall.

"Men of Iron":  ' Of his son, Ambrose II, more is known. 1 (the genealogy of the Crowley family has been exhaustively unravelled by A.L. Reade in "The Reades of Backwood Hills" (Privately printed, 1906); and Johnsonian Gleanings, Parts I-IX (1909-39).  There are also genealogical tables in B.M. Add.MSS. 14, 831 and 19 ,125 and in Ashburnham Lewes MS. 4350.)  He was baptized ---'so called', according to a Quaker observation-- on 13 August, 1635.  At some time before 1657 he removed to Stourbridge, and in that year married Mary Hall, daughter of Thomas Hall of Chadwich.

Buried in the Friends' Burying Ground on Stourbridge, the land he himself had granted to the Society.  He was laid to rest beside his second wife, who had died 19 years earlier.

In his will drawn up in 1713, Ambrose II was as generous in death as he had been throughout his long life.  He had no widow for whom to make provisions, and his modest fortune was distributed widely amongst his numerous relations.  Rightly, his daughter Judith received the largest bequest, 700 pounds out of a total of rather more than 3,000 pounds.  In all there were specific bequests to thirty-nine people, besides small bequests to an indeterminate number of grand-children. Most of the legatees were his children and their in-laws, but others were workmen, workmen's widows and servants.  Nor were the poor forgotten:  those of his own parish of Oldwinford were to receive 20 pounds, the poor Friends of Stourbridge, 10 pounds, and the poor Friends of the Dolobran meeting (the birthplace of his two Lloyd sons-in-law), 10 pounds.
