You likely found your way to my profile because of my Crawford connection. You are surprised as me in this revelation. Through a Y-DNA test I matched with multiple other Crawford's and Crockett's[1]. From family history we traced my paternal lineage to Charles Curtis Brady who first shows up in the 1870 census living as a 10 year old with a Smith family in Patrick County Virginia.[2] In Carroll county in 1860 we find Emily Brady.[3] In Wythe County in 1850 (no 1860 Census has been found) we find Charles Yancey Crawford Jr who's Y-DNA I match.[4] This places my three ancestors in three connecting counties in Virginia when they would have met.
The circumstantial evidence I have to support this connection is on Charles Curtis Brady's death certificate his parents are listed Charles Brady and Emily Crawford. The last names are swapped.
Don't hesitate to reach out to me if we are related or you have a question as I am adding connections to the Crawford tree.
I have lived in: California, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama and Missouri.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
