Callie I. Maiden1

b. 7 March 1869, d. 22 May 1934
FatherDaniel Wilson Maiden2 b. 4 Nov 1827, d. 13 Feb 1891
MotherRebecca Elizabeth B. Logan2 b. 27 Apr 1828, d. 8 Jun 1906
Birth7 Mar 1869 Callie I. Maiden was born on 7 Mar 1869 in Washington County, Virginia.3 
Name Other  Callie's full name may have been Sarah Caroline Isabelle but she appears to have favored "Callie."4 
Cens-18802 Jun 1880  At the time of the 1880 census enumeration Callie was recorded living in her sister's home, rather than with her parents. Emma [enumerated as "Maiden"] and her husband D[avid] Bowers resided in Wythe County.5 
Marriage6 Oct 1886 She married Thomas H. Crabtree on 6 Oct 1886 in Washington County.6 
  Callie and Thomas lived in Abingdon in Washington County. In the early years of their marriage Thomas worked as a policeman but by 1910 he was a "retail grocery merchant". The couple had at least 11 children, but lost 4 of them in infancy or young childhood. They also provided a home for a widowed daughter, who was enumerated in 1920 as Isabella C. Cuddy, age 30 (and a granddaughter Katherine Cuddy, age 3). This entry is somewhat problematic as no daughter named Isabella appears in the family in 1900 or 1910. Perhaps Isabella is the same person as Mary C.C. on the 1900 census as Mary is not enumerated with the family in 1910 by which time she would have been 23 years old. Isabel appears to have married secondly Narvall [?] Akers a few years after the 1920 census was recorded. In 1930 she was enumerated as Isabel C. Akers, age 32, suggesting she was not terribly accurate about reporting her age.

Thomas and Callie's neighbors in Abingdon in both 1920 and 1930 was the family of Callie's nephew Warren Maiden and his family. The 2 couples lived on West Valley Rd; Warren and his wife Susie at #209; Thomas and Callie at #207.7,8,9,10 
Public Serv  Besides being a local businessman, Thomas served as the mayor of Abingdon.11 
Death22 May 1934 Callie died on 22 May 1934 at age 65.3 
Burial She was buried at Sinking Spring Cemetery in Washington County, Virginia.1
