Crathornes by English County

These pages give details of the Crathornes in each county of England, before about 1800.  Click on the map below or on the county name.  The number in brackets after each county is simply the total number of records on the IGI (including any duplicates!). Counties in bold were - or still are - Crathorne strongholds.  And there is a general explanation of why the ancient Crathornes may have moved away from Yorkshire in the Exodus page.
