Marion Lee Crowley (1865-1933), the eldest of two sons born to Elizabeth Crowley after the death of her husband John R.C. in the Civil War, has been proven to be a son of a Peeples of the Henry and Lewis Peeples connection of Berrien County, Georgia, with John J. Peeples being his probable father.

Cornelius Hampton Crowley (1868-1929), the second illegitimate son of Elizabeth Crowley, appears to be probably descended from an as yet undetermined branch of one the Hall lineages present in Berrien County, Georgia.

Mismatches between an undoubted grandson of James Clarence Crowley/Croley (1858-1917), a legitimate son of John R.C. Crowley/Croley, and Crowleys claiming descent from the Jeffrey Crowley lineage of Virginia indicates that there is little chance that John R.C. Crowley/Croley was a direct male line descendant of that family.

A high resolution 37 marker match between James Clarence Croley's grandson and a Walls, together with the presence of a Wall in Chesterfield District, SC about the time of John R.C. Crowley/Croley's conception, suggest that his probable mother, Francis, "Frankie", Crowley, may have been an unmarried Crowley female at the time of his birth.
