Notes |
- Lieut and Adjudant, 50th Regiment.
- John Anthony Crause (1793-1864) was appointed from the Royal Military College to an ensigncy in the 58th Regiment in 1808, and was made Lieutenant in 1811. He joined the 2nd Battalion in Portugal and fought at Badajos and Ciudad Rodrigo before being invalided home in 1812. He transferred to the 1st Garrison Battalion in December 1812, and became Staff Adjutant at the Invalid Depot, Fort Pitt (Chatham). He was placed on half-pay in May 1817. He emigrated to the Cape in 1819 as a member of the small party from Kent led by his eldest brother Charles Crause, which broke up soon after its arrival. With his brothers he moved to the military settlement of Fredericksburg, but returned to Albany in 1822 and was granted a farm in compensation for his losses, which he named Spring Grove. He was made Lieutenant of the Fourth Division of the Albany Levy, and subse¬quently Field Commandant of the English inhabitants of Albany. In 1825 he married Sarah Hayes Boardman, daughter of the Reverend William Boardman. Spring Grove was burnt and pillaged at the outbreak of the Sixth Frontier War, in which he served as Adjutant to Major Gregory of the 98th Regiment and under Captain Selwyn. After the war Spring Grove was sold to pay the mortgage held by the government bank, and John Crause moved first to a rented farm at Cradock, and after 1840, to Porlock in the Graaff Reinet district. He died in Grahamstown in 1864, and Mrs Sarah Crause in 1892.
