Crutcher Family Genealogical Summary

Both of Kent 's parents are of American pioneer stock with European roots to Scotland , England , Wales , Germany and the Viking nations. The American ancestry is all Southern with many ancestors fighting in the War Between the States. He is a 7th generation Texan with 4 grandfathers who were early Texas Rangers, one killed in the American Mexican War of 1845-48. These men were Comanche and Mexican fighters supreme. One grandfather's brother, Thomas Jefferson Chambers, was the 1st Supreme Justice of Texas in 1835, while under the Mexico dictatorship (the Texans never trusted him thereafter, however, he gifted 2 Civil War cannons, that today, are on the front entryway of the State Capitol in Austin); another was mayor of East Dallas 1876-1890. Most of the ancestors were farmers, but a few were politicians, teachers, preachers, and tradesmen. There were some culls in the family tree, but on the whole, they were above average in achievement and land holdings. One pioneering grandfather, John Wildcat McKinney, signed the 1st Kentucky Constitution (a regional Daniel Boone equivalent) and several grandfathers were well known in their geographic area for a special deed or another. Kent 's ancestors fought in the Indian Wars, Revolutionary War, War of 1812, and WWII. The early ones go back to the founding of early Kentucky , Virginia , and North Carolina . A few founded early Jamestown . The latecomers to America were the Ulster Scots, arriving in America in the early 1700's. On his father's side of the family, Kent ties into the Campbell Clan, who married into the old kings of Scotland , starting with Robert III. These kings tie into the Irish kings, who tie into the kings of Judah of the Bible, who eventually lead back to Adam. On his mother's side of the equation, the trail eventually leads back to the Harris and Berkley families of early America , who in-turn tie into the kings of England starting with Edward III. This paper trail connects back to the 1st Saxon kings of England , about 500AD, which along the way, includes Alfred the Great, perhaps the greatest king of English history. Kent has been a member of The Sons of the American Revolution, Sons of the Confederacy and The Sons of the Republic of Texas . The family history is very rich and diverse in achievement.

Age 54.  With my two youngest, worked on it for 6 days a week, hour each day, for 8 years.  Test began with a 5 mile run in DFW heat, under 1 hour, rest of test lasted 8 to 9 hours repeating all we learned, from memory, past 8 years.

My life began different than anyone I have ever know.  It was boom time in rural West Texas, SW of Lubbock.  The area had found water underground, late 40's 50's, 60's.  And there was a lot of it.  My father fresh out of WWII, an infantry sargeant, was a serious man, a workaholic, bought a farm  in 1947, the first person to farm that land, it was pioneer time in West Texas and the "old man" was 100% American pioneer genetics.  We started irrigation  parts of the land when I was 6, aluminum pipe, 30' long, 4" diameter, hooks on the end to connect them together, one line was 1/4 mile long, about 45 pipe.  Dry, the pipe was light weight, but moving it wet, it often had water in it and lots of mud on the outside - moving wet, I went barefooted, and often was ankle deep in mud.  Summer time on my fathes farm was hard work time, Up at 5, in the field at 5:30 (2 hours before sunup), hour lunch, quit at dark, about 15 hours a day, 6 days a week, all summer - move pipe twice a day, hoe or drive the tractor the remaining hours of the day.  Rest of year was public school, sports, work when I got home until dark.  Moving irrigation pipe for an hour and a half, twice each day, was sort of like lifting light weights and I did that from age 6 to until I was 18 and left home, vowing never to return again.  But after 25 years of road rage in DFW, I inherited the family farm and have been farming it for 12 years now (age 70 at this writing).  I drilled 12 more wells there, installed 4 pivot circle systems (that farm and the place I live on too), tons of work - 10 years of 7 days a week, but not 15 hours a day, more like 10 to 12.  If you understand below remarks, one can see this lifestyle "formed" me into something more than the average American citizen - the right setting, trained by a workaholic father, a missing mother - it "formed" me.

I  have always enjoyed participating in sports.  As a boy, unlike now, there were no growth hormones in the chicken, beef and milk, and no performance enhancing drugs.  I was 6'2", 200lbs, and might have been 6'6" and 250, and faster, in high school.  I has been a jogger since 1985 and years ago, practiced Tae Kwon Do daily, with his two youngest children for eight years.  Past achievements are:

 - High School Football:  All District, All South Plains, and All-State running back and linebacker in 1968-1970 Texas football.  Go here, see 1970, 1A http://texashighschoolfootballhistory.com/individual_stats_by_seasons.html . Top scorer, all schools in western half of Texas, 1A-5A, 1970.   Last game of the season, senior year, 3rd quarter, my religion, my football career, ends in a split second - right knee. 

  - High School Track Regional Contestant, 1969, 1970, 1971.  Times were 50.9 400 meters, 22.7 200 meters, 4.6 40 in football gear: 6'1", 200 pounds.  Missed 220 yard (200 meters) State by a stride.  I loved playing bassetball.

 - Baptized as a Christian, 1996.  Starting years before and then after this event, I read the Bible, cover to cover 3 times, and listened to a shortwave preacher 5 nights a week for 20 years.  I went from an atheist to a zealot Christian, because of the instrument of one man, Pastor Peter Peters.  Amazing he did what the world could not do.  Go here for a few of his sermons - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_BE62mYDaeilZTbrZU0opTNbZMmr93Bb

 - Tae Kwon Do, Black Belt (Cho Dan), (age 54), 2007.  Trained for an hour daily, 6 days a week, for 8 years, with my two youngest children.  For an August 2006 fun sparring video click: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0Z5f_YNl9o . 

Most of my life was in Amarillo and DFW as a financial analyst and a practicing CPA.  I currently farm (12th year), mostly cotton production, own 900 acres, farming myself 4 pivots, southwest of Lubbock, Texas.  I am using a God-made bacteria that extracts nitrogen and phosphates from the air, and also helps break down existing minerals in the soil, the plant cannot currently use (mineral is too hard, not water soluable).  I think, in time, this varities of bacteria will most likely change fertilizer practices, across the world.  I am also trying bio's too, when possible, for harmful insects, bio's are in the seminal stage of use and development.  We will see.  I started using mycorrhizae fungi also, a year ago.  Go to webpage, crutchercpa.com, farm issues tab.

From the seat of age 70, it has been an interesting life, difficult, challenging, but a lifetime of research to questions concerning the world, and the people in it, the races in it, past civilizations, true Christianity, has made it interesting. The Adam book is seminal. My children were the most important part of my life, all 3 very special, very intelligent children - an (1) Attorney (2nd-3000 meters, 5th 1500 meters - Jr Olympics Track and Field National Finals, age 12; National Merit Scholar; Law Review; Rising Star; Partner in International Law Firm); (2) a Doctor in Genetics (Academic All American Athlete; Who's Who American Athletes; Black in Tae Kwon Do), (3) a Mechanical Engineer (Valedictorian; Black in Tae Kwon Do).  https://crutchercpa.com/kentchildren2.htm  Ages below are 65, 69, 70.

Age 65.  Working as a Financial Analyst and CPA most of my life, hair was short, attire was dress, started farming, working 7 days a week, for 10 years, let it grow and sun bleached some of it blond again.  Step out the door each day, and dirt jumps on me, stay nasty.

Summer 2022, age 69.

Age 70, August 2023 with my mother's sister removed from the picture.
