Crosby was born in Hebron, N.H., April 3, 1780 ; and he died in Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 30, 1864, aged eighty-four years and nine months. His parents, Jaazaniah Crosby and Elizabeth (Gilson) Crosby, were enrigrants from Massachusetts ; the former 22 from Billerica, the latter from Pepperell. His academical educa- tion was procured at Phillips Exeter Academy ; and he graduated at Harvard College, in 1804, in the class of which Andrews Norton, Samuel Ripley, Samuel Sewall, Samuel Cooper Thacher, a...nd Ashur Ware were members. Like most young men from the country who obtain a liberal education, he worked his way through difficulties in the pursuit of knowledge to a career of usefulness. He passed a year at Exeter Academy as an assistant teacher, and pursued his professional studies subsequently in Hampton, N.H., with Rev. Dr. Appleton, who was afterwards President of Bowdoin College. He was licensed as a candidate by the Piscataqua Association, May 11, 1808. After receiving calls to settle in Lyndeborough, N.H., and Freeport, Me., he finally accepted an invitation to the Congregational Church and Society in Charlestown, N.H.
