	Handbook of Texas Online:
		Crawford is at the intersection of State Highway 317 and Farm Road 185, eighteen miles west of Waco in western McLennan County.
		The focus of the community shifted to the railroad, and by 1890 Crawford had steam flour and corn mills, two general stores, three groceries, a cotton gin, four churches, and 400 residents; cotton, wheat, hides, and corn were the principal shipments from the area.
		Still, Crawford was the only town of any size in northwestern McLennan County, and as such it was the natural focal point when small area schools began to consolidate with those in larger towns in the 1930s and 1940s.

	Hilton Lewis Crawford #861
		Crawford admitted involvement in the boy's abduction, but he denied killing McKay, who knew him by the pet name "Uncle Hilty." Crawford claimed that the murder were committed by a man he knew as "R.L. Remmington." Due to the extensive decomposition, some disagreement arose as to the exact cause of death.
		Crawford also provided a detailed account of his version of the kidnapping and murder which he said was instigated and ultimately committed by a man he knew as "R.L. Remmington." Crawford said searchers would be able to find two bullet casings, two slugs, and an unspent bullet at the body site.
		Crawford, 64, is scheduled for execution July 2 for the kidnap and murder of the 12-year-old son of a family friend.
