Philip Crouse (m Sarah Burt April 8, 1791)
Loyalist
Philip was born, about 1760, in the Province of Zeeland in what is now known as the Netherlands. Zeeland is a coastal province which can be found on modern maps nestled in the southwest corner of the country, sharing its southern border with Belgium. When Philip was young, presumably with his parents, he emigrated from Rotterdam to Philadelphia around 1763 to 1768.
Philip chose to be politically active as a British Loyalist during the Revolutionary War.

After the war he settled near Keswick Stream, Parish of Douglas, York County, New Brunswick.
