O.R.L. Croiser- info

[10]His late autobiography sums up his secondary education as follows: 2 years at Lima Seminary (probably 1840-1842), 2 years at Geneseo Academy (1842 to Fall 1843) and, much later, after his abandonment of the shut-door, two years at the University of Rochester. We have no records of the subjects he studied. See The Daily Messenger, Canandaigua N.Y, Nov. 22, 1923, “Early History of Ontario County Revealed in Story of late Owen R. L. Crozier.”
[11]In his answer to the seminary educated Charles Beecher (one of the brothers of famed Harriet Beecher Stowe) who criticized his scapegoat theology, Crozier announced that he would stop publication of the Day-Dawn with the September 1847 issue (TheBible Advocate, March 1848). Later he explained that he gave up the conclusions of his article in the Extra one year after he ceased publication of his journal (TheAdventHarbinger, 9/30/1849, Vol.17, No.15, p.111-115)

[1] Owen Crozier’s autobiography, published on Thursday, 11/22/1923 in the Ontario Daily Messenger of Canandaigua, NY, Vol. 126, No. 126, pp.17-24, is an invaluable source of information covering his life, genealogy and his theological evolution. We intend to deal with the latter in a more extensive study. Complete Genealogical charts starting with the Croziers of Scotland and Ireland and including some living descendants is found in Fernand Fisel, Ancestry and Family of Owen Russell Loomis Crozier, Descendants of O. R. L. Crozier, and Ancestry and Family of Maria Polly Alger (spouse of ORL Crozier) 2006, unpublished.
