62 a. -The Family of Crosbie can lay claim to a Norman descent.
In the Lyon office there is a copy of a printed pedigree compiled by Capt. Howard Herries - Crosbie, Resident Magistrate in Donegal. He traces the decent from Sir John de Crosbi, a man of Norse origin, whose ancestors settled in Normandy with Rollo, at a place named Corbie in Picardy. The name was then spelt Crosbj.

Adam, and Thomas, founder of the Berwickshire Crosbys

Euphemia married Robert de Brus, 2nd Lord of Annandale.

Robert de Crossebi, born circa 1187, Ivo, and Ricardo, both of whom witnessed a Brus charter of land in Drysdale (Bain, i p. 635).

Robert, who receive a Brus grant of commonty in the wood of Stapleton. This Robert was succeeded by another Robert de Crossbi, the husband of Ada, sister of Edno de Carliol.

His eldest son, Adam, fought on the English side at Bannockburn, and was killed by his father.Robert, the second son, born circa 1290, succeeded his father.

Whatever may be the derivation of the name, Stodart has pointed out (Scottish Arms) that in the Shires of Ayr, Kirkcudbright, and Berwick, are places called CROSBIE or CORSBIE, from which the name may have been taken. Robert de CROSSEBI, of Oulcottes, born circa I339, and son of the above, was succeeded in the property by his son Richard, and grandson Robert, the latter of whom, dying in 1498, left two sons and a daughter.For the later genealogy of the family see Appendix D."
