FatherGrover Cleveland Crum b. 17 Dec 1887, d. 27 Apr 1975
MotherMary Elizabeth Scott b. 16 Oct 1892, d. 5 Jul 1970
Birth*8 January 1918 Isabelle Maidie Crum was born on 8 January 1918 in the family home on Norway Avenue, Hamilton Township, NJ.1 
Namesake* It is interesting to see how the name of Isabelle (Isabella) has come down at least five generations on both sides of the Atlantic. Isabelle was named for her grandfather's sister, Isabella Scott. Isabella Scott was named for her grandmother, Mary Isabella Borrowscale Scott of Cockermouth, Cumberland England. In addition to Isabelle Crum Rorer, born 1918 in New Jersey, there is Isabella Scott Bell, born 1916 in Cockermouth. These third cousins are both great, great granddaughters of Mary Isabella Borrowscale Scott, born in 1791. 
1920 Census10 January 1920 She appeared on the 1920 Federal Census of 211 Norway Avenue, Hamilton Township, Mercer, NJG in the household of her parents, Grover Cleveland Crum and Mary Elizabeth Scott.2 
Reunioncirca 3 November 1924 Six year old Isabelle and her father attended the Crum Family Reunion hosted by Isaac and Maggie Crum in honor of Isaac's brother, Daniel, who was visiting the East for the first time since moving to Kansas 47 years earlier.3 
Compiler's Comment Isaac and Daniel Crum were Cleve Crum's uncles and Isabelle's great-uncles. 
Event-Misc*February 1926 At age 8, Isabelle participated in a water pagent entitled the "Giants Garden" at the 'Y' swimming pool.4 
Event-MiscJanuary 1933 At a meeting of the Intermediate Society of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, 15 year old Isabelle was elected Secretary.5 
Education*18 June 1935 On 18 June 1935, Isabelle graduated from Hamilton High School, Hamilton Township, Mercer, NJG at the age of 17.6 
Event-Misc16 April 1936 Ten months later, Isabelle was appointed to the social committee of the Young People's Society of the Westminster Presbyterian Church.7 
Event-MiscNovember 1936 On a sadder note, Isabelle was one of the honorary pall bearers at the funeral of Jeanette Welch held in November 1936.8 
Compiler's Comment* Jeanette, who was only twenty at the time of her death, must have been dearly loved by Isabelle: the middle name of her first child, Frances Jean, was in honor of Jeanette. 
Event-MiscJune 1938 As of June 1938, Isabelle was on the Program Committee for the annual Children's Day at the Westminster Presbyterian Church.9 
Compiler's Comment22 September 1939 She received a Bachelor of Science degree from the State Teachers College at Trenton (currently known as the College of New Jersey) in 1939. Her degree enabled her to teach first through eighth grade. Isabelle had wanted to be a Latin teacher. The colleges that trained teachers in New Jersey specialized in particular areas. The college at which language education was taught was not close to Isabelle's home. Attending that college would have required Isabelle to room at the school. Money was too scarce for Isabelle to attend any other college than the one in her hometown. The programs offered at her local college were to train teachers of music, elementary education and business education. Isabelle had to give up her dream of being a Latin teacher and majored in elementary education. She was certified in the State of New Jersey on 22 Sept 1942, after teaching for three years.(Her college diploma and New Jersey Teacher Certification are in the files of the compiler.) 
Marriage*1 January 1940 She married Laurence Frank Rorer, son of Harry Closson Rorer and Emily McGookin, on 1 January 1940 at Warrenton, Fauquier, VAG.10 
Compiler's Comment Isabelle and Mickey kept their marriage secret. After the marriage license was issued, they returned to live with their respective parents. One of the main reasons their marriage was secret was because married women could not be employed as teachers. The public felt these jobs should be given to men who were supporting families, not to women who already had a wage earner in the home. Isabelle wanted to become tenured. She kept her marriage secret until she received tenure. 
Census 194016 April 1940 Consequently, Isabelle Maidie Crum appeared on the 16 April 1940 Federal Census of 23 Norway Avenue, Hamilton Township, Mercer, NJG in the household of her parents, Grover Cleveland and Mary Elizabeth. She was listed as single and a teacher in the public schools.11 
Event-MiscDecember 1940 In Dec 1940, Isabelle was teaching at the Kuser School where she was on the arrangements committee for the Parent-Teacher Association's annual Christmas Party.12 
Event-MiscJune 1941 In June 1941,"Isabelle Crum's first grade won the attendance award" at the final meeting of the season of the Kuser Parent-Teacher Association.13 
Event-MiscDecember 1941 Not only was Isabelle pursuing her career as a teacher, but she remained active in her church. She was on the Program Committee for the annual Christmas Treat at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in December 1941.14 
Event-MiscOctober 1942 She and Margaret Campbell were in charge of the beginners church school at the Westminster Presbyterian Church.15 
Event-MiscMarch 1943 "A leave of absence was granted Miss Isabelle Crum, teacher of first grade in Kuser School."16 
Compiler's Comment Isabelle had received tenure 22 Sep 1942. She took a leave of absence so she could join Mickey in Phoenix, AZ where he was an Army Air Corps cadet. Air Corps cadets were not allowed to be married while they were in training. As soon as many of the cadets received their wings, they married their sweethearts. Mickey and Isabelle followed this pattern. 
Marriage15 April 1943 She married Laurence Frank Rorer on 15 April 1943 at Phoenix, AZG, for the second time. This wedding was announced to family and friends and to the Army Air Corps.17 
Compiler's Comment After Mickey was sent overseas in the fall of 1944, Isabelle returned to Trenton and resumed her teaching career in Hamilton Township. Isabelle's mother, Libby Crum, took care of the infant Frances during the day. When Mickey returned from serving in Italy, Isabelle resigned her teaching position in order to stay home and raise her daughter, Frances. A second daughter, Louise, was born while the couple resided on Joan Terrace, Trenton. The family then moved to Sellersville, Bucks, PA where Mickey opened his Ford Dealership. A third daughter, Sherri, joined the family. Soon after Sheri's birth, the growing family moved to Quakertown because Mickey had moved his Ford dealership a few miles north on Route 309. The final child, Roxanne, was born to the family shortly before they moved to Yardley. Mickey had sold his successful dealership and purchased a Studebaker-Packard franchise in Trenton. Isabelle resumed her teaching career in 1962 and taught for a total of 24 years in the Hamilton Township, NJ. school system. She did an admirable job of teaching while also caring for her family of four daughters and husband. 
Compiler's Comment Isabelle and Mickey retired to Albuquerque. After having lived in the desert in Phoenix during the war, Isabelle had always wanted to return to the warm, sunny, dry climate. When two of her daughters settled in Albuquerque, Issy had the perfect excuse to move to the Southwest. While living in Albuquerque, she volunteered as the librarian for the Literary Volunteers of America (LVA). LVA's mission was to tutor adults who had never learned to read. She also had an interest in gardening. Isabelle won an award from her homeowner's association for the plantings she had nurtured in front of her garden wall. 
Death*4 February 2009 She died on 4 February 2009 at 808 Hackberry Trail SE, Albuquerque, Bernalillo, NMG, at age 91. The cause of death was breast cancer which had been diagnosed when she was 85.18 
Obituary* See photocopay above of Isabelle's obituary. 
Burial* Her ashes were interred at her husband's grave at Vista Verde Cemetery, Sara Road, Rio Rancho, Bernalillo, NMG.18
