Crawford, Samuel Johnson (1835–1913) Union army officer, politician, born in Lawrence County, Indiana. In the
Civil War, Crawford recruited a company of soldiers as part of the 2nd Kansas Volunteer Infantry. He was later colonel of the 2nd Kansas Colored Infantry. As governor of Kansas after the war, Crawford opposed the federal government's “soft” Indian policy, claiming that the Indians “will neither improve nor cultivate the lands, and their occupancy prevents others from doing it.”
