SOURCES:
1.  My daughter's mother-in-law, Millie Crawford Johnson, gave me much of this information herself.
2.  From there, I used Ancestry.com to track some of these families through the various U. S. censuses.
3.  Today, 5 October 2008, Mrs. Tom (Iris) Crawford contacted me with access to their page (located at http://mysite.verizon.net/res7zoj4/id3.html), from which I gleaned the information shown below in this light blue color.

We were fairly confident that one of these in the 1870 and 80 censuses--Moses Scott or J. W.--was the father of our Andrew. But now we're not so sure, as neither of the POB patterns match.

 This is clearly our Andrew. But he has the POB pattern of PA/PA/PA; therefore, I believe that NEITHER of the above two Andrew S. Crawfords (i.e., in 1870 and 1880) is he, since one has the pattern PA/PA/Ireland and the other PA/PA/OH.
