Whatever happened to Christopher Crawford, the adopted son of Joan Crawford?

Answer 1

Crawford adopted six children, tho she kept and raised only four.

The first was Christina (born June 11, 1939), whom Crawford adopted in 1940 while a single, divorced woman.

The second was a boy she named Christopher Crawford (born April 1941), whom she adopted in June of that year. In 1942, his biological mother found out where he was and managed to get him back.

The fourth child was Christopher Terry (born October 15, 1943). She and Terry adopted him that same year, and he remained her son, as Christopher Crawford, after she and Terry divorced. (According to Christina, Joan had changed this second Christopher's birth date to October 15 because she was afraid he would also be taken away.) (Christopher Crawford (born 1943) died of cancer (September 22, 2006, in Greenport, New York)
