On 15 July 1822, he married his second wife, Maria Musgrave (granddaughter of Sir Philip Musgrave, 6th Baronet), by whom he had five sons and one daughter.〔 At the 1832 general election Crawley was elected MP for Bedford. In the 1837 election his opponent Henry Stuart was elected, but was unseated on petition in 1838. Crawley was reinstated and held the seat until 1841.
