[HomeBrew] modifying the frequency of a crystal oscillator

I am building a CW transmitter for the 6 meter band.

I have a so called 50mhz crystal which seems to be slightly lower than 50
mhz (about 49.990 mhz). The crystal is a 3rd overtone crystal.

I would like to push this frequency up above 50 mhz (to within the 6 meter
band).

Thanks for any help you may offer,
