There is very nice biography of Samuel A CRAIG at http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/ar/washington/goodspeed/c.txt

Thanks Judy, this is so much easier than wading through those books. It's really neat when one's ancestor pops up in a location and situation they were in during the W of the R. Our library has the books, but they're cumbersome.

Ron and Maralee: Thank you for sharing your terrific recipe! My Craig ancestry is linked to my 5th great grandmother who was Janet Craig (daughter of David Craig and Mary Steele). David Craig was a Loyalist with the Old Argyle Highlanders 74th Regiment which disbanded in St Andrews, NB in May of 1784. My grandmother Janet, married Dugald Carmichael (who fought along side with Janet's father as a UEL as well). I have spent most of my efforts researching my Carmichael roots and have only just begun searching the Craigs. I have 8 known children of David and Mary Craig and am searching for parents, etc., of both David and Mary. Janet was born Dec 24, 1779 and the oldest. Her siblings were: David May, 1782 married Sarah Bonny Elizabeth Sept, 1784 married David McFarlane and later, (?) Russell James Sept, 1789 married Charlotte Walker John Sept, 1791 married MaryAnn Grant Mary May, 1794 married Thomas Sime Martha Dec, 1797 married William Gow Allen Nov. 1805 married Louisa Handy If any of the above happens to be a match to your ancestors, I would greatly appreciate sharing information with you! I have passed on your fabulous recipe to my Scot cousins on the NB-L and they all are raving at your contribution! Thank You, again! Enjoy your Holidays! Babs Barbara Ann Carmichael Banks Minneapolis, Minnesota 6th descendant of Dugald Carmichael and Janet Craig 5th descendant of David Carmichael and Margaret McLean 4th descendant of David Oscar Carmichael and Rebecca Harmon Cox 3rd descendant of Isaac Reginald Carmichael and Mildred Louise Daniels 2nd descendant of Nello Daniel Carmichael and Gertrude Eleanor Benson 1st descendant of Delard Richard Carmichael and Gloria Margaret Buffie

Carol I would need some dates to figure out if we are talking about the same George Washington Craig and Mary Craig. Or a location. My line of Craig's are on the 1850 census for DeKalab Co. Indiana. George was born November 4, 1857. Do you have any additional information that would help clarify if they are the same or different individuals. Mary Ellen (Craig) Krieg

I have made two copies of the portrait of Polly Hawkins Craig available on the internet. One is a large scan that will take a while to load, the other is smaller. A Georgetown, Kentucky historian has suggested that it might actually be a portrait of Polly Shipp Hawkins of Scott County, who was a mother-in-law of Jefferson T. Craig (a Taliaferro Craig descendant).

Hello Bill I was wondering if you have the picture of Mary Polly Hawkins which is hanging in a museum in Kentucky. If you do, will you put it on line for me to see. Thanks Cuz Wanda

Dear Ones: Here is the Receipt you have been waiting for. . . and a confession. I don't know if Elijah Craig (my 5th Great Uncle on my mother's side) ever made Bread Pudding or not. In all likelihood his 1st wife, "Fanny" Smith made the Pudding. Elijah confined himself to preaching, fighting wars and making Kentucky Bourbon! Actually Elijah Craig Bread Pudding is a misnomer, actually it's Bread Pudding with Elijah Craig Whisky Sauce. Since one can buy Elijah Craig Bourbon today (I have a bottle in my cabinet) it makes a nice story to tell your friends as they eat the Pudding (if you are not a Terrible Toliver descendant, this story is, of course, useless). OK, here it is: Bread Pudding 1 loaf 3 day old raisin bread (frequently the 2 day old bread store will give you this) torn into small pieces or cubed. 1 quart milk 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 4 eggs, beaten lightly 1 tablespoon nutmeg 2 cups sugar 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1 cup raisins 4 tablespoons butter, cut in pieces Mix all ingredients and pour into a buttered 2-quart casserole dish. Bake 1 hour @ 350 degrees. This Pudding is simple and almost impossible to mess up. It is not, however, designed for those on diets! Serve with the following Elijah Craig Bourbon Whisky Sauce. Elijah Craig Bourbon Whiskey Sauce 1/4 pound butter 1 cup sugar 2 eggs, beaten 1/2 cup, Elijah Craig Bourbon Whiskey Heat butter and sugar together until sugar is dissolved and liquid is clear (be patient, use medium heat and stir constantly so it doesn't burn or carmelize) Remove from heat and cool. Add beaten egg mixture, slowly, with gentle mixing and beat gently for about 1 minute. Add Elijah Craig Bourbon Whiskey, slowly, while continuing to beat gently. This is really good spooned over the pudding! Now, truth be told, this receipt comes from Louisiana Entertains, the official cookbook of the 1984 Louisiana World Exposition, p. 192, by Terry H. Easterling. A perfectly acceptable receipt for Bread Pudding and Whiskey Sauce appears on pages 1022 & 1024 of The All New, All Purpose Joy of Cooking, by the Irma S. and Marion Rombauer Becker and Ethan Becker. (you don't need to confess this to your friends, just bask in the story of Elijah's Bourbon, which all TRUE Toliver descendants should have in the house.) Please enjoy this during the Holidays and I wish all Terrible Toliver Descendants a very Merry Holiday Season and a very Prosperous New Millenium. Maralee and Ron Gollberg, Asheville, NC.

I have posted a very poor image of a photocopy of "Miss Fanny Craig" teaching a small group of Black children, Pee Wee Valley, Oldham County, Kentucky. Someone interested in Black Craigs in Carroll County, Kentucky asked for a copy. I know nothing about who she is, but it was in a scrapbook of items mostly involving Carroll County, Kentucky, which is about 45 miles upriver from Pee Wee Valley. Many items in the scrapbook are from 1871-1902. If anyone else is interested in downloading a copy, you can access it for a short time at: http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/wmadavis?d&.intl=us&.flabel=fld1&.src=ph Bill Davis wmadavis@kih.net ******************************************************************** * * * Fax (978)334-7850 * P.O.

Marilyn, I am most interested in your e mail regarding Andrew Craig. I would LOVE for you to verify the info you have, as it is my line too...and I have been stuck. I also have the information that James and John Craigs father was Andrew Craig, who was from Ireland or Scotland and died on retreat from Canada in 1776. James however was born in 1753, not 63. I am from Clark Co Ohio. My mother's maiden name was Craig. They are buried in the same cemetary as my mom and grandparents!! I knew that John had married Mary Skillings but I did not know James wifes name (I have his children though) ....James was my ggggg grandfather!!! How are you related? You may write me back directly to MDKJ1234@aol.com Marianne

Marilyn, Any chance your John S. Craig b 1758 had a son, more likely grandson, by the name of Edgar A. Craig b OH 1837 d MO abt 1907?? Shirley Antrim

Can anyone verify the existance of my Andrew Craig, born about 1710 and die about 1776....who supposedly married Agnes Graham.....who supposedly were the parents of John S., b. 1758; James b. 1763. John and James would fight in the Rev. War and both would remove to Clark Co. Ohio...John would marry Mary Skillings and die in 1838; James would marry Rhoda (Eliz) Waters and die in 1827-1829 in Clark Co OH. I have been told the above is true but I can't find a birth record, a marriage record for Andrew. Before I put this down in my family record, I REALLY would like to find a bit of proof that the above is correct. I have information on the sons....even have James' Rev. War record....cemetery records, children, etc. But sure would love to find absolute proof regarding Andrew and his birth, death, marriage. Many thanks...marilyn craig

To anyone who is a descendent of the Taliaferro line. I am trying to separate my Craig line from the Tailaferro line. I believe some of my Craigs were living in Fayette County, Ky in 1795 as were this other line. Could someone tell me, from the Fayette County 1795 tax list, which Craigs are descendents of the Taliaferro family as listed: James, Robert, Joseph, Widow Craig, Samuel. Also the same question about the 1800 Fayette County, Ky tax list: James, Elijah, Joseph, Joseph and the 1810 Fayette County Ky, Census: The 1810 Fayette County, Ky tax lists: James, Joseph, Joseph and Margret Craig. Thank you for whatever clarification you can give me. Rosemary Berry >rosebe@usa.net Thank you for your help in clarifying these names.

Team 1 lost a fine "southern gentleman" this weekend. Orelius Brown (O.B.) Craig passed away Friday, Nov 24, 2000, at Ashland, MO. He had just celebrated his 92nd birthday. He was the son of Coleman Cresswell Craig and Lula Hart. His grandfather was Henry Brown Craig. He is survived by one brother, Coleman Cresswell Craig Jr, one son, two daughters, five grandsons and 7 great-grandchildren. Uncle B always had a smile and open arms for everyone. We will really miss him. Rhonda Daly
