Does anyone have a marriage record for Adeline Bates and William Craig before 1840, Marshall Co. Al. Area?

A cousin found these letters in the Anderson County, KY library. They are from an Anna Belle Munday of Topeka, Kansas who is related to our Craig line. The letters make interesting readin but also contain family clues. If any of this looks familiar to anyone .... please let me know for this whole discussion in these 3 letters is about our Craig line from John W. Craig & Elizabeth Huffman in Rockbridge County, VA on to Garrard, Mercer, Anderson & Woodford Counties of KY... some on to Putnam County, IN and points west. ... thanks GDC Gary--I know you have been in correspondence with some of the Mundys in Kansas, so I thought I would send you the text of three letters I found in the Anderson County Public Library. Charlie--These letters are the reason for my re-examining the Powell Family connection. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Topeka, Kansas April 10, 1968 Dear Mr. Shely, Thank you so very much for answering my letter so promptly, and for the items you mentioned. Yes I believe you will be able to help me. My money is limited. I love doing genealogy work so much that I do extra ironing for the expense part. I am sending a family group sheet so that you will have a clearer understanding of what I need. I am just tracing our direct lines as far as possible and gathering as much data on the children as I can. When you get this far it gets harder and one has to do a lot of guess work. I think I would like a photo copy of the will of John Craig. I feel quite certain that he is our 3rd great grandfather. His sons being Frederick, John and Lindsey and perhaps the William mentioned. It looks as though Frederick was married twice since Lucinda was his wife in 1850 and he had married her in 1846. You may work on this for about 4 hours this time. Thank you. Sincerely, Anna Belle Mundy P.S. Is there anything I can look for you in the Kansas Census? We have 1855 - 1925. Newspapers from all over Kansas If we decide that Frederick Craig is my right line, will need the marriage recrods and etc. on his children. Also the same for Jesse Schrimsher. John and James married girls who were born in Ky. Fred married a girl born in Indiana, his marriage record may be in Indiana. A John Craig, son of or brother of Fred Jr. had a cousin visit him in Kansas from Kentucky in 1909. His name was Powell. Hugh was not in the 1860 Johnson County Census. So he may have moved directly to Missouri from Kentucky. I have ordered the Lafayette Co. Missouri census for 1870. I hope I have given you enough clues so you won't have to spend much time. I can only afford a few hours right now. Thank You. Are there any Scrimshires living there now? (Note from Amalie--you will remember that Nancy Schrimsher was girl next door to Bonnie Hahn's Owen County Craigs.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- Topeka, Kansas April 25, 1968 Dear Mr. Shely: Thank you for letting me know of the delay in your research for me. I have a little clue I thought I might pass on to you. While reading a newspaper dated 24 March 1890 I saw this item as follows: "John Craig is enjoying a visit from his cousin Mr. Powell from Kentucky." This John Craig was a son of James Harvey Craig and Nancy Schrimshire. He, John, was living near Burlingame where they settled in 1877 (Burlingame, Kansas). A William D. Powel age 14 was living with Frederick Craig Sr. and his wife Lucinda Hunter (in 1850 Anderson County Census) and family, Frederick Jr. age 24. I believe Frederick Sr. to be the father of James Harvey Craig. So this lets me know that the Powells were related. There may be a Craig-Powell marriage. I found the marriage date of Lindsey Craig and Mary Robertson March 26, 1834. I'm guessing that Llindsey is a younger brother of Frederick. I believe I will send for the will you mentioned of John Craig. This may help in my search. Sincerely, Mrs. Thomas William Mundy 922 Pinecrest Drive Topeka, Kansas 66605 P.S. I have other lines in Kentucky. Ballards Don't know where yet. McPhersons Was there somewhere 1824-1827 Rollins Bourbon Co., Ky. 1830 Dockins 1820-1840? George -Wife may have been Sarah Rutledge Do you have a Historical Library there? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Topeka, Kansas May 19, 1968 Dear Mr. Shely, Thought I should write again to let you know I have a copy now of the will of John Craig and the marriage date of James Harvey Craig and Nancy Scrimshire in Owen Co., Ky. The date 4 March 1851. Am sending a family group sheet of Frederick Craig Sr. You can see that I am just guessing at some things by what I can gather from the will and the census. Frederick Craig Sr. had 6 children in 1830 by 1840 he had lost the girl (oldest) and gained a little son. This is probably Hugh. We found out that there was an uncle Hugh living in Missouri in the early 1900's. John's will mentions a Henry Huffman. I found him in the Anderson Co. Census, but he didn't seem to have wife. Just children Wilkerson 25, Mary 23, Wyatt 19, Pleasant 17, Maria J. 1 all born Kentucky. He is probably a son-in-law of John. There was Frederick and William Sr. Frederick Jr. and Elizabeth Tindal I am guessing this to be Frederick Jr.'s daughter as I find John and Elizabeth in the census of the right age. A Frederick Huffman leaves a will in kGarrard Co. Book A page 200. It mentions Frederick and Elizabeth Craig and Henry Huffman. Also a son-in-law John Craig. I think there is a connection also with Richard Wheat of that area. When the Craigs came to Lyon County they settled on the Dick Wheat Farm. Perhaps the Wheat family came here first. John, Fred, and James were all in Johnson County, Indiana in 1860 then to Missouri about 1870 and in Kansas by 1880. What I would like to have is marriage dates for the family and it possible, death dates for those who stayed there. Do you have newspapers for 1909? I was wondering if there might be a notice there when James died 10 March 1909. I wasn't able to find one here, although I found one on Nancy, 20 July 1901 and 7 of 8 children. Sincerely, Mrs. Thomas Mundy HAPPY READING (Scott Co. 1840 Scrimshire, John T." 1 male under 5; 1 male 15--20; ?Is this John's son 1 male 20--30; 2 females under 5, 1 female 15--20. Owen County, 1850: #571--Scrimsher, Jesse A--farmer 44--Ky. Malinda--35--Ky. Robert--7--Ky. Elizabeth--5--Ky. Nancy--3--Ky. Thomas--2--Ky. Sarah--3/12--Ky. #613--Oliver, Nancy--66--N.C. Schrimsher, Nancy--19--Ky. This is our Nancy Craig I believe she is the daughter of Jesse, living with her maternal grandmother? Notice James and Nancy's first child was born in Franklin County, Ky. I had Mrs. James W. Wolcott work on this a few hours and she sent what I have so far. But was unable to find my James Harvey Craig as a single person. I feel he should be somewhere in either Anderson, Owen, or Franklin. Perhaps working away from home. Had hoped to find him at home with family. Nancy's daughter (Tom's grandmother Meranda Belle) named her children Fred, Daniel, Henry, Evard, nancy Elizabeth, Jesse Lee, George Clark, Besse Mae, Harry Henly, Hugh Marion, James Zippy, and Thomas Ellis. And you will notice the familiar names in the James H. Craig children. Thought this might help you to determine who belongs to whom? This James Harvey Craig was in Indiana by 1857.) Gary D. Craig garygdc@worldnet.att.net

My father was a Holloway that married a Craig ,as I am getting into this I find their are a lot of us cousins that are both Holloways or Craigs and they both married into the Boone (Boon) family.

Dear Listers, I don't think the lack of response to a fellow list members inquiry about a photo should necessarily be construed as indifference. I did not respond because I knew I could not help, so.....I elected not to clog the list with a negative response and I elected not to repond to the poster because I saw no sense in clogging his email system. I have posted the list on occasion and gotten no response.....and that is how I interpretted it.....no one had a response to offer. This is not a rude list and "most" of the time we are very helpful and friendly...:-)) As a matter of fact, this is the nicest....and warmest...surname list I have ever been on. The Cox list is very nice and energetic. They also feel that most of their relatives were dropped on this planet by a mothership from Mars, but the Coxes, like the Craigs all feel like cousins. We are a family....like it or not....and from time to time families bicker. I do guarentee, however, if the chips are down......this list will come through. Please try to not think the worst of the other guy......sometimes the other guy is just busier than a one armed paperhanger. ...........Judy *********************************************************** cato@primary.net ***********************************************************

I know my grandfather had at least one brother and one sister they were born in Philadelphia at least my grandfather was, but don't know where the other two were born or went when grown up. My grandfather Henry Louis Craig married Jennie B. Wilson (born in Ireland) in Chicago, Illinois my mother and her brother and sister were born in Chicago and then they moved to Dubuque, Iowa. It is possible my grandfathers brother and sister were named Alexander and Carrie. My grandfather was born in 1867. ----- Original Message ----- From: "darthur1" <darthur@iquest.net> To: <CRAIG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, May 08, 2000 8:28 AM Subject: Re: [CRAIG-L] Re: English Craigs/Donna Arthur > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > --------------B0BA9064AED84AF6FE867DED > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > > Janet: > Not so far, but the only name I have of someone definitely born in England > is Roderick, born in 1740.

Hi, I would also like to have a passenger list of the ship called "The Betty" that came in to Charleston around that time. My Craigs lived in the Barnwell/Aiken County Area of SC. Any help would be appreciated. KS3096@aol.com

James: Your offer of the picture of the house was a wonderful gesture. But the last Craig in my lines was long before photographs, so I knew it was of no importance to me. That is why I didn't respond. Perhaps I should have at least let you know how nice of you I thought it was though. I do know the feeling of frustration in receiving no response to offers of help. Please don't let the majority's indifference stop you from being helpful. I'm sure your generosity will someday be returned many times over. Bud Caudle Guthrie, Oklahoma, USA

Hi CRAIG Cousins, James Alexander CRAIG from Northern Ireland needs help identifying a photo of a house he believes was taken someplace in the U.S. Since Rootsweb does not allow photo attachments to be sent through a mailing list, I would suggest that kind souls who wish to help, e-mail him directly at JLCR3210@aol.com and ask him to send the photo directly to them as an attachment. (PS If you hit "reply" to this message you are reading, you will be responding to the whole CRAIG-list not directly to James.) James has requested assistance with this in three separate queries on May 1st (per the CRAIG mailing list archives) and has reported a low response to his plea. If you missed the original queries, they are available to re-read in the Archives. Look for messages posted on May 1, 2000 with the following subject titles: Subject: [CRAIG-L] (no subject) Subject: Re: [CRAIG-L] Apology to any Offended members(Change subject) Subject: Re: [CRAIG-L] JOHN CRAIG b: 15 Feb 1758 (Andrew + Agnes) Again, to get the photo itself, you will need to request it directly from James. I'm sure with the many subscribers who live in the U.S. that a few CRAIG Cousins will be willing to lend a hand (or at least a set of eyes!) Happy Hunting and Helping, Beth Shields, CRAIG Team 18 Leader (who respectively requests list members refrain from using pejorative terms in describing assistance from others and who equally respectively requests that list members use their best efforts to help others in assisting them by verifying that their subject lines accurately reflect the nature of their message/query.)

I realize that some of you may not be affected by this initially, but in reality all of us could be impacted by it eventually. I thought you'd want to see this and maybe join in the effort to prevent the destruction of these two cemeteries. Donna -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Sullivan Co. Cemetery Resent-Date: Sat, 6 May 2000 20:31:18 -0700 (PDT) Resent-From: INGREENE-L@rootsweb.com Date: Sat, 6 May 2000 22:33:31 -0500 From: "Diane Drogich" <ddrogich@custom.net> To: INGREENE-L@rootsweb.com Hi all, I wanted to pass along some information I have received about a cemetery or 2 in Sullivan Co. According to this information, a cemetery named Brainer Cemetery is currently in danger of being moved by a local coal company. This cemetery is said to be a Civil War cemetery, though I don't know if this means a Civil War era cemetery or a cemetery with Civil War vets buried there. The mine has ran several ads in a Sullivan-area newspaper, so my sources say, and the deadline for family to protest was supposed to be this past Thursday or Friday. I wish I had learned of this earlier so I could've passed it along much sooner. There is another cemetery that the mine wants to move. It is said to be the Bennett Cemetery. I don't know where it's located, except near Hymera. The Brainer Cemetery is located on County Road 300E in Sullivan Co. If anyone has any information about this, please feel free to post it to the list. I hope my source (a guy from Sullivan Co. who works with my husband) has given accurate information and I'm passing along helpful info to you all. I felt I should go ahead and post this even without knowing all the story, though, as I think cemetery removal is something people should know about. Many Greene Co. families moved back and forth between here and Sullivan Co., so ties between our area and the Sullivan area are strong. I thought maybe someone on our list might know more about this situation and could shed some light on it. Also, anyone with a listing of either the Brainer or Bennett Cemeteries can feel free to post listings to this list if they would like. Maybe someone will recognize a family member of theirs. Diane :) Greene Co., INGenWeb CC

John and all ... maybe it is time to revisit how to handle photos on the list .... a number of you already stated some of the pieces and parts but maybe an addition to the info you send to the new list member is in order???. something like: * Do not attempt to send photos as an attachment or included in the body of you email to this list. * Send any photos (Using only the .JPG file type, i.e.., JPEG format) to the following address (?????) for posting on a web page, include any descriptive information you wish shown with the photo. * You may also indicate that you will send a photo of such and such, via a private email reply, to anyone requesting it directly from you. (Again, please use the JPEG format to keep transmission time to a reasonable limit.) What do you think. Gary D. Craig garygdc@worldnet.att.net ----- Original Message ----- From: "Edward A.

I don't recall anyone trying to send a photo to the LIST as a whole. I do recall someone asking one or several of us if we'd accept one. There is a difference. Ima J.
