John - I think I may be one of the culprits. I had asked you a couple of weeks ago how to do that and you had explained clearly but then when I tried to delete everything beneath the message, the entire message was deleted. When I get a message, it does not say "Footers", it says "--------------Headers-------------------", followed by at least 28 or 30 lines of "Return Path:, Received from, Resent-Date, X-Priority, X-MSMail, etc." I would love to know how to print out an e-mail without getting one or two extra pages of text I don't need. I've been wasting a lot of ink and paper lately. Thanks again for a re-explanation. Barbara

Hello Everyone - This is to those of us who are descendants of this particular Moses, the "hatched on a rock, dropped from the sky by aliens, appeared in a puff of smoke" Moses who appears to have no ancestors he can call his own. Many of us (and we know who we are) would love to give him ELIJAH CRAIG & AGNES HAWKINS (both born in VA 1774) as parents because that would really wrap things up nice and tidy and take us all back to John Craig in Scotland in the 1600's. So, to those of you who have already been down this road many times over, from one who has barely gotten her feet wet, I have the following questions: 1) Does there NOT exist anywhere a birth certificate for this Moses? 2) Where did the original information come from that he was born in 1800? 3) Does anybody have any inkling of his middle name? 4) What can I do that you already haven't done to try to find his parents? (I'm assuming there are those of you who have been at this for YEARS already and I can't tell you how appreciative I am for what you have already accomplished!!!) >From my own standpoint, I keep hanging on to the Elijah/Agnes connection simply for four reasons: 1) The name ELIJAH has come down through my line thusly: Moses>John Warren>ELIJAH PERRY>Isa Perry>ELIJAH JAMES (and there are all those Elijahs who have descended from Taliaferro - I count at least 10 or 12 beginning in 1738, thanks to someone else's hard work), 2) My line was in Kentucky the same time the other (dare I say it?) Taliaferro offspring were, 3) The handed down family story is that we were Baptist and the men were either Baptist ministers or tobacco farmers which seems to mirror what a lot of the Taliaferro Craigs did, and 4) An aunt clings staunchly to the story that the bottle of bourbon she has kept all these years with the label "Elijah Craig" is from a ggggreat uncle or somebody which would plant us firmly with the Elijah Craig who discovered the process for making bourbon. (There's that pesky Taliaferro connection again). Obviously, there is no way this can be substantiated so we must file this in the "Wishful Thinking" category. Oh, one more thing, and this is really out there but I just stumbled across it. My ISA PERRY CRAIG named two of his five children, MELVIN and PAULINE (along with an ELIJAH) and I just came across a MELVINA and a PAULINA in the descendant list from the Taliaferros. Ok, you have my permission to slap some sense in to me now for grasping at anything. Thoughts? Suggestions? Drug therapies? Barbara Barbara

Dear Barbara, To delete the footers on a message scroll to the bottom of the message where you find the footers. They will start with CRAIG Mailing list, etc. Place your cursor at the beginning of the first line of the footers and hold the mouse button down as you scroll to the very bottom. This should put all the footer into Black. Release the mouse button and hit delete. That should delete all footers. To print only what you want to save varies depending upon the program you use. One way is to "high-light" the part you want to print, which is the same as what you do to delete the footers (scroll down the area you want, holding the mouse button down), this will put the part you want to print into black. Don't hit delete, instead go to the File menu and click on "Print selected ". If you don't have that option do the same thing but go to Edit menu and select "Copy". Open your word processing program and when you have a new page go back to Edit menu and select "Paste". Go to your file menu and select Print. I hope this helps. John

Hi Everyone, I am sorry to sound like a broken record but PLEASE edit your replies before posting to the list, mainly delete previous "footers". These are the lines at the end of the message that are added to each posting by the list and Rootsweb. Each time you reply another set of Footers are added. If you do not know how to delete them contact me and I'll help you but we need to eliminate all this excess space usage. My regards, John

Have any of the people researching the South Carolina Craigs found a good database for ships that brought immigrants to South Carolina via the port of Charleston sometime around 1773. In particular I am looking for the ship called "The Betty." I have only found one reference to it and that reference does not have the correct dates. I am looking for a passenger list. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks JCraig3708@aol.com

Hi, James, sure do wish you were researching the families of Russell, Paul, Bankhead, Gladney etc. I know that the Russell and Paul and Gladney family came from Ballymena. Hope to go there some day. Just want to see where my ancesters came from. I know that it must really be pretty. Just wanted to say Hi, and thanks for posting. I also research Craig, but can't get my Craig past 1850 in Arkansas, USA. No parents for him yet. His name is Gideon R. Craig.

Hi James I know it's not your county but atleast this one is your country . I've been trying to find info on a Hugh Craig that came to St. Andrew's , N.B. Canada from County Down Ireland . I don't even know if he is any relation to me . That's what I'm trying to prove. Any way , he came to Canada in 1819 with a friend , John Lowden . In 1821 he petitioned for land here and his petition said that he was 27 and that he had a wife and a child back in Ireland . I know that his wife was Mary . As thay show up in the 1851 census. But I cannot find any trail to say who that child might have been. I'm looking for a John Craig that died here in 1849 . If I could find something somewhere that could tell me who the child of Hugh and Mary was atleast I would know whether they could possibly be the right parents of my John. Any help you could give would be certainly appreciated.
