William and All, I really don't think Isaac came for KY, but then again, who knows, for I surely wasn't around then. Right now I am waiting for a copy of the Civil War records on Isaac Shelby "Shell" Craig. I was told that it states that his grandfather (gives no name) raised him, and that he never knew his parents, because they died when he was little. If my Isaac is the grandson of David Craig who is in the 1850 Census in Anderson Co, TN it shows listed as this David Craig age 55 TN Jane Craig age 55 VA Jane 18 TN Isaac Shelby 12 TN I am assuming this Isaac is my Issac. I am also assuming that the Shelby is a last name instead of a middle name. Boy I don't think I have ever done so much assuming! Can anyone tell me how I can get out of this assuming, and find some kind of facts. In the 1860 Census there is two David Craig's. I am not for certain which David Craig would be correct. #892/892 Craig, David 60 VA, Jane 58 VA, Lucy A 36 TN #893/893next household Craig, Jane 25 TN, John 8 TN, James 3 TN, Lucinda 10 TN #897/897 Craig, David 6? TN, Jane 60 TN, Jane 25 TN, Lucinda 8 TN, Elizabeth 4 TN, not named 9/12 TN As you can see nothing matches and everyone has the same names. Help! Janice ----- Original Message ----- From: William A.
