Brenda, What county in MO? I have a William Craig of the same years,1837- 1919, but emigrated Ireland in 1849 to Wisconsin. After the Civil War, he lived near Cameron, MO, with a number of other Irish Catholic families - Navin, Doolin, Tobin, Grady, Carlow, Farrell. He homesteaded in South Dakota beginning in the 1880s. I ask because I sometimes come across MO Craig information that does not fit my family. Mb -----Original Message----- From: Brenda L.

My email box had so much of this political yahoo in it, that I finally deleted everything but this one message. I apologize to all Craigs who were attempting to locate info on their folks; but I don't need the aggravation. I have a question or two. How do I find more information on any CRAIGS living in Indian Territory--late 1800's? My grandfather was William T. Craig, 1841-1921 (b: TN or KY) and he fought in the Civil War--serving out of Missouri. Q: Was there a William T. CRAIG in MO in 1880? He had a son named Porter Craig (Craige?) & a daughter named Laura Lee WaConnie (Connie) Craig. I'd be just as happy to locate Uncle Porter. One Aunt said he was living in Oklahoma City, OK during the 1950's and she said he was quite old at that time. So, he problaby died there. Since I can't find this family's origins, should I list them on the Orphans List? >From: john brandt <jbrandt@ucla.edu> >Reply-To: CRAIG-L@rootsweb.com >To: CRAIG-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [CRAIG-L] STOP!! >Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2001 07:39:38 -0800 > > >Good morning everyone, > > Yesterday I was polite.
