It has been quite some time since I posted this query about Gideon R. Craig. I quite sure that he has parents somewhere. Surely he didn't come from outer space, but haven't been able to find him before 1850 census in Ark. Gideon was b. 1830 in Tenn. d. abt 1903 in Ark. he was married in 1865-67 to Fredonia A. Pearce b. 1842 in Tenn. also, she died before 1900 probably in Ark although some of their children were in Texas by 1900. Children of Gideon and Donna were Nancy Ann b. 1866; John Calvin b. 1868; (my line) Gideon Ninon b. 1872; Charles Jefferson b. 1881; Florence b. 1886. Sure hope someone knows of this family. Thanks Pat Freeman
