I know he had to have parents, maybe siblings, but so far . . . I'm still searching. Hopefully he wasn't dropped out of the sky or crawled out of the bog! There are a lot of Holloways in this area - central Indiana. In walking cemeteries, I've seen the name repeatedly - usually in the vicinity of Craigs. Any connection to this area?

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.
