    3. Just joined your list in an attempt to locate SALLY LORENSON. Sally posted 5 times to your Craig List in 1998. From the internet, I found this very interesting message [below] from Sally. The ALEXANDER CRAIG married to ESTHER STEWART mentioned are also the parents of my JESSY CRAIG born about 1786 ---and probably in Moffat, Dumfrieshire, Scotland. Jessy Craig was the second wife of JAMES CARR, shipbuilder in Harrington, Cumberland. Married about 1811or so. Any information about my Alexander Craig or Sally Lorenson will be very much appreciated.
