I have all these CRAIG names in my tree more than once. Wondering if you've had the opportunity to order the death certificates of your John and Isabella to see if the birth dates are recorded? Here's my line: John CRAIG m. Isabella WOOD in Banchory Devenick, Kincardineshire in 1792. They had a son John born in 1797, although I don't know who he married, this may be him. My line is with his sister Isabel, b. 1802 who married James CRAIG, b. 1803. They also had a son John CRAIG b. 1840. Other children of John CRAIG and Isabella WOOD include Helen, Alexander, Margaret, Jean and George. James CRAIG's parents are George CRAIG and Isabella WOOD, who also had a son John CRAIG, b. 1801. I don't know who this John married either, but just a likely could be the one. Other children of George and Isabella were Elspet and Lily. Perhaps we can compare notes on the latter years to see if we can connect. I've found Portlethen and Banchory Devenick to be full of CRAIGs and WOODs, and they all seem to intermarry. It can get very confusing given they seem to share alot of the same forenames!
