My ancestor is Joseph Craig who first appears in the 1880 Marshall County, Alabama census living with an Alford family. Joseph was orphaned during the Civil War and I don't know if this Alford family took him in, or since he was 25 years old, if he was a farmhand. Joseph married Sarah Ann Rebecca Attaway in Marshall County and they left for Texas before 1890. He was born in Georgia about 1855, but that is the only info I have on him. A question: What does the term "flannel-mouthed Scot" mean? According to family stories, Joseph used to refer to himself in that way. Thanks for any help. Ladonna Viertel
