    1. RE: [CRAIG-L] CRAIG Team Leaders please respond!
    2. Jean Creswick
    3. Sorry. I'm leader of Team 14 and we descend from John Craig and his wife Ann or Anna who we believe are the parents of James Craig who died 1 Feb 1781 during the Revolution. He was married to Rhoda Niblick and owned land in Long Cane (no "s"), Abbeville District, SC. Rhoda and her children stayed on in the area for many years. We now believe, due to the extensive research of Ed Mason, who I have been unable to contact lately, that James' sisters married local men. I also want to put in a plug for Richard K. McMurtry of MacMurtrie Clan Family Records who has created a beautiful Colonial map of the Abbeville area and laid it over a current map of the area, showing James and Rhoda's land and that of their siblings. He can be reached at [email protected] if you would like to purchase a copy. I hope he gets encouraged and finishes the other part of Abbeville so I can attempt to find who Jane Cochran's father really was (husband of Agness Cochran). I have been tracking these families - Hutton, Pettigrew and Calhoun - and find much information. I am hoping that by going backwards in their lines I may find where our Craig's (and Niblick/Niblock/Niblack's) came to America and how they traveled to South Carolina. Over the years, many Craig cousins have contacted me and I have updated the line considerably....but have been unable to add to the website. My direct ancestor is their son Samuel who married Jane Cochran of Cedar Springs church in Abbeville. They moved to Alabama and on to Seven-Mile Prairie, White County, Illinois as Presbyterian "Cumberlanders" and on to McLean County, IL. Here is the beginning of the line as I see it right now. I would welcome any suggestions, changes or improvements.

Would the leaders tell us which Craig families they are leaders of? Is there a certain Craig family they are assigned to? Would anyone be leader of the Craig's I am looking for?
