The Craig's in Benton Co., AR., are not any kin that I know of to my Craig family. My father was born in Creek Co., OK. My mothers people are the ones born and raised in Benton Co., AR. I did not know there were any other Craigs in the county until I started working on my mothers ancestors. I have found no connection to any of them so far.
