Hello Janice and all, I have found out that the Thomas Craig who married Peggy (Margaret) Stonecipher in Roane County in 1809 is the Thomas CRaig born 1782 Ireland and came over here with his brother Robert Craig Jr. This Thomas Craig migrated thru the Carolinas into the TN and TN river area, possibly around Stewart and Humphreys County TN and into Fayette County IL where he is buried. He died abt. 1840 and is buried at Craig cemetery in Hurricane Twnshp in Fayette County IL. I have been researching this particular set of Craig's because a Asa Craig is also buried in the same cemetery in Fayette County IL and an unconfirmed report says that he is a brother to my Thomas Craig born 1806 TN in Stewart County TN. Their father is suppose to be a James Craig who married Susannah Cottingin in 1804 in Stewart County TN. The other brothers are suppose to be Charles Freeman Craig and Eli Greene Craig also born in TN. I was wondering if you might have run across any information on the Robert Craig Jr. who is the brother who came from Ireland with Thomas Craig who married Peggy Stonecipher. If you have any other info on this Thomas Craig, Peggy Stonecipher or Robert Craig Jr. would you please let me know. If anyone is interested in these Craig's I will be glad to share info with them. Thank you for your time.
