I have acquired a fair amount of information regarding Archibald Craig m Agnes Gilchrist and although I cannot at this point (don't I just wish), tie into this line, I hate to see good information go to waste. My first thought was to post it all to the list, but it would be quite a lengthy post and therefore, instead, if anyone is working this line, I will be glad to give them what I have. In brief, Archibald & Agnes came to America with their two oldest children, Jane and James, about 1821 and spent about 7 years in the area of Charleston, SC after which they traveled to Franklin Co., IN where Archibald became the first regular minister of the Mt Carmel Presbyterian Church. During his life, Archibald was a muslim weaver as was his father and after arriving in SC, he taught school while he studied for the ministry. Children of Archibald Craig m Agnes Gilchrist in addition to Jane and James Craig include Nancy, William Dickenson and Janetta Craig according to his will recorded in 1844. The will of his wife, Agnes Gilchrist Craig recorded in 1887 includes additional names such as grandchildren. I also have a copy of an excerpt from a Franklin Co., IN history book which gives some detail regarding the family, including the information that Archibald Craig's name is engraved upon a monument at Kilmarnock along with five or six others who took part in the movement for social reforms. Apparently, he would have come to America sooner but he was imprisoned for his political activities. When his enemies learned that he had decided to go to America upon his release, they offered him the chance to go free with the condition that he go to America immediately but he refused, preferring to serve out his time, settle his business and then go to America as he planned. I sincerely wish that I could tie my James Craig to Archibald Craig (perhaps way back in Scotland?) but even if I can't, if someone has this line, I certainly would certainly be interested in hearing more about Archibald Craig.
