Shari, I would try getting the death certificates/cemtery interment records definitely the obituary, but it being so long ago you might not have much info for the obituary. I would also check the Other Beaver county Histories, other than Warners! I checked my Warner's, here at home, didn't find anything, other than some bios on 2 Craig men, that doesn't seem to connect, though you might look into getting copies of them too. They're B.F. Craig Stephen A. Craig. Both men don't share the same parents, one is a doctor! But lived in Freedom. What areas did his relatives live in? Ya might ask him if he knows. Or he could go to the LDS Library Order wills ofr those years to see if they had one first then go them. There's a Wills index you could probably get off the BCGS.

He does not belong to this mailing list. His info and questions are shown below: Per Jim: I am trying to pin down the mystery of Sampson Frye, son of John Frye and Catherine Warner. These people listed below are buried at the Little Beaver Cemetery in Enon Valley, PA. Harriett "Hattie" Fry Craig is buried on a lot that was "originally deeded" to her. There are 5 people buried on Hattie's lot: Harriett Fry Craig 1854--01/28/1940 Shared Stone (Shown as Craig, Harriet Fry) Sampson Fry 1855--1881 Shared Stone James McCowin 1837--1917 Susan McCowin 1839--1936 Hester Kale 1812--1892 Jacob Kale 1807--1882 I have searched the Little Beaver Twp. census for 1870 and 1880. I speculate that Harriet must have been a McCowin or a Kale, since these are the names of people buried in the section that she bought. The big problem is that the only Harriet McCowin I find is on Page 9A of the 1880 Census, ED 211, Little Beaver Twp., Lawrence Co., PA. She was listed as 18 and the wife of Wright McCowin , age 24. They are living next door to Alexander Wright with Alexander Davidson on the other side of them. This Harriet McCowin would have been born abt. 1862. Of some potential interest is that on the 1870 census, Alexander McCowin is living with the family of Alexander Wright. This could imply a relationship between the families. I find no Harriet Kale in either the 1870 or the 1880 census. So I now have no connection for sure to establish the connections of any of these people. I have no idea why they are buried together on a plot bought by Harriet. The shared stone for Sampson and Harriet ony doubles the puzzlement. Also, would anyone have a copy of Rev. Robert Dilworth's marriages for the Enon Valley area that they could look up marriages for any of these people? Could anyone help Jim Fry with his questions?
