This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Craig, VanDolah Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/WdB.2ACI/1983.2 Message Board Post: I have no information on your Finley line, but I am most interested in his wife Mary Craig. I am looking for relatives/ancestors of my ancestor: Sarah CRAIG, born 12 May 1767 in PA, married John VanDolah in about 1786 in Fayette, PA. They had 9 children in Fayette PA (1787-1807), and then moved to Fayette OH where they had one more in 1810. Sarah died in Fayette OH in 1860. I know nothing about her except she was born in PA (Fayette?), and she lived in Fayette PA at least from 1786-1807. This would fit with Mary's sister Sarah. Sarah Craig VanDolah's children married Shotwell, Stretch, Gregory, Gilmore, Stout, Davis, Hadley, Nutt and Ogden. Almost all moved to IL -- mostly to McLean County. Anything else fit?? I found only five Craigs in Fayette County PA in 1790 - John, Thomas, James, Thomas, and John. Perhaps William had already died? Any idea where his sons Hugh and Daniel are? I would be ecstatic for any clues.

Would your Craigs be related in any way to Thomas Barton CRAIG (Oct. 6, 1841 - Jan. 25, 1910), son of John Smilie CRAIG and Jane SPRINGER? Thomas was a farmer, I believe in North Union Township, Fayette County, PA most of his life. He married Matilda STENTZ in Connellsville on December 13, 1877. Would be glad to share what information I have.
