The following obit was in "The State" paper, Thursday, May 19, 2005. With the names Craig, Powell, Heath, they just have to connect to the Old Edgefield Dist/Aiken Co. area. I know absolutely nothing about them. Just passing this on in case someone is looking for her. Just let me know if you can attach her to some Craig family and him to a Powell family from the area. Sorry for the duplication, but I don't know if some of the Powell/Craig researchers are on the lists, so I checked my sources for folks attached to the names and sent to the ones I could find.
