Phyllis, The Knox and Crag lines were covenanters who came with Rev. Martin from county Antrim Ireland in 1772 as did several relatives of mine. These familys intermarried as they were all covenanters. Several familys left SC for Preble county OH prior to and right after the war of 1812. There were three congregations of coventers in Preble county. I took and posted pictures of relatives gravestones from these three cemeterys on http://ohpreble.ohgenweb.net/cemetery.htm they went from threr to Bloomington and Washington county IN and left there for IA in the mid 1840s to the late 1860s. They then went to congregations in Louisa and Des Moines countys in IA. Many left there for Page county IA after a flu and yellow feaver outbreak in 1854-1858.My GGGreatgrandfather died there in 1854 as did a grandson of his innjust two weeks prior.His widow left with two of her grown sons for Page county in 1855. In Page county there are covenanters buried in the Covenanter and Spring Grove cemeterys. I took pictures again of relatives in tyhese cemeterys and they are posted on the usgenweb.com website for IA. I have several IN pictures also but they are not posted as I have not yet found a place to post them. Many other covenanters moved to KS in the 1870s through the 1890s. I also have many tombstone pictures for their graves in KS. There are many writeups for Craigs and Knoxs and other coventer familys in the Page county Covenanter cemetery book. I have a copy. This information can also be accessed from the Nodaway Valley Museaum in Page County IA. I brlieve they have a website and a volenteer can find and copy cemetery book pages you might be intereseed in. Glen Stevenson Holmen WI

Glen Stevenson Holmen, I'm wondering if my Robert Coulter family was part of the Covenanters who came with Rev. Martin from County Antrim, Ireland in 1772?? Do you happen to know the name of the ship and where I can look at a copy of the passenger list?? One of his daughters, Mary Ann, married John Stevenson, Sr from County Antrim, Ireland between 1773 - 1777. Another daughter, Margaret, married Andrew Graham from County Antrim, Ireland about 1775 in Chester, SC. Robert's son, Robert Stuart Coulter, took part in the Rev War at 16 yrs of age. I have estimated that the family arrived in SC in the early 1770's but don't have an exact date or ship name. Linda Coulter Hirst [email protected]
