Mary There are two John Craigs listed in Cabell the most likely would be John H age 24 born in Rockbridge County Va he had a sister Mary Craig who married a Peter Bates and later generations married Craigs from Rockbridge. This John married a Benjaminah F. Karnes from Monroe Co. Va. on Oct. 10 1877 the other John married a Ruth Ann Crop in 1863. This Johns parents were Robert and Nancy. I would look in those two counties. mentioned. KYOWVA Genealogy Society now has copies of some marriage license at their facility covering these two years. I am not sure if the Benjaminah would have any other information on it for the later years. Maybe she went by the nickname Mary.
