Love to see any Craig records. I have found a James Craig and Jean Broun. He is listed in 1749/58 as 'shoemaker of Capelton'

Thanks

There are no stones with Craig/Brown combination, sorry. Perhaps if you listed later generations (with maiden surnames) there may be a family plot with other names there.

I notice there are two Craig surnames. Could I have those?

As far as I can see 'my' James Craig died there in 1796 and his son and daughter-in-law William and Marion (Merrylies) CRAIG in 1780's/90/s

Thank you

I would think that this family are connected with mine because there are other Alexander's in the family. Will see if I'm in luck and they are descended from a sibling for James Craig (c 1725-1796). Hoping so.

Hi Keith, this may or may not be the same family, Hamilton is the most popular name in that area of Lanarkshire. This could be a younger generation perhaps? There are 2 stones for this family, I'll send them both.
