They appear to have had a number of sons, including a John born 1812 - perhaps your James' father?

The John you mention born 1812 could you mean 1612.  I am looking for a John Craig born 1609 and married to Jonat coustoune. One child that I know was Archibald craigie.  My John 's father maybe James Craig married to Margaret peters . Any help appreciated
