Title: William James Craig and Agnes McCloy, Glenarm
Post by: Schickhaus on Saturday 10 August 19 20:45 BST (UK)

Hello, I'm looking for information about William James (or possibly James William) Craig, born c1800, died c1847, and his wife Agnes McCloy, born c1806, died 1899. After William died, Agnes emigrated to the U.S. (Philadelphia) with two sons, James and John Fullerton. I think the other children stayed behind.

I've found Craigs with similar names at St. Patrick's Church cemetery in Glenarm, and there are some McCloys in another graveyard up the glen.

I'd appreciate any information about their parents, especially, along with marriage and birth information.

Thanks!

Wm Craig and  Agnes McCloy were parents of two sons, James and John Fullerton??

Yes. James Craig (1837-1914) and John Fullerton Craig (1840-1926).

Other siblings included Hugh (b1839), Sarah (b1943), David (b1845), and James William (1847-78). I believe James William moved to Larne, and later to Wales.

I have more information on some of the other descendants, if that helps. Thanks-
