My grandfather, Thomas Henry Craig was born in Lambton, NSW in 1887. His parents were James Craig and Cecelia Craig (yes, her maiden name was also Craig – she was born in Govan and her parents in Kinnoull , Perthshire)
James and Cecelia emigrated to Australia on The Star of India - London to Sydney arrived 16 Jun 1876 with their 1yr old son Charles, who soon after died aged 1. They went on to have 8 children in Australia.
Hi - I have just started to look into the family history and decided I'd take a pot luck @ google and have found your postings. From what I have initially found from my family, it seems that my gg grandparents were James and Cecilia Craig with my g grandfather being William Craig, born 1877 in Sydney. The tree though then seems to go a little bit different as I have James's parents being James Craig and Chistine Miller and Cecilia's parents being Charles Craig and Jane Burman
As mentioned, I'm all new to this so am hoping you can assist me by letting me know if you have a brother of William Craig to your grandfather Thomas Henry Craig. I can then work out if the information I have is correct.
Thanks!
