Craig Family, Please HELP!
« on: Tuesday 12 April 05 21:40 BST (UK) »
I am trying desperately to find emigration (or ANY) information on Thomas Craig. The Westen Canadian Craig's have been extremely difficult to trace. The only information I have is his wife's name (Christian Grant Hynes), and their son's information, which is Noble John Craig, Born 17 July, 1906, Pincher Creek, Alberta, Canada. Died 04 March, 1983. Any suggestions or leads would be appreciated.

Hi Andrew,

It looks as though Thomas Craig was born sometime in the 1870s.
Since you have the name of his wife do you know if he married in Canada ?
If Noble's name is a family surname coming from a relative of his father the search may be slightly easier.
Do you know what branch of the Christian faith was followed by the Craigs of Western Canada ?

Thanks Christopher...I have since discovered a birthday. it was Dec 25th, 1865. If that gives anybody more ideas on how to help. Does anyone know where to obtain emigration manifests or anything of the like?
