John IRVINE and Margaret CRAIG family reunion
« on: Monday 06 February 12 12:52 GMT (UK) »
Margaret was my grandmothers sister. Margaret and John had Mary Fulton b 1875 and William 1877 in Scotland. They went to Australia  and had 10 more children.

Thanks to Roots Chat I have come in contact with 3 different branches of the family and put them in contact with one another. Are now planning a reunion in the fall of 2013

If any of these following names are familiar it would be great to here from you.

Mary Fulton b 1875 m. Saunders.. William b. 1879 m. Mary Dabnett..Elizabeth b 1879 m. William O`Connol..Janet b 1881 m Edward Dabnett..John b. 1884 m. Cora ?..Isabella b 1885 m Ernest Threadgold.. George Alexander b.1888 m Adelaide Dobie..  Samuell b. 1890 m. Mary Farrell.. James Roy b. 1892 m. Clara Howard..Margaret b.1893 m. Russel Stone..Charles b. 1896 m Emilie Eustice.. David Walter b 1897 buried, Randwich cementery, Sydney, 1920. David was a POW in WW1, died later from the results of his imprisonment.

Samuel started the first motorized mail route in Alice Springs abt. 1928

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Cheers.

Mary

Hi grandma
I have a Annie, Susan Craig on our tree, they were the daughters of Robert Craig and Martha Freeburn

Robert's parents were Samuel Craig and Annie McFettridge.

Annie and Susan came to Australia in 1926 the Craig family lived at
Bouverie Terrace Port Glasgow Scotland, the men in the family were ship makers. if any name sounds familier I would like to hear from you
