William H Craig

Sorry I meant children other than my mother in law. Im going to contact the library to see if they have any obituary notices for him which might possibly list his children. Thanks for the link...

Hi

As you say you are in Ireland,  did William Craig marry your wife's grandmother or was an illegitimate child born prior to or after he left Eglinton

If they married - you mention William is buried with his wife - is she your wife's grandmother or did she die/divorce and he re-married?

No he was posted here in 1942 and was shipped out before my mother in law was born in 1943. He left his address murphy avenue atlanta Georgia. He was single at the time. But never came back.

There is an obituary for Calvin F. Craig, William's brother, here - http://www.nytimes.com/1998/04/24/us/calvin-f-craig-64-enigma-in-klan-and-civil-rights-work.html 

This appears to be the burial of sister Mabel mentioned in Calvin's obituary - http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=44554322&ref=acom

And sister Marjorie's burial - http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=100123766&ref=acom
