Thomas Craig was born about 1827 in either PA or OH. He married Lydia Ann Porter 18 Apr 1858 in Indiana. Their children were Debra Magdalene Craig (27 May 1859 - 30 Jul 1859), William Brackenridge Craig (1 Sep 1860 - about 1902), Mary Jane Alice Craig (5 Jun 1863 - 3 Jan 1929), and Charles Bernard Craig (23 Mar 1866 - 27 Jun 1935).
It is believed Thomas Craig died in Indiana because he died shortly before the birth of his youngest son who was born in Indiana. He is last shown on census records in Clinton County, IN, Madison Township. Lydia Ann appears on the 1880 census of Travis County, TX as a widow with her children.
William B. Craig married Emily Dove; Mary Alice Craig married Benjamin F. Catchings; and Charles Bernard Craig married Sarah Elizabeth Tyler (widow of Henry Thames). All these marriages took place in central Texas.
