My G G Grandfather was also James Craft whose first wife was Mary Louise Fahrner. They had one son, James Andrew Craft in 1878. Mary was listed as Louise in probate records after she died in 1889 in E. St. Louis, IL. Pauline Fahrner Dehler was his second wife. She was a widow and the sister of Mary Louise Fahrner and she had 4 children by her first husband. They were married in 1890 in Holy Family Church in E. St. Louis, IL. Together they had 2 more children, one of them being my Grandmother, Florence Craft. James Craft died at 45 years old in 1896 and Pauline Craft died at 41 in 1897 leaving a total of 7 children.

James A. Craft and Martha (listed as Mattie in some records)were married about 1900 and had 2 sons: Lucien, born about 1901, and James Andrew Craft, Jr. born 1904.

James Craft was born about 1851 in Cobden, Union County, IL. His father was Thomas Craft and his mother was Lydia Louise Gregory. Thomas Craft's father was Thomas Craft and his mother was Nancy Cox.

Hi, this is Patricia Dolan. I am using my Aunt Nita's sign-on information. She said she spoke to you some time back about our family history. My mom and grandmom have both passed away and they had a lot of information on our family and we're trying to trace all our roots. I've been fascinated for a long time by a picture my grandma used to have by her bedside of an an indian woman in full garb standing next to a man in complete cowboy outfit. I believe those were my great grandparents or great-great grandparents but I can't be for sure. I've been wanting to trace my roots ever since then but haven't been able to for lack of knowledge on how to do so. I'm hoping you can help me. I'm not interested in anything except knowing my roots and being able to share that info with my son. He learned from my ex-husband's mother that there is Blackfoot Indian on their side and I know we have Cherokee on our side. It's fascinating. Anyway, I know this post is 4 years old but I'm hoping you still use this address and would be willing to respond back to me and help me out.

In response to your questions, there is an SBaker on here who has information on this same family line as well and you two might be able to collaborate and get a more complete record.

If you would like, you can email me directly at patricia.dolan@us.army.mil

Thanks!

I read your post of 2007. Some of the children in the household of James and Susanna Craft in 1850 were the children of John Stephens. You may already know this, if not I will be glad to share what I know. There was a Nelson Stephens and a Nelson Craft. I show Nelson Anderson Craft born April 3, 1833 the son of Susanna Barnet and James Craft.
