Sheila,
Sorry to take so long to reply. Lucretia's Maiden name was Vanamen. She is the daughter of Elias and Lydia Vanamen. Unfortunately, I have been unable to find out what happened to her parents between 1860 when they are listed in the Marshall Co VA census with a daughter named Cretia who would be Lucretia and 1870 when she is living with the Ravencrafts. Her marriage certificate says she was married at Richard Ravenscrafts. Richard Ravenscraft's will, probated on 3/30/1880 lists the following devisees: Elizabeth (wife), Lucinda Jane Eiseneigh (Daughter) and Mary Arnold(Sister) It looks as though she was regarded as a dughter by the Ravenscrafts, but I have been unable to find any record of formal adoption.
