Craig family.

Hide Profile

George Washington Craig (d. 1889; called Washington) operated a cigar store in Wilmington, Delaware. His wife may have been the Hester Craig whose obituary is part of this collection. His son was also named George Washington Craig (called George); he and his wife Lavinia lived in Salem, New Jersey. George owned a store, and evidence suggests that he had several rental properties in Salem. George and Lavinia had nine children. After George's death, Lavinia married Moses Casper.
