General Notes: Husband - Hon. Walter Craig
He was the youngest in a family of seven children, and when six years of age he came with his family to America, and was settled near West Middletown, Washington County, Pennsylvania. He received a good English education, and learned the business of surveying. He was also in early life a "down" river trader. In 1818-19 he was a member of the House of Representatives of the State. In 1837-38 he was a member of the State Constitutional Convention. In 1843-44-45 he was a member of the State Senate. He also held important county offices. A part of his life was spent in farming, but about 1830 he sold his farm and engaged in mercantile pursuits in the village of Cross Creek, where he continued for about ten years, after which he retired from active business.
In 1828 he became a member, and in 1831 was elected, ordained, and installed a ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church of Cross Creek, Pennsylvania, and continued to be one of its strongest pillars to his death. He was remarkably attentive to all the ordinances of divine worship, and ever ready to sacrifice his time, labor, and money to promote the cause of Christ. He died at the house of his daughter in the state of Indiana, where he had gone on a visit, and at his request his body was brought to sleep beside his deceased wife in the cemetery of Cross Creek.
