James this is William Alford Craig and
his family.I will give you the names like they are listed on the
back of the picture. The spelling of his wife`s name maybe wrong. It
is written in mothers Handwriting and sometimes she had a problem
with spelling as she never finished school.I noticed that you
spelled it different. You may have the more accurate spelling,I
don`t Know. You can research it if you want to.From left to right on
back row.John Craig,Frank Craig,Jim Craig, Harve Craig,Grand Paw
Craig (William Alford Craig) Grand Mother (Gran) Craig (Ella
Jane Craig),Lyda Craig, Sarah(Aunt Med) Craig,Aunt Dude by the
table(Lula Ruth),Tina Craig (Ruby
Sharp`s Mother).
William Alford`s
wife was known by her family as Gran.Mother said that is all she
knew her by for years.If mothers spelling of the name is wrong,this
may be the reason.Kinda like I rember when I was a kid, the first
time I heard Aunt Dude referred to as Ruth Cunningham, I didn`t Know
who they were talking about..
Another little bit of
trivia for someone serious about researching the family
tree : Uncle Haskell`s (Hacky) name was Don Haskell Procter.Aunt
Bessie`s pet name for him was 'Donnie" so it could have been Donald
but I don`t Think so.His brother Nolan Proctor would know.I`d better
get some sleep
Rocky.
