Notes
a. Note:   Confirmed Parents Mathew Craig and Agnes Stevenson (different from the Agnes Stevenson married to Robert Blackburn's father). Bethia has a cousin named Bethia/Bethen Craig who is the child of Peter Craig and Margaret Martin. This other Bethia/Bethen was born Apr 16, 1820 and is not the one who married Robert Blackburn...as evidenced by Bethia Craig Blackburn's gravestone. Gravestone indicates that Bethia Craig Blackburn "died October 15, 1894 at the age of 75 years and 6 months". This would indicate/confirm that her birthdate would be in March 1819.
