Matriarch of the Tenth Oldest of Ten Early Crago/Craigo Families in America

After giving birth to two sons, Robert and Theodore, and giving them her surname, Mary wed William Sampson Bowen about 1867. Robert Craigo moved to Greenville, South Carolina, where many descendants live to this day.

William and Mary Bowen had five daughters of their own. As of May, 2015, Margaret, Martha and Louanna Bowen are not yet tied to this Memorial.

Mary Craigo is the daughter of Robert J. Craigo, a son of John Crago. However, since her son Robert Craigo was apparently fathered by a non-Craigo, the DNA profile of these Craigo's is quite different from the other Crago/Craigo lines. She is shown therefore, as the matriarch of one of the ten distinct early Crago/Craigo family lines now known in America

Gravesite Details

Mary's burial place is not certain, but I believe this is where her husband is buried.
