Family

Anna Craig, my grandmother, had the misfortune of her mother passed away young - at 35, I'm not sure of what, and William Craig remarried Armedia Smith.

Follow-Up: Had money? Aunt Fay says maybe Anna inherited (he was Judge apparently) to buy the farm??
CHECK WWI Enlistment - age looks right, same is right, but Brook, Nebraska as location? Check Fold3

William was born 29 April 1875.

Education

I have yet to find anything about Willaim L's education.

For these more rural relatives, I don't generally have addresses, the township is typically the best I can do.
