Kris found this on the internet and asked if she were connected to the family. And she is.
Sarah J. Craft was the daughter of A. C. and Pricy Adkins Craft. She was born January 28, 1905 in Millstone. She married Lee Hall. She died on January 9, 1969. She was my first cousin twice removed, making Edna our 1st cousin three times removed.
Lee Hall was also our cousin, but not through the Hall family. His connection to me as fourth cousin twice removed was through the Johnson -- still on Granny's side.
