Samuel S. Craig in 1863 Was Bound Out at 9 to Mr. Bell for Farm
Work

SAMUEL S. CRAIG, one of the enterprising young farmers of
Muhlenberg County, was born April 8, 1854, in Greenville, KY, and
is the second of four boys and one girl born to Leroy and Martha
J. (Gibbs) Craig, born in Hopkins and Logan Counties,
respectively.  Leroy Craig was the son of Samuel Craig, a native
of Virginia, and of Scotch origin.  Samuel was a soldier in the
war of 1812.  Samuel S. was reared on a farm, and was but nine
years old when his father died, at which time he was bound to a
Mr. Bell untill he should be of age.  He then commenced life for
himself at farming and now owns 150 acres of good land in fair
condition.  He was married May 4, 1876, to Vitula J. Vick,
daughter of J.M. and Eliza J. (Williams) Vick.  Four children
bless this union: Vanna M., Iva, Harry S. and Shelby.  Mr. and
Mrs. Craig are members of the Methodist Episcopal and Baptist
Churches, respectively.
