Crails in the E.E. Barton Papers

There you have it. I have presented the information I have on the family. One last source reviewed was the Pendleton Co. [KY] Genealogical Society E.E. Barton Papers. Box 17 included the Crail family. There is one mention of James B. Crail [Senior] as the son of Thomas, who died in 1809.
There is mention in the Barton papers of Crails whom I believe to be related to my James B.

Also mentioned in the papers, a tie between the Crails and the Duke of Argyll, as well as the Duke of Marlborough, who owned Crail Castle in 1753. The family had already arrived in the Colonies by that time.

Crail is a fishing village in Co. Fife on the east coast of Scotland not far from Edinburgh.
