He was the son of Hardee Thomas Craft and Ellen Faye McGlohon Craft
Marriage*He married Hester Ann Young in __/__/1867.2 
Death*John died. 
Deed*John bought property at Swift Creek, Pitt County, North Carolina, on on 01/15/1861. Spier Wetherington sold 63 acres to John for $246.80. The land was located in Pitt County on the West side of Swift Creek begining at a sweet gum in watering hole branch and adjoining Abram Barber's land. Spier originally purchased this tract of land from Moses Tripp for $380 on December 27, 1860. It was know as the old Failing tract.

In 1875 John's sister, Mary Craft, filed a Warrant for Bastardy naming Spier Wetherington as the father of her son, Henry Hazzard Craft.

One interesting point is Abram Barber is the ggg grandfather of Vickie Jean Humbles Braxton.

In Kevin Craft's email dated 10-30-01 the following states what Aspley said about the Craft Family. "My brother, John, married Hester and they bought land near Goldsboro."
