Samuel C. Craig, physician and surgeon, was born March 2, 1850, in Harrison 
County, Indiana, and was the son of P. R. Craig, who was born March 3, 1806 in 
Virginia. He was in early life a cooper by occupation, but abandoned his trade for 
farming. After leaving his native state, he moved first to Ohio, while a young 
man, and then to Indiana, where he settled as an agriculturist. In 1827 he married 
Miss Elizabeth Hiestand, born in Pennsylvania in 1809. By this marriage they had 
seven children, four of whom are living, our subject being the youngest. He was 
early educated in the common schools of Iowa; but fixing upon the practice of 
medicine as his profession, at the age of nineteen he commenced attending a 
course of medical lectures at Ames, Story County, Iowa. His preceptor was James 
Bradley. In 1877 he came to Lucas, Henry County, Missouri, and commenced the 
practice of medicine, and since that time has remained there with a constantly 
increasing patronage. Dr. Craig was married March 8, 1877, to Miss Mary Shaw, of 
Ames, Iowa. They have one daughter, Winona Florence.
