Jameson and Craig Ancestors

In September 1883, Orson Ward Hammond was united in marriage to Mary Eliza Jameson, daughter of Samuel Jameson and his third wife, Matilda Craig. Orson Ward Hammond had for ten years been doing carpentry work for the railroad in Texas. As described in his letters to Mary Eliza from Texas (see page ), he had become attached to the Southwest, and planned to settle there with his bride.
