Brumfield-633 and Stewart-49721 appear to represent the same person because: Magaret's maiden name was Stewart, not Brumfield. She first married an unknown Brumfield. She then remarried widow, Daniel Craig, on 15 Jan 1763 in Pennsylvania.
Martha's maiden name was Stewart, not Brumfield. She got the name Brumfield from a previous marriage. She did not marry the widow, Daniel Craig, until 15 Jan 1763, so all of the children of Daniel Craig were born from his first wife, Elizabeth Carruthers. I have initiated a merge as no hints came my way when I was adding in my family.
