John Davidson Craver lived on Craver Road in Davidson County, North Carolina on a hill above the creek. He was the son of William "Billy" Craver (c1800-c1863) and his first wife, Mary "Polly" Whirlow (c1804-c1847). After Polly died, Billy remarried to Betsy Susannah Essick (1820-???). Altogether Billy fathered 26 children, many of whom died young. A marriage date of 01 Jan 1840 (or 1841) is given for Billy and Betsy, if true, Polly probably didn't die in 1847,
