6. Alexander Craig, Loyalist or Patriot
Alexander Craig was an undecided but seemed to be
more towards the patriot side. Alexander Craig was
more towards the patriot side because he owned a
business and some of the products he made England
would manufacture and sell. By doing this they would
also make the colonists pay for their own products.
Another thing that he didn't like was the tax on tea and
other products, so paying the tax makes it a little
harder to keep money to keep a family.
