Volume 3 of the Dictionary of Virginia Biography included biographies of
Elijah Craig (ca. 1745-1808) and Lewis Craig (ca. 1737-1825), Virginia
Baptist ministers who were both involved in the Traveling Church (see
DVB, 3:523-524 and 526-527). In addition to George W. Ranck's article in
the Register of the Kentucky Historical Society (vol. 79
[1981]:240-265), their respective bibliographical notes also cite Robert
B. Semple's History of the Rise and Progress of the Baptists in Virginia
(1810), revised by G. W. Beale (1894), John Taylor's History of Ten
Baptist Churches of Which the Author Has Been Alternately a Member . . .
(1823), James B. Taylor's Virginia Baptist Ministers (1859), J. H.
Spencer's History of Kentucky Baptists (1886), Lewis N. Thompson's Lewis
Craig: The Pioneer Baptist Preacher (1910); 27, 41-55, and Lewis Peyton
Little's Imprisoned Preachers and Religious Liberty in Virginia (1938).
 
Best of luck with your research.
