1840 Census lists:
1 M (15-20), 1 M (20-30), 1 M (60-70), 1 F (60-70) Total = 4
In 1840 John C. Craig would be 23, therefore from above, John C. Craig would have been an unmarried head of house with a younger brother and his parents living with him. His parents would be the 1 M and 1 F [60-70]

1830 Census lists:
1 M [5-10], 1 M [10-15], 1 M [15-20], 1 M [50-60], 1 F [15-20], 1 F [50-60] = 6
In 1830 John C. was 13, his father 50-60

1820 Census lists:
3 M [<10], 1 M [16-18], 1 M [26-45], 2 F [<10], 1 F [10-16], 1 F [16-18], 1 F [16-26] = 10

From 1830 Census, John C.'s father born between 1770 - 1780
