Merriweather, Eskridge, McCrackin, Cobb & MORE!

Time for us all to Connect

Merri = HAPPY

Family

Uniting the McCrackin • Merriweather • Cobb • Eskridge • Cobb • Freeman Families—And Every Branch of Our Legacy 💛


As we gather in Indianapolis to honor one of our elders, we also have a chance to build something lasting. This form is the start of reconnecting our family—across names, generations, and locations—with purpose and love.

We’re collecting contact info to:

  • Keep in touch year-round

  • Build a directory of skills and businesses

  • Create an entrepreneurial council to guide our future

  • Celebrate milestones and support one another

This effort is led by Kim McCrackin and others who believe in a united family vision.


I’m Marquese Martin-Hayes, great-grandson of Annie McCrackin, grandson of Fredonia Hayes, and son of Marcus Hayes from Michigan. You may not know me, but I’m here for family.

🔒 Your info stays private. This is just for us. Please fill out the form and pass it on.
Let’s build a future our ancestors would be proud of.
