Kraig emigrated from Denmark to work for his uncle, Mathias. P. Moller in Hagerstown, where he worked for 3 years. He subsequently moved to New York City to work with Jardine, then with Odell, and then with the Owing Company. He established his own shop in Binghamton in 1896, and is listed in the local directories as an organbuilder up until the early 1940s.
