General Notes: Husband - Richard Graham


His father was born on the Atlantic Ocean while his grandparents were on one of the slow old sailing ships between Ireland and the United States, then the British col­onies, for it was as early as 1700. The grandparents settled in Cumberland County, PA, not far from the site of the great Indian School at Carlisle, and that section presumably was the family home for many years. [HBC 1909, 1458]

He was an officer on Washington’s staff during the Revolution, and when it was over he resided in Chester County, PA, until 1795, when he accompanied his son, Samuel Gra­ham, to Allegheny Township, Butler Coun­ty.
