General Notes: Husband - Edward Graham, Sr.


Among the first settlers of Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, was a Scotch family by the name of Graham, sufferers with others during Indian incursions. In that county, Edward Graham was born; there he married and reared his family. About 1793, the entire family removed to Westmoreland County. In the summer of 1795, he visited Butler County, and made a choice of a tract of land. The settlement of the family in the northern part of Concord Township, Butler County, was finally effected in the spring of 1796. Subsequently, a suit contesting the Grahams’ right to these lands was instituted, and continued for a period of fifteen years, but at last terminated in their favor.
