Is Mary Jane (and Martin) child of James Graham and Sarah Burdett? John House, p 70, says they moved to Ft Wayne, IN, where he died in 1839. His family then came back to a house built for them by their neighbors, across from where Luke Parsons now lives.
A Sarah Graham married Elias Parsons 9/4/1845 [JCMR p 9]
