    Notes 
    • John House "Pioneers of Jackson Co":
      "A James Graham moved from Monroe County, Virginia, to Reedyville. Mrs. Westfall, a daughter was born there in 1830. She tells me these Grahams are not known to be related to the Mill Creek or Parkersburg Grahams. He married Sally Burdett, daughter of John Burdette. They moved to Ft. Wayne, Indiana, 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]

      1850, the 3 boys are living with Sarah, Florence is next door and Martin is living with Mary Jane. Although there is a 2 year differnce in the age of the two Martins, I think it is more likely that it is the same person. The 1850 Jackson Co census, annotated by the JCHS, states that Mary Jane is the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Graham, but the ages of the children don't match up.
