Dear Mrs. Low:

I am researching both surnames MARSHALL and GRAHAM, and I received your name and address through the Perry Historians. Specifically, I am trying to determine the ancestors and descendants of a MARSHALL GRAHAM (b. 24Augl832) near Thompson-town, PA, then Mifflin and now Juniata County, a son of JAMES

AND SOPHIA ___ ?___ GRAHAM, the latter possibly resided in

Virginia. I believe JAMES GRAHAM (birth and death dates un
known) , oldest son of WILLIAM GRAHAM (B. about 1719), may
have been the grandfather of MARSHALL GRAHAM, and that MAR
SHALL GRAHAM got his first name from the GRAHAM connection to
the MARSHALLS- SEE THE ATTACHMENT.

If you have any connections to the families described in the ATTACHMENT, I would like to exchange information with you.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Jonathan Wert
