To Crosshands : David you sent me a message via Ancestry. My subscription is no longer current so I am unable to reply via that forum. If you wish to send your email address via another private message I will be able to reply. Our Grahams were also bootmakers but lived in Carlisle and Kirklinton. Our John Graham b 1809 seems to have disappeared c1851 whilst on an advance trip to the US looking to resettle the family. The pictures I have posted on Ancestry are copies from church registers or photos of grave headstones (also have copies of wills etc). Very difficult to distinguish who's who family wise, but found many of them buried together at Kirklinton (thanks to a good local researcher William Bundred). OurGraham family were originally Scottish, said to have been displaced after the Jacobite uprisings.  Regard .. Liz
