Thanks Sam.  Through my Graham research I do know about all the people you mentioned. Have never been able to link them to my family. 

I have a number of reasonably solid facts that support Dundrod as being important to my family. A Robert Graham b?1758 d 28 Oct 1858 Dundrod left in his will 5 acres to Joseph Graham, "my nephew". This Joseph is my relative.

Belfast Newsletter Nov 15 1858 has his death notice, along with his son, Dr Robert Graham who died the 25 Oct 1858 of cancer.

Joseph Graham is on the Griffiths 1862 Budore with his 5 acres and his children on their marriage records give Budore, Parish of Tullyrusk as their residence. The John Graham (d 1909) that I mentioned in my first post is one of Joseph's sons.

This family intermarried with Nutt, Irwin, Milliken, Magee, Lewis and more families in this area. Many related burials in Dundrod which I have.

I do appreciate your help with this.
