Wexford, Ireland. Tennant of White family at Peppardscastle. Served
as a dragoon under Hawtrey White in the Ballaghkeen Yeomanry and
wounded in 1798 Rebellion. John may have had a brother George and

Query |
Seeking information on siblings and parents of the Graham family.
George was the Chief of Police for a time in Perth town. His parents
came over from Ireland (I would like to find out where in Ireland).
George had a sister by the name of Jane Graham who married William
Burrows (who mostly raised one of George and Anne’s daughters,
Mary Clarke Graham). George’s wife Anne was born in Maberly
to Archibald Morrison and Margaret Ferguson, both born in Scotland
but married in Perth town in 1821.
The parents of George and Jane Graham were George Graham and Mary
Clarke, I believe. This is what I would like to confirm and to find
out more details of their immigration to Canada.
I would also like to share what I have on the family tree.
