Hi Molly,
Welcome to Rootschat 
I have looked on the 1850 US census and this is the only John Graham I can see born in Athens, Ohio.
Township of Lodi, Athens, Ohio
Hezekiah Graham, 27, Farmer, born Ohio Mary Graham, 22, born Pa (I'm not good with US geography so no sure what Pa stands for!) John Graham, 2, born Ohio Richard Graham, 3 months, born Ohio

I can't see John in 1880
The only Graham's left in Lodi are Richard and his wife (Mary E) and kids (Ida M, Albert and Sarah A)

I found an Ohio death certificate for a Charlotte Ann Crow. She was born 12 Jan 1853 in Graham Chapel, Athens Co., Ohio. She died 27 Sep 1913 in Newark, Licking Co., Ohio of tuberculosis, bowels (?). She was divorced and no occupation. Her parents were Hezekiah Graham and Mary Angel, both born Athens Co. Informants were J.E. and F.E. Crow, 92 Western Ave. (same address as her residence). Place of burial was Cedar Hill.
There is also a death certificate for William H. Graham, died 7 Mar 1948 at home at 31 Wolfe St., Dover Twp., Athens Co., Ohio. He was born 22 Jul 1856 in Athens Co. He was a widower and his wife was Mary Jane Graham. He was a retired laborer. He died of organic heart disease. His parents were Hezekiah Graham and Jane Angel, both born in Ohio. The informant was George N. (?) Graham, of 31 Wolfe St. He was buried at W. Union St.
Also, there's a death certificate for James Gabriel Graham born 01 Dec 1858 in Athens Co. and died 9 Sep 1945 at 312 Fort St., Nelsonville, Athens Co. He was widowed and his wife was Jessie C. Graham. He was a retired painter. His father was Hezekiah Graham, and mother was unknown. His usual residence was 108 Sunnyside Dr., Athens, Ohio. Informant was Mrs. N.E. Crammer, 312 Fort St., Nelsonville. He was buried at W. Union St. He died of a cerebral hemmorhage due to myocarditis due to hypertension.
I found an obituary for James in the Athens Messenger on 10 Sep 1945. His daughter was Mrs. H.E. Crammer and he died at her home. He also had a son, Guy Graham, of Athens, 5 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and a brother William Graham of Athens. He was a member of the Methodist church and would be buried at W. Union St. cemetery. I also found an obituary for James' son Guy, who died 7 Aug 1966. Since there may be living people mentioned in there, I can send it to you via private message if you'd like.

Thank you so much for the information Shellyesq, I'm almost positive this is my Graham family, I have John's obit., but there was no mention of his family, so it's hard to know for sure. Again thank you so much.

I just wanted to let you know I heard from another descendant of the Graham family, and I again wanted to thank you for all of your help.
