Hi all,
I am wondering if anyone has come across new information on this George who was born in 1764 and whom were his parents.
I am always interested in William GRAHAM and his wife Agnes who started to have children in 1758 in Thorniethwaite, Knottyholme, and Canonbie

Rogan, Johnston, McKinney, Irwin, Hamilton (Ireland);
Masters (Wiltshire, England).
Houldsworth (Sheffield, Middlesex)

Grahamhunter / Razzy,

Here's who is in my family tree:

William Graham (1743-1820) married Agnes Byers (b. 1741 or 1742) my ggggg grandparents
children of William and Agnes:
  John Graham Torthorwald (1765)
  Helen Graham Torthorwald (1771)
  James Graham (1771-May 8, 1855) m Isobella Borthwick (1767-1848) - my gggg grandparents
      children of James and Isobella
          Agnes  (1807) m Adam Edgar (1817)
          James  (?)
          Alexander (1809-1873) m Agnes Tidman (1811-1877)
          John Graham (1799-1866) m Helen Thompson (1802-1874)
          Isabella (Isbel) (1797-1870) m Thomas Hope (1800-1877)
          William Graham (1804-1880) m Hannah Bell (1804-1874) my ggg grandparents

      children of George and Margaret
         William Knockmains (1806)
         Margaret Westerkirk (1808-1880)

         Helen Netherknock (1812)
  Sarah Graham Torthorwald (1777-1855) m. Patrick Byers (1778-1850)

The full tree is at Ancestry (including my gg grandfather George Lindsay Graham's full family, and the rest of the tree), still searching to find out if William Graham's (b 1743) father is James Graham born in 1711.

(5th GGGGG)William Graham & Agnes Byers
(4th GGGG)James Graham & Isabella Borthwick

(4th GGGG)James Graham & Isabella Borthwick
(3rd GGG)William Graham & Hannah Bell
