I'm looking for an Annie Graham born about 1887, she married a William Lilley on 25th March 1909. Her father is named as William but his middle name is difficult to decipher, William Graham's occupation is a Carter. The marriage took place in the Church of Ireland in Lisburn.

So far that's the only one I've seen that gives William Joh Graham as the father, it seems the most likely and I have found any other leads so far anyway. That's the link for the marriage record between William John Graham and Sarah Williamson in 1878

A transcription of the 1909 church marriage record gives her father as William George, but note that word 'transcription' with due caution. There was an Annie Graham born in 1885 to father William George and mother Annie Braden, but his occupation was given as mechanic, so it isn't a convincing fit.
