Razzy, google arthuret grahams and settle down for a couple hours following up all the leads. Unfortunately, if ancestors were classed as labourers or husbandman, you may struggle (like me and Michael) but if you're from nobility, you might well be in the money. bob

At this point I need to follow up on John GRAHAM m Mary TROUGHTON April 25th, 1761 in Harrington, Cumberland. 
I am trying to find Johns' roots as there are no GRAHAMs mentioned before this date in the Harrington parish.

Another is the origins of George GRAHAM b@1758 who married Johns' daughter on Feb 19th, 1800 in Cross Canonby.

Two separate GRAHAMs.

I am unable to find a GRAHAM marrying a LUMB in my research so far.

Hi everybody..

Have any of your Graham relatives married a Doran/Dorn/Dornan or a Roney/Reney/Rennie in the Carlisle area please?

It is just that there is often a Graham living with or near my relatives, but I can't find a connection yet.

Looks like the GRAHAM in question is a woman, the marriage mates' name seems to be male.
This can be more difficult to find.
Do you have GRAHAMs first name?

The Grahams I have come across are:-

1851: George Graham b abt 1831 Kirklinton, an unmarried lodger living with the McAdam family at 9 Water Street, Botchergate  next door to my ancestor Thomas Roney.


1861: Mary Ann Graham b abt 1844 Carlisle is an unmarried lodger with widowed Ann Doran and children at Donaldson Court, Rickergate next entry but one to Joseph Roney and family.

Update 2.5.11 .........

1861:James Graham b abt 1841 Brampton - a boarder in household of Mary Carnaugham/n (55 yrs old), also a family linked to Doran/Roney

Hi Scriv2: I have just read your first posting regarding Grahams, Rennie's and Doran's.

My grandfather was James Rennie Doran. His brother, Robert Doran married Susannah Graham 1892 in Carlisle.  Susannah's parents were William Graham (born 1846) and Isabella Story (born 1850).

William had two sisters, Mary and Ann Graham, I am now wondering if Ann married a Doran and is the widow you mention in the 1861 census. Mary and Ann lived in Rickergate.

I have lots more info if you need any.

Cheers, Alison
