hi,

it seems that isabella mitchell born 1823 daughter of james and sarah thomson married james graham 8/5/1842.

if you google or visit rootsweb you will find someone else researching the graham family with the mitchell connection.

Thank you so much Joe, for all the help you have given me.   Being a first time user I am overwhelmed at the information you have researched for me.   I will be in Kirriemuir at some time in December/January and this will help me to get all my information together prior to the trip.

Hi Joe,
I am amazed at the effort you have put in for me, thank you so much.
It will give my husband and I so much more homework to do before coming over.
