Hello,

I think you have mixed up the two William Grahams... the Grahams that settled in the Cremona area originated from Annan, Scotland and never lived in Edmonton.  Father William and Mother Jane, children: Thomas, William, Margaret (all born in Scotland) and Frances (born in Canada).

I hope that helps. If you have any info from Scotland on the above--I'd be very interested.
