Stephen Graham1

(circa 1774 - 25 December 1856)
Father | Andrew Graham (cir. Apr 1736 - cir. Apr 1801); The initial tentative id of Andrew as Stephen's father was based on the 1774 baptism in Bewcastle of a Stephen to an Andrew and Jane Routledge of Craggs actually being the same Andrew & Jane Graham of Craggs a year or so before. This baptism entry "mistake" of the wrong surname being reinforced by the will of Andrew's brother Grimston who refers to Steven as "son of my late brother Andrew" and absence of any evidence saying a Routledge couple of this name existed in the area at this time2,3,4 |
Mother | Jane Graham (say 1736 - aft. 1804); The tentative id of Jane as the mother of Stephen is based on the 1774 baptism in Bewcastle of a Stephen to an Andrew and Jane Routledge of Craggs actually being the same Andrew & Jane Graham of Craggs a year or so before2,3 |
Relationship | 3rd great-grandfather of Lorna Henderson |

E. & O. E. Some/most parish records are rather hard to read and names, places hard to interpret, particularly if you are unfamiliar with an area.
