We already established that Robert Graham and family appear on the 1850 Census, in Jackson Parish, LA.
And, that the family was counted on the 1860, Rapides Parish census, but it is these 3 land registration records that help to show that the family did indeed reside in Jackson Parish until late 1859.
Certainly the youngest children who were born in 1850s were born in Jackson Parish, Louisiana. And several of the older children born in Louisiana may also have been born in Jackson Parish.
- Lucy Graham b. 1851
- Mary Ann Graham b. 1853
- Annie Graham b. 1855
