We are kind of stumped as our Gorhams are in Arkansas but traced back as far as John M. Gorham (born Georgia 1818 but says his parents were born in Virginia). He came to Arkansas from Georgia in the 1840s with Thomas Gorham (possible brother or cousin who married Almedia Denson in 1842 Cass Coutny, GA Thomas had a son Wm. & son James T. who married Nancy in Georgia, both boys were in the confederate army.) Back to John M. Gorham, he was in the Arkansas Cavalry Battalion 1862. His son James A. Gorham born 1-5-1848 and my line goes down from there all in Arkansas. We have lots of information on the Gorhams to Viriginia, but we are stuck in gettingMY Gorham line out of Virginia, into Georgia and connect the dots to John M. Gorham. Again, although he was born in Georgia he has down that his parents (names unknown) were born in Virginia.
