Jocelyn, I have been watching this string from the side, because of a slight coincidence of names. Now with this info my ears have perked up. Do you know where Samuel was born, or who were his parents, or any other family connections? I have a very large Graham family who came from Ireland in early 1840s to Pollokshaws and Thornliebank. Most of them then went to Ontario later in the 40s but my lot stayed. I do not have a Samuel in my data who would fit, but it is a family name. My mob frequently lied to the census man and denied their Irish background, saying they were born in Pollokshaws.
