BRICKWALL - County Down to Pennsylvania - Graham, Morrow and Maxwell - 1828 to 1830 John and Ann (Morrow) Graham, brought the family to Patton Township (now Monroeville) in Allegheny County in Western PA from County Down in 1828. Ann and John came to Pennsylvania in 1828 and settled near Pittsburgh. They brought with them four sons (William, Christopher, James and John) and their families. They were joined two years later by their daughter Agnes and her husband Hugh Graham. Hugh Maxwell (1800-1860) married Agnes Graham (1795-1870) in County Down on October 9, 1820. They came to Pennsylvania in 1830. All of the above are buried at Crossroads Presbyterian Church Cemetery in Monroeville PA. I cannot establish ancestors of John Graham, Ann Morrow Graham or Hugh Maxwell.
