William A. GRAHAM, sons John Beecher and Duncan McFarland and daughter Vashti Victoria came to TX in 1851. W.A., J.B. and DM appear on the 1860 and 1870 Hill Co. censuses; J.B. and D.M. are on the 1880 census. Havens J. HAMMEL, wife Elizabeth Douglass BRADLEY and their family came to Hill Co. in the late 1860s. Obit of one of the daughters states that she was born near Aquilla, where H.J. died on the old homestead there, known as Hammel's Hill, when she was seven years old, in 1877. If anyone knows anything about these families, I would appreciate hearing from you. John Nixon
